A pair of bridges

This week I made a couple of bridges for Nancy and Jeff's back yard. Not anything elaborate, just backyard landscape bridges but they turned out pretty good in the end so I thought I might show off the fruits of my labour.


It has been ages since I did any woodworking projects and I really enjoyed it. I ended up using some tropical hardwood - something called Ipe (I had never heard of it before) but it was beatiful wood and not much more expensive than the more typical local Redwood. According to the sales website, Ipe is sustainably grown so no Amazon rainforest was destroyed in the making of these bridges.
