This spring I saw a crack right through it and realized I had another project. A metal shop bent four pieces of 3/16 steel into "L" profiles six feet long and I tried to remember how to weld. Eventually I created the 1 1/2 × 5 1/2" 12 foot abomination you see in the foreground. Next step is to remove the wooden scrap and install the shiny new creation. Not today.
