Last of the arches sculpted

The NEBs bowling alley project temporarily took a backseat to some other pressing projects but as they went out the door we went back to work on the last of the arches for the bowling alley. Today we reached a milestone as the last two of the concrete arches were hand sculpted today.

There were twenty-six arches over the bowling alleys and another five arches down each side of the massive room, making thirty-six arches in all. We have five more beams to complete as well as twelve posts for the centre of the room.

The many pieces for this job required that we designed files and routed more than a hundred sheets of plywood and scores of sheets of plate steel. It’s been a big challenge to get it all right so it fits together seamlessly on the job site – more than 2,500 miles distant.
