I just saw on the news that today Holi is being celebrated today and people across the USA are celebrating it.  There are a lot of people of Indian decent here and it is pretty big in a lot of areas.  Lots of food so happy Holi SKB and put the meter away for a couple of days!  ~wve~

Yep. I have a couple which are for regular use, but for now, I'll take your advice.

We aren't doing the ceiling or the peak at this point... it is a garage after all and as long as the cats can't get that high to do any damage this works as it is.

The 4th wall is the next step!

Not sure why but I can't open the images.  I click on them and nothing happens.

That's weird! They show as photos on my page! They are jpeg's. When I click on the image it opens in Preview just fine.

I'll post one again and if it shows, let me know and I'll repost the rest again individually.

These panels are some kind of plastic or composite panels of strips of wood and some glue bonded together ?

It is compressed wood chips. Here is a link that describes it:

I actually like the way it looks right now, but I'm afraid the cats may scratch at it and it will become a giant cat scratcher so I'm going to paint it. That may deter them!

Can you see all the photos? 4 in first post and 1 in second? Wally couldn't see the ones in the first post, couldn't "open"? them. So I reposted the first one separately to see if it was just one of out "gremlins" at work.

Quote from: skb on March 30, 2024, 12:13:24 AMYes, I can see all of them.

Hmmm, I wonder why Wally couldn't? Will have to wait to see if Wally could see the single one...odd I posted just like I did the first set with just the plastic  up

Well, it is apparently on my end and now they all show up just fine.   ~tnk~

I still say Gremlins!

It looks good Barbara.

Thanks Wally! Yeah, I vote for the gremlins too.  It was too tempting to them with all the photos! LOL!
