BTW Rich, what size are the pallets that you are using. Last night Alex was asking and saying that he hopes they are no more than 4ft. |

These are door pallets which measure approx. 36"x80" so if they don't want them I'll just keep them in my shop, no big deal. I wanted to have longer sections not just the short 2x4 panels. I'm trying to have them so we can slide them around and butt them up together for different designs. A friend from Colorado told us about this method and said it works really well so that's why I just stacked boxes to shave weight instead of building the forms out of wood. Hopefully it will turn our ok.

Looking good Rich! You should do a test patch of the stucco and see if you can rip it off with your comp rig. |

Ok, couldn't wait for the foam guy so I spayed one panel yesterday. This pallet is about 36"x80" and the highest spot is about 26-30". Now I can pre-run all the options and be ready for Tuesday Nights. Now it's time for some shaving and contouring then spread some stucco. Last edited by no2hud; 09-19-2010 at 03:44 PM. |

Are those dumbells in the back round to keep your "pipes" big and burly?

After taking a break from my 1:1 I started working on section #2, here's some pictures of the three pallets put together. I used a knife and a sawzall to start shaping the first pallet so that it smooths out a bit before I spay on the stucco. The foam is really solid surprisingly, I can pretty much sit on it.
