    Looks cool. Hard to picture with nothing to use a reference as to size. You do nice work, but then you know that. :Thumbsup:

    Well.... Everyone that thinks it's an exhaust tip is pretty close..... Only, instead of carbon monoxide pouring fourth out of all those 3/8" holes there will be water vapor in the form of a fog...... Can't have museum visitors falling down dead you know.... That would be bad for attendance.....:Thumbsup:

    Wow, now I wonder what the exhibit could be?
    I used to work in the museum field.
    There's nothing like being surrounded by creative and talented people, like you! :)
    Your work is amazing.

    Jim.... I'm starting to think that dragon roof graphic needs to be changed out to maybe a different critter. Hmmmm, what should you go with? You know.... Something new for the dragon next year. Something really different.... I'll have to ponder on it.... Not horses... No, something totally unexpected... I know.....the critter needs to be yellow.... Let me get back to you on that... Something is forming in the back of my head... It'll come to me....:D

    Jim.... You seem to be pretty good with hammer and nails..... This project definitely needs a detailed progress report until completion....:Thumbsup: Are these going to be "Free Range" chickens? And how will they deal with or be dealt with by the the local wildlife?
