Ya, good thinking, you get too many out there, they start yakkin', and a 10 minute break turns into an hour. Why not hand that guy a paint brush? Looks like the railing could use a little rustoleum!

Jon must work in management, because he knows exactly why only one worker at a time gets a break. They congregate, light 'em up, and 10 minutes becomes 30 or 60 minutes. :D :D Kinda like high school kids with hall passes to the bathroom.... :D :D :D

Thanks for the compliments, everyone. :)
 
Thanks, Tommy.

Arlaghan, the chain link fence is fairly easy to make. The frame is made from pieces of wire ACC'd together over a simple template. The fence fabric is cut from bridal veil. I usually dry brush some rust colored paint over the material before cutting the fencing to size. That way the rust appears to be even more random. Sometimes I also dust the fencing with rust colored chalks.

Hope this helps.
