Home-Built 6-Ft. Wide Metal Arch
My wife Lois asked me to decorate the side of our house that faces the road, so I used 1-in. sq. tubing and 14-ga. metal to build this 15-ft. tall, 6-ft. wide metal arch. She drew a photo of what she wanted the top of the arch to look like and said I could decorate the rest of the arch as I wished. I hired someone to sandblast and paint the arch black. It’s decorated with flowers and cats, trees, a small picket fence and a cross in the middle. The color and detail work was added by Lois’s uncle. (Randy Kurtz, N6858 County Hwy.
