<p>[QUOTE="Geoff10, post: 4472676, member: 76673"]Thank you Born2it for the input! I have done much searching since I first posted and still can’t find another that has the this type of “knock down” no tools method of assembly. Probably was considered a necessity due to the whole thing together has to be a few hundred lbs and is problematic for going up stairs, through doorways….etc. I look at my own pictures, and it doesn’t do the size of this any justice. The alter rail conversion was one of my first finish carpentry “projects”. Broke it down into pieces and started shuffling them around to see what I could make that was symmetrical and didn’t look like you tried to make something out of something it obviously wasn’t . It’s believable I thought. The back of the breastplate is one of the pew seat boards. They were all in tough shape with the water that went through the chapel and falling ceiling debris during the firefight…..I only have 4 pew ends that remain. About 2” thick oak. Thanks Again!</p><p>Geoff[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
