What have you made lately?

I been making horse "Standards" for Granddaugter(s) horse jumping. Lots of sanding, painting poles (3" x 8') for the Standards and smaller (2-1/4" x 8') poles for ground work.
Granddaughters having been helping with painting the patterns. I used 3" peeler logs versus buying Georgia pine logs at $100/ea or $150/ea if painted, plus shipping. Ouch !!! A wooden pallet was sectioned to make "flower planters" that will go under the bottom rail of jumps.

Bottom rail is at 3'-0", Novice Class jump which GD and her horse Vanna are clearing. Top rail is at 3'-11" which is considered Advanced Class for Horse and Rider. She is currently working on the 3'-3" Training Class, and then after that is the 3'-7" the Preliminary Class.
