Heart House
Additional Photos & Construction Notes

During the placement and welding of the re-bar, the heart was encased in blue plastic to prevent the wood from scorching.

 

This shows the jigging used to construct the house grid. Photo taken at the Coronado Terrace studio.

Detail of the re-bar piercing the heart.

 

The heart was carved from a block of construction grade Douglas fir with a chain saw. I enjoyed this process and look forward to carving large wood pieces in the future.
