Description Clear white cedar, two lengths 10" wide and 14' long each.  These will be affixed under a roof edge as fascia boards.  The knot-work design is of
Viking design, it is a Borre-style (circa 850-950 AD) 'ring chain', the head and tail are my own creation.  I'd never worked with cedar before, and I can say without hesitation that this is some of the best smelling art I've ever made.

  will do!   Maybe I could print out all the comments and send them to the contractor as an informal petition to get them mounted asap.
