</div>Fixing up the shop for insurance is our primary focus. A<br>
prerequisite for this though is the ability for everyone who should<br>
have access to actually get into the shop. I'm strongly wanting the<br>
door to get setup with the powerbolt or whatever so general members<br>
can actually get in an get stuff going.<br>
<br>
Also, I'd like to do the railings Saturday as well. I'll have to get<br>
with Bob and Scott about what requirements those railings need to meet.<br>

<br>I think a steel pipe railing with cotton duck strung taut between would work nicely; alternately a conventional wood post and lattice-work filler may be the cheapest/easiest.<br><br>Bob</div></div></div></blockquote><br><div>I have a feeling that getting any kind of automated system on the door is going to require a rework of the door frame in a big way, but I agree that the the door itself isn't major issue. </div><div><br></div><div>Kinsey</div></body></html>
