It
takes a lot of many different types of screws
to hold a wood building together. Different heads, diameters, lengths, pitches, materials, shanks. Self-boring is best. Torx. The morning starts on an east-facing balcony, snowcapped mountains pink in the distance. The clang of a trolley car, resurrected after hundred year hiatus. A sheet of plywood blocks the entrance. A hidden key, everything locked in a box camouflaged by trash. Energy comes from a post in the ground. I love carpentry. The materials, the methods, the absorption it demands. People need shelter. One sees progress. |
