Furniture Factory (part 16)  

Walkway
To reach the upper storage racks of the shed a ladder and walkway need to be constructed. The walkway itself is constructed from 3x10 boards. The structure is on its side in this photo to show the walkway already installed. I glued those boards together on the workbench. After they dried, I carefully glued the walkway to the structure. Next, I glued the walkway support boards (3x7's) under the walkway and to the structure. This helped make sure that they were in the correct location. The circled area in the photo shows the first bracket arm installed under the support board.

The bracket arms are installed in this photo of the structure upside-down.

The walkway, its handrail, and the ladder are now complete.
