Daniel Paster Design Build

Installed the first, and smallest, of twelve planters I'm building for a rooftop garden in Morrison, CO. Raw steel with a matte clear coat framing red cedar with a shou sugi ban (Japanese wood burning) treatment/finish.

Shou sugi ban naturally makes the cedar resistant to fire, rot, and insects, and involves torching, brushing, cleaning, and oiling the boards. If anyone wants to learn about the wood burning treatment and finish feel free to swing by the shop, there's over a quarter mile of boards to burn for this project!

Special thanks to Travis Popiel and Green Man Landscaping for the contract and the action shots!

Looks like I can skip trying to find a pair of eclipse glasses as I just found out I can use my welding helmet!

Big things happening at the Daniel Paster Design Build Data Center this week!

Work continues on the upgrading of the Bearcam Media van, gutted last week followed by the installation of beetle kill pine paneling, and new, fully-custom lighting and cabinetry. Follow the link to his post on the progress:
