The structures are assembled. If one looks closely they can see the wire supports and NBW on the hoist structure. I did a background stain in preparation for painting this time around. I included the finished ore bin as a comparison. You can also see where the glue lines did not accept stain. The rods were easier than I thought they would be. I envisioned having to drill holes on both ends but ended up drilling one hole and since the wood is so soft I merely pushed the metal rod into the opposite end.
I will start sponging on browns today.
