Chevy "Bow Tie" On Roof Of Shed
 ✖  |
Last summer I shingled a Chevy "bow tie" into the roof of my Dad's shed. It worked out so well, I'm now working on a Case-IH symbol for one of my friends. I started by making a shingle pattern graph on a piece of paper, and then drawing the bow tie to scale on the graph. The next step was to center the pattern on the room as best as possible. I spray-painted the design on the old shingles before tearing them off, and then counted the number of tabs between color changes.
It looks great from a quarter mile away, on the county highway. We're located about 6 miles south of Glencoe. (Joel Schauer, 17237 441 Ave., Glencoe, Minn. 55336 ph 320 864-4051)
