Does any one know the supplier of this stone? A quarry in Alexandria, KY is not enough info to help me track it down to a supplier. I would like to order some. Thank you. »

I would like the dimensions of the pergola such as length from wall out, and size of the brackets. Also how were the supporting brackets made to curve like that. I am a novice woodworker and this intrigues me. »
RWA Architects This trellis was made to match an existing trellis on this house. It extends 42' away from the house. The brackets are 36" high and 22" deep. They are created from solid timbers, so the curved portion has been cut from from the timber.
