Nice lighthouse. I just got done making one too. I made it for a guy I know that wants to put it at his place in Westport, WA. It's a copy of the Westport Lighthouse. The only problem is I didn't give him a price (still haven't). What would you guys on this forum charge for something like this. It's 8' tall, red cedar, working light w/stained glass lens. He delivered the cedar.

It's still in my backyard. I guess I should call him and get it over with. Thanks, Mike

(Sorry for the slight highjack of your post)
