Donde esta?

I don't know why, but it shouts Binghamton to me.

Spexxvet · 12-09-2011, 09:42 AM

Not Binghamton.

What is that sculpture in the front? Looks like bones or tusks. Chicken bones even.

Colonel Sanders Home for Wayward Youth in Corbin KY?

That's really amazing. It looks like wood timbers, but it's impossible to bend thick timbers like that. Yet, there they are.

There's an issue of Fine Boatbuilding or whatever the hell it's called where they show how the Vietnamese Bend 6" thick planks (read beams) when building boats. They coat the planks with tar and set them afire. When the wood begins to soften the push it into place with poles and some guy puts out the fire just in the spot where he wants to fasten the plank to the ribs.
