Someone earlier in this thread asked about the Sinclair porcelain signs that were fab'd.
They look really nice.
Would love to know sign company and city they are located?
Thank you in advance.

Still dabbling with this one until it cools off enough to get going on the other one. We’ve had a couple of meetings in here and some of the older folks were a little iffy getting up the one step! So I had one of these extra and decided to give it a try as a handhold for the step.

Just about to finish up the last item I had planned for the Sinclair buildings- the back wall in the shared patio. All the main woodwork is done and I'm going to do the final trim and stain/seal in the next several days. The wall is a combination of new cedar, some old shiplap pine that came out of a house we bought then demoed, and the lath is from our 1893 building we remodeled back in 2015. The transom windows came out of the Station office.

The left side is now being used for a coffee shop. We've been using the main station for community and church meetings so far.

Church meetings?? Wonderful, that explains why you are successful ,"The Lord". Amen! Could you tell me the exact address in case I get down that way, as I'd love to see the station and enjoy good coffee! Thank you, Mike

Sure thing- it’s on Highway 82 in downtown Henrietta, Texas. Next to the only red light in the whole 1,000 square mile county! The Texaco is diagonally across the street so it’s close by too.
Forgot to post- we had a local muralist paint on the alley side of the box building. We wanted something pretty but not something to detract from the station buildings themselves, so we had her do the alley wall. She really did an outstanding job.

Yes she is- her name is Selena Mize from Wichita Falls, Texas. She did the Roy Orbison mural in Vernon, Texas.
