Timber framed Pyramid

Maybe you need a Timber Pyramid! (10 foot)

"This Timber Frame Pyramid could adorn your garden, or function as a structural element in the great room of a log cabin or lodge. It's function is limited only by the imagination - we see a garden sculpture, gazebo, or timber frame roof".

"The pyramid is a very stable shape, this one follows the proportions of the Great Pyramid at Giza. It is eye catching from a distance, surprising and elegant up close. Classic joinery and tapered members add to the harmony of the shape".

EGYPT, 14 DECEMBER 1914. "In the shadows of the great pyramids and amid kitbags and Lee-Enfield rifles, an Australian Imperial Force infantryman encounters a kangaroo".

"Skippy was on permanent shore leave at Mena Camp, the British Empire's training ground in Egypt. According to Peter Stanley, principal historian at the Australian War Memorial in Canberra, members of the 9th and 10th Battalions smuggled mascots from home aboard transport ships".
