We promptly placed a call to Chris Bingham of Snohomish, Washington (on the outskirts of the mega-melting pot of all artist genres) after receiving an email from him stating, “I made a website documenting the process of putting the building up. We’ve been very impressed by how the SteelMaster Buildings thing worked – and your coach guy who gave Sue enough information over the phone proved to be a very effective straw boss.”
From the sounds of the email, we thought we might be dealing with an agricultural expert – a farmer. Little did we know we would be talking with real live hippie kindred spirits who love to have a good time, know how to get a job done, plus – they record awesome music tracks to boot.
He used the term “Straw Boss” in his email. According to Chris, this title means the head hauncho of a project. This would be the one passing out the orders, um, err, – instructions to everyone else on the job. Not his wife Sue, who was having way too much fun wearing her “Obey Me” t-shirt, amongst their friends who were mostly wearing their tie-dyed tees. Although Chris was quick to add it was the folks at SteelMaster who practically stayed on the phone with them during the whole process, since the directions appeared to have been misplaced. Hmmm…
Before we go any further with the SteelMaster customer flash backs of Chris and Sue Bingham, you may want to do two things: First, use your Google search engine and enter: www.bonepoets.com . Select a tune to provide the perfect groove-infused ambiance for reading this blog-post. Their version of “Scarborough Fair” from BellaDonna Smiles is a real treat.
Now that you have tuned in, Bone Poets Orchestra describes their music as “Eight tasty players wrapped in a delicious groove with a chewy psychedelic center.” Further, the head line on their web-page reads: “Psychotropic string rock in the tradition of Jethro Tull, ELO, Moody Blues and other hallucinogenic masters.”
Next, tear yourself away from the hypnotic graphics that go along with the track and enter http://www.gaiaconsort.com/summer2005.html for mind-blowing pictures and totally far-out, zany descriptions of how much fun it can be to “Raise a SteelMaster”.
These pictures tell their story far better than anything we could write here. We can only imagine how much fun they and their friends had building their 25’x20’ SteelMaster Building. As a matter of fact, kind of wish we had been there. After the load-bearing soil and foundation were laid, it only took them six hours and 12 or so friends to raise the SteelMaster Building for Art.
Chris is the composer behind the music for Bone Poets. Sue is a graphic artist and designs their album covers and tie-dyed tees. She also sings back-up vocals in the band. Between this amass of talent lies the real reason for their SteelMaster Building. The building serves as an art studio for Sue’s painting, sculpting and graphic design work. Geesh… is there anything this couple cannot do?
“The only problem we have is our building sprang a couple of leaks,” remarked Chris. “Although let me be clear these leaks are not at all the fault of SteelMaster. We realized we were a little over-zealous in a few places tightening the bolts, and made the holes too big. Hey, but it’s no biggee, SteelMaster gave us plenty of extra bolts. As soon as we have another sunny day – remember we live near Seattle where it ‘spits’ rain almost all the time – we plan to repair them.
Chris was quick to add, “We constructed our SteelMaster buildings in 2005. It is still a work in progress and we plan on adding a lot to the interior, like insulation as soon as we have the cash-flow. The good thing is our building is up and functional. We can do the rest when and as we want. Having the extra storage space has been great too.”
“I was very impressed with our sales guy – the SteelMaster Straw Boss. Our whole experience was excellent. You guys know your stuff. I feel bad I cannot remember his name, but he was cool. We would definitely recommend SteelMaster to other people.”
SteelMaster Buildings are designed to resist leaks, excessive heat and freezing temperatures, hurricane force winds, heavy snow loads, and even termites. The rain in Seattle is no match or threat to a SteelMaster exterior. The Galvalume Plus organic coating on the arches and end walls will keep the building rust-proof and maintenance-free.
SteelMaster is known as the world-wide leader for steel and metal prefabricated, arched structures. We are honored to add Chris, Sue and the Bone Poets to our list of over 50,000 customers who totally dig our buildings. Rock on… Bone Poets… Rock on!
