Octagonal framing, old redwood water tank


Discovered this abandoned redwood water tank while exploring on my bike earlier today. It's hidden from the road. Some pieces missing. Didn't have wide angle lens, so top photo is a collage of 3 pics, looks way larger than it is. Tank is about 12' diameter. Beautiful, simple roof framing; key is 8-sided newel post, so all that's required with each rafter is a simple, not mitered, angle cut.

I could sure use the wood! I hope they salvage it before nothing is any good.
