Sorry I can't explain in French.

At the top of the workbench board is a section entitled "How Too".(Its a child board)

Hammers may think its worth moving your thread to that section in due course, where it can be viewed by anyone embarking on a similar project as reference. Its all good    stuff :)

Duhamel,

Tell me more about the illustration if you can.
It looks like a scene from the Texas War of Independence with the Texians raising a flag with the Mexican flag torn down?

I notice that the outbuilding in that picture is thatched. I know many Mexican buildings were similar.

Does anyone know what they were using? I guessing reeds, but it would be nice to know.

The flag being raised is one from California not Texas. So I would believe that this picture would be from California after the Mexican/American war.

The photo illustrates the grip(taking) of a strong Mexican in California 1845 after the expedition(shipping) of the colonnel lieutenant John C Fremont and Kit Carson.

America before 1850 was a small nation  lol and even more before 1800   lol lol lol
