G'day everyone,
I am currently in the planning stages of constructing a timber window hood on my Queenslander and I cannot use the standard kits you can buy from Finlaysons etc due to the nature of my facade so its a custom job. For the the life of me I cannot source the decorative arms you see on the ends of most hoods around the place. See attached photos as an example. I have been to every place I can think of here in Brisbane and no one has any idea. The best I've come up with so far is an offer to make them for me if I supply a template. These things are so common around here that I'm sure they must be an off the shelf item somewhere. Everyone stocks verandah brackets but these are not what I'm after.
Can anyone help?
