Cutting the various pieces takes place at the Northshore Structures' shop in Ontario.
From finding trees in the bush to forming the various pieces in a huge puzzle and then raising and securing it takes about five to six months.
Much of what Northshore does harkens back to tradition.
A pine bough is left at every structure to pay homage to the wood used for construction.
A compass, delineating north, south, east and west, is always engraved into one of the posts, a trademark for Northshore Structures.
