Milestone reached. The very enjoyable work of making mouldings is done, leaving two sets, a crown stack and a base stack. Imagine a clock in the middle.
Next is the casework, which will use a piece from each of these moulding stacks as the case top and bottom.
In the meantime, I have been discovering that glass cutting craftsmen have been either retiring in droves or are being kidnapped and dragged away from their businesses. More on that next time.

Hi Bob, great tease for the upcoming clock work!
And its the same feeling in my own country, no one cares about those ‘next door/corner small jobs/workshops? until they need it and found out they where ‘kidnapped by the modern life’.
Cheers!
Thanks Antonio.
So, you have that problem of real craftsmen disappearing in Portugal too?
More about that next time.
Beautiful, Bob. Just beautiful.
Thanks Matt.
Very nice, Bob! Looks great with the egg and dart.
Thanks Derek.
Yes, I think the egg and dart is a lot more interesting than the original dentil.
Damn!
That’s it.
Just, damn!
Thanks Mitchel. Glad you like the results.
P.S. Didn’t need any Bondo. 🙂
