Past Projects

A beautiful day, cooler than yesterday, overcast with a good stiff wind to discourage the bugs and disguise the sunburn. Work continues apace, with even more civilians wandering around the site than the day before. Guild members are pretty comfortable about answering questions and meeting people 'where they are.' It is now possible for us to feel like we're behind schedule, a position we're comfortable with. The windshaft is ready to go, thanks to David Crocco and his pals from the museum, who laborously fitted the alternating stipes of steel and maple that make the bearing.

The windshaft, which won't be installed today, as we're still chugging along on the bearing receivers.

All 'round us, the Festival is literally picking up steam, with demos, and a flea market, shingle making and all sorts of stuff swirling about.

All in all, a pretty good day, but much anticipation for tomorrow.
