First --welcome to our insanity--  It is quite a bunch, sawdust is required though.

WOW---WOW--

Your work is

Way past both my patience and skills.

 

Just curious;; are you keeping a time sheet on that cathedral project.

Thanks for all of the comments. I've enjoyed every minute working on these, but have no idea how many. During the fall and winter, I get home from work and this is what I do. A couple hours here and there. As much of a challenge as they already are, I like to reduce the size down to a more manageable 24" or so. I've actually built about 20 of these. Sold a couple, but gave most away. You'll never get rich doing this. For anyone interested, I'll post a few pictures in the 'Works in Progress' forum showing the progress on the Milan Cathedral shortly.

 

Thanks again,

Ken

Hello everyone. I'm new here but have been scrolling for quite a while. Thought I'd show a picture of a few things I've done. These are all out of exotic woods and scaled down to 1/2, 2/3 or 3/4 size.

Ken,Do you think you ever get good at scrolling! :rofl: Just kidding,This is very exceptional work your doing.Please keep them coming

Thanks Marg. The middle one is the Amiens clock from Wildwood Designs, but I don't think the plans are available anymore. At least I can't find them.

This is the 3rd one that I built. The first 2 were full size (about 36") and made of oak and walnut. Sold one, auctioned the other one off to help a local family with some medical bills. The one in the picture is made of mahogany, walnut, jatoba and purple heart. 2/3 scale at about 24".

I'm rambling.......

Your work is astounding. I have always been intriguing by the projects on the pattern makers page. Not sure I will ever tackle one of those big projects of his but I do have the Eifle Tower in my scope. My hat is off to you. And Welcome to The Village. We are all proud to have you in our family.

Thanks Dick.

The Eifel tower that I built was from Wildwood Designs.

Pedro has a more detailed one on his website. I'll probably build that one someday too.
