We received pieces of a broken light that was situated in front of our town hall.
Town hall in Harrismith built in 1907. It commemorate the soldiers of the Anglo Boer war |
Hennie started to renovate it!
Building a puzzle was at the order of the day!
Puzzle pieced together |
The section that he started on was the top part that has the most wonderful curls and flowers in the design.
Still changes to fit every piece. |
Almost there. . . . but there is some missing pieces |
The painful task of welding the cast iron pieces together is in progress Missing pieces has to be manufactured from old cast iron. |
The first section is now in one piece. |
Will keep you posted as this project progresses
We keep moving forward, opening new doors,
and doing new things, because we're curious
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.
