The Creation of a Turret Clock

A fresh start...

  So, laying in bed last night as I drifted off to sleep I came to the realization that I should start over on the corner post.  This is not an artistic "it's not good enough", this is a practical "it's not good enough".  I really do think that I have what it takes to make these corner posts now.  I just had to make the most recent one to find the final mistakes I was making.

  Hopefully tonight but more likely Thursday or Friday I will be starting over.  This time, instead of doing one, I will do all four.  This will help me to keep them all uniform.  Second mistake I will correct is with my hot set.  The current one does not give me the clean edge that I want so I have to do a lot of hammer work to correct it.  That hammerwork changes the size of the post.  If I do all four at once and I need to do cleanup hammerwork, the should all be about the same amount of size difference...
