The Creation of a Turret Clock

Much better...

  Did the cleanup hammerwork on the post.  At this point, the hammerwork is done.  Next, I will be putting the decorative work on the post.  That involves hacksaw and files.  After that, I will be punching holes in the top and bottom to attach it to the frame.  The final working step will be to add the finial to the top.  After all the shaping is done, I am planning on triple coating it with oil to rust protect it.

  As a note here, I have now used about 1000 pounds of coal over the past year and half.  I'm just keeping a running total for my own records.
