I am finishing up a second reproduction of the Mastermyr chest. As I type, I can smell the oil on the hinges that are cooking in the oven. I've found that if I use the oven and cook the oil on them, it gives a really nice finish. Tomorrow morning, I just need to put the hinges on and one more coat of oil and the chest goes off to Gulf Wars as a gift.
In the mean time a selection of photos from NY... Most of the photos are presented smaller than actual. Click on them to enlarge.
Medieval candelabra from the Cloisters:
This is a door in the cloisters. With all of these images, there tends to be a blurriness due to not being allowed to use a flash.
Another canlelabra
Yet another door.
And now, some ceiling pics for Jim... This is the timber framed ceiling in one of the exhibit rooms in the Cloisters.
More pictures to follow at a later date...
A chronicle of my attempts to create an early clock using only traditional techniques.

Neat photos. The "yet another door" is particularly good. BTW- I am almost ready to post my door and window ironwork collection, provided I still have upload space this month...
