What's next?

  I've decided that the next logical piece for me to work on is the verge and foliot.  Partly because mechanically it should be next but also, to me, nothing represents a medieval clock more than this particular piece.

  I think that I may try to use some of my wrought iron on this part.  The rest of the clock is mild steel.  I would have loved to have used wrought iron for the entire project but wrought iron is expensive and hard to obtain in Florida.  I do have a little bit though and I thought it might be nice if at least one part of the clock was real wrought iron.

  The particular piece of wrought iron I will use actually came from a jail cell in Atlanta.  I guess the iron will still help with "doing time."  Sorry, I could not resist.  I will take a photo of the wrought iron before I start just to show that you can still how it was used in the prisoner cell.
