Little Project In LA
Flew out for a week to help these guys out an learn a little from 14th and 15th generation Japanese stone masons. 300 tons in 10 days. It's done in the medieval Anoh style of Japanese castles.

Re: Little Project In LA
Got home in the wee hours this morning. The stone work was finished Sunday and the symposium will be over Fri night. You missed a magic time. The local artist group that supported us were incredible.
Check them out. http://www.artcitystudios.com/gallery.htm |

Re: Little Project In LA
Where did you guys come up with that "14th century" crane ????
 Looks like another in a successful series of outings for the stone foundation -- a great organization. JVC |
