Very nice Howard. The fun thing about the picture from Ted's collections is most of those are in my collection now. However the one that you built is in Kathi Mac's collections. Howard are you still cutting your own crenelations? If so why?

Pete...
Old Howard is still doing a little of both...i obtained (thru an old fashioned "horse trade") a supply of pre-cut fence stock...but i still cut my own scallops if the fence stock is not tall enough (like the walls of the subject house)...
My very best regards...

For me personally-- I love to create my own "putz parts" when I can. I applaud you Howard for doing so! Just like I enjoy making my own coconut. There's definitely an aura of sheer satisfaction in knowing that I too "cracked the code" and have been able to enjoy the workmanship of my own 2 hands. ;)
