« Part 4: Making a Mitered Mortise and Tenon joint with Yeung Chan Part 5 of Older Woodworkers I admire series no next part

From the Masonic Temple, Staunton, VA. by photographer Katie Metraux. Thanks, Katie!

Note the carving; The ratio of the top of the carving to the bottom creates the flow as the eye is carried up the middle then back down again across the top of the piece. Awesome flow.
