It’s not often we work overtime in our shop, but this afternoon’s power outage put us a little behind for the end of next week’s shipment to Vala’s Pumpkin Patch in Nebraska. When the power came back on after supper, I went out to the shop to do a little work. Peter, Becke and Grant joined me, and we decided to go for broke to finish off the sculpting of the mermaid. We welded up the hair armature, tied on the diamond lath and then added two layers of sculpting epoxy. And just like that we are now back on schedule.
