Copper-Sill5635We’ve called the area between the arch bow and the leg columns a “window sill” and it is by far the most technically complex part of this entire steeple build.   Though it certainly finishes off the piece, details like this are the unheralded heroes of the project.  Fellow sheet metal workers will understand what we’re talking about.

We’ve got plenty more work to still do on this part of the project as we need to spin several more copper discs and have plenty more behind-the-scenes work before we’ll be able to advance this to completion, so we’d better hurry because the truck is coming soon to transport this structure to the cathedral site.  It will be sent on a flat bed.  Should be a head turner going down the freeway, that’s for sure!
