October 13, 20169 yr Really nice ice work...love the copper and the seam work! Did you solder or just crimp? Certainly added character to the house.
October 13, 20169 yr VERY nice work. Exceptional. Love the copper and the iron corbels. Did/do you need to redo all the windows?

October 13, 20169 yr Now that's how a professional does it! Being able to that type of copper work isn't being taught in too many schools any longer.

October 16, 20169 yr nice job!!!! next time you might want to shine the copper up evenly so it ages and patinas evenly.

October 21, 20169 yr Author this is where this started.... you saw earlier how the flashing was done which proved to be a water let and you can only guess what happened to the interior... the fit and finish help w/ the water letting too... also note the soil up/over the siding and at the basement window sill...

December 2, 20187 yr That was surely a haphazardly done job. Great improvement Stick . Didn't even have support under the bay window. You can be proud of this.
