Holding down the fort

See those columns on my front stoop?
Ta-da! We found new old columns in the East Village, downtown Des Moines!

The rings around the columns needed a little work - here I had already chisled out some of the damaged area..

..and filled it in with a new piece.

The new piece fit pretty well, but still needed a little fine sanding to match the surrounding area.
Pretty good fit, wouldn't you say?
Fancy pants! Good find, Dad - and thanks again for all the help!
