The strike finally ended and construction has resumed at Eddystone. Here's the continuing progress.


Step 5.... The Gallery, Iron Bands, Bedchamber window, State Room window and stone tablets are added. The workers also finally realized work would be easier if they finally installed that ground level doorway.



Step 6.... The Open gallery, Kitchen and Hexagonal Bedchamber are completed.



Step 7.... The 15' high "Lanthorn", Lightning rod, chimney and railings are installed. Also you will notice the giant wooden ornamental candlesticks (on actual lighthouse but not on sculpture) are added.



Step 8.... Weathervane, Signal Gallery and cranes are completed. I used actual "gold leaf" paint on the Lightning rod/weathervane, 8-point stars and window dressings and metallic paint on the open gallery wheels and hoists for added impact.
