Pattress plates for the Miles Bruton House in Charleston, S.C.

- This video is of several things happening here at Windy Hill Foundry from new light installation to my standard foundry work.
The pattess plates are for the Miles Bruton home in Charleston, South Carolina, and it was completed in 1769. This may be the oldest home we have had the honor of contributing to as for colonial/federal restoration. Keep in mind the finish is beneath the skin of clay and sand and doesn't do the appearance justice until knocked off with a wire brush which you will see next week as we turn to molding the capstan for the Tally Ho.

The older buildings in Charleston used these plates to repair the buildings following an earthquake there. For when it was cheaper to clamp the walls in place than to tear down the buildings, when deemed safe. The locals call them earthquake repair bolts.
Nice knockers!
Wow Clarke. That plasma cutter goes through that cast iron like a hot knife thru butter. What an upgrade. Another great video and thanks for sharing!
So glad to see some molten iron on this frozen Sunday morning in Alabama 😊
We're heading to Charleston in a couple of days and plan to see the house. In looking up the address the spelling is Miles Brewton House, FYI.
What you need Clarke is a steel table you can jack up and down a bit. Save your back a little, while still being able to drop down for pouring.
BTW, always amazed at the complete lack of inclusions in the iron.
Charleston, SC is earthquake prone. The last big one hit in 1886 and it gets tremors now and then almost yearly. In Charleston they would call these earthquake bolt regardless of why they were actually installed.
Nice lighting Clarke sure looks great. Thanks for the castings.
Great video
Lights are a great improvement as well as the plasma cutter. Keep up the awesome work and videos.
What an amazing sky
Nicely done teaser, there in your description, for us in the Tally House Bleachers! 😂😂😂
Thank you for another great video. Stay safe out there. Cheers
Nice. That plasma cutter really does look like fun
Just got my coffee..Tally Ho!
That house reminds me of mine except Brick and nicer. LOL
What an amazing craft you have ! A lot of hard work. Talented for sure!
Another interesting video! Can’t wait to see your new lights in operation! I may also look into a Plasma cutter one of these days!
I really like the camera shots down the risers. What is the average life of a crucible ? Thanks for the videos.
Hi Clark
Thanks for the video
Do you get any localized hard spots in the castings where you cut off with the plasma torch?
❤ great job! Make sure you include the name Tally Ho on your version of capstan casting. It is art after all. The bronze foundry did so on some pieces below decks without asking Leo and he liked it.
Tally Ho time!!!!😊
You're far, far ahead with the lights that you were.
Hello, anybody here?
Nope
You need to start wearing a good back support brace support. If not you will pay a price for all your hard work. I'm paying that price now. It's not worth it. Hire some labor.
