Hey by golly rolling copper gutters around a horizontal convex radius is pretty skookum. And doing the vertical radius over the arch is an elegant move, too. Curving the ogee is a fine art. Good to see some real craftsmanship.

Oh by the way, don't get old. It's not what it's cracked up to be.

Ever tangle with any alambique distillery curves in copper?
