Love walking thru old buildings

Seeing the detail and architecture. Such craftsmanship especially without the advanced resources we have today.

I love doing this too. And that was all done by hand which has become a lost art. With today's tech they would just stamp or pour it out of a mold or digitally cut it, the art form of the past is lost.

This is sad to me.

@WillaKissing it really is lost art. Quality and care for the work has suffered. Not as many take pride in what they do. Just a paycheck.

There are some cool things they’re doing with the printing stuff for facades. Really detailed cool looking. But the structure is still what matters.

@TexChik they build some amazing things that last forever.

@JustEd Anything they make is of the highest quality. The Amish farrier near here is busy. Everyone wants to get their horses in to him because of the quality of his work. The rodeo starts near here tomorrow, and he has been working nonstop for the last week getting everyone ready. Amish furniture is always worth the money. It lasts.
