Cement hardens fast, even in the rain & humidity of Codiponte, this first week of Spring.
A few views of what a cordolo looks like before the restored tree trunks are returned to their favored places, marked by the iron plates, bolting them to the cemented cage of the cordolo.
Wherever there is a plate, there will be a beam. The cement of the cordolo on the inside will be hidden by a band of stucco. The interior walls of stone below it will stay visible.
All that wood is the new exterior cornice to hide the cordolo from view.
By the end of the week after Easter, this first of three roofs of La Casa Grande will be finished. Then, the roof of L'Esseccatoio... or, drying shed... will be tackled before returning to complete the other two roofs of La Casa Grande. Don't ask me why this is the procedure. I just get to pay for it all. Gads.
