This fret would have taken me about a week to cut out (including time to buy more plasters,knife blades etc etc )
The cutter did it in about 15mins.The small holes are about 3 x 4mm each and there are 5 buildings to do in total which would each need 2 frets per wall to represent the timbered frames.
I have also finally found a suitable representation of cobblestones /setts for various streets, back lanes etc

A plaster casting from a Silicon Mould made in Ireland somewhere, so several dozen of these should see me right.
I dunno carpenter, plasterer, glazier, Av ne'er wuked s'ard.
Progress still a bit slow but now that the winter rains have arrived the garden will have to take a back seat. Will update soon.
