Nice film about the restoration of the Eusebius Church

ByKoen van Velzen 16-02-201511-02-2026

Although for myself after the first phase the work on the corbels for the Eusebius Tower is temporarily done, others are still working hard on the tower and church. Today I found an interesting movie on Youtube. It has since been removed, but fortunately it still can be found on Vimeo:

To the first message about this restoration project

Restoration Eusebius – Window on the Future from Future Eusebius on Vimeo.

Personally, I'm busy with other restoration work, namely the southern portal of St. Stephen's Church in Nijmegen. Together with two colleagues I'm working hard to replace all the restoration sculpture there that is in poor condition.

As a bonus, two other videos:

Because my saw sits outside, I cannot use it during frost, because then…

Apart from that, pretty much everything now has been shaped, so that I can start giving all of it their final shape, moving from top to bottom, finishing, piercing and…
