Yes.
The designs/drawings and engineering work are all completed.
The patterns needed for the castings are done.
The castings are being done at present.
Our excavator is having work done on it right now, so it will be ready to go in the spring to dig the pit.

One neat feature of this project is that one casting survived from the original table in Wiscasset. It is being used as a pattern for the seven copies of this part that we need.
