Jef Posted June 23, 2006 Posted June 23, 2006 Hello Gents,Some time ago I got this upper part of a flagstaff. It came from Sachsen, was cast in bronze but was unfinished. I removed the wire-edge with a file and polished it. I tried to paint it but i'm not satisfied. Will put the outer parts of the EK in silver schlagmetall ...etc...My question: is there anyone who can show me a pic of a flagpost with this type of upper part ? Any comments much appeciated.Sorry for the bad pic, this thing was to thick for my scanner.Kind regards,Jef[attachmentid=44578]...
