Mostly there was a lot of scraping and grinding. One hundred years of paint couldn't be penetrated by chemical strippers, it was just too thick.
Once the guys got down to the wood, much of it could be salvaged - more than we originally thought. Only a few places required new pieces to be fabricated. Fortunately, much of it could be done on-site, as opposed to being sent to Scherer Brothers to be reproduced. So we're already ahead of schedule and under budget.
Woohoo!
