Euromarble Visit - 2007

Sydney Clockmakers joined Chapter 72 in two recent field trips, one to the Euro Marble company and the other to visit the Royal coach at North Head. Both visits enjoyed by all. The pictures are of the marble visit. The Bulle Clock has had a new marble base made, matching the top in grade and colour so well as to be indistinguishable.
