The collection is being set up for the Early American Wrought Iron
Conference  and will be on display in the Delaware Agriculture Museum 
in Dover Delaware through November.

I've added estimated completion dates to the items.  Thanks to everyone
that responded.  To anyone that signed up and hasn't responded, PLEASE
let me know if/when you are plan to complete the item.  If you decide
not to complete an item you've signed up for, simply let me know and
I'll take you off the list no questions asked. 

Thanks,

Bill
