It's not Craig's back, but his crew! :-) I've had 4 to 5 guys working in my backyard most of the time, they're the real craftsmen.

I have some more pictures of it taking shape (ignoring the problems I documented in the "Artigiano floor" thread).

Mgraban,

I deeply sympathize to the bottom of my M535 with how Craig's back must be feeling. This is one really super piece of work you're getting installed. A showpiece indeed. Well done. I do a lot of flagstone work, so I'm wondering what stone are the large pieces of flag. Limestone? Local? Looks very nice indeed.

Well, again it's Craig's crew. Craig has been a pain in my backside, but for other reasons.

Thanks for your compliment. It's Oklahoma flagstone, I believe.
