Thanks Dallas. Appreciate the comment, as it is still a long work in progress, and it has been one long and frustrating road so far.

Now, if only I had been able to glue it down straight. :/

We were wondering where you have been. Now it is apparent you were lost in a diorama. Thank you for posting an image of your adequate work. I was about to refill the Saint Bernards' cask with brandy and lead a search party to Pasadena. -- Russ

That cannot be for real! In the last few weeks I tried to build up a reasonably correct gear wheel ... and Marc does such an amazing example almost overnight!!!
Any chance of a "how to do"?

Congrats, Peter

Well the gear is exceptional but the concrete is equally realistic.
