A 77-year-old grandfather has successfully completed the construction of an impressive 30-meter-tall tower, marking the culmination of years of dedicated work. The final phase of construction involved carefully positioning the second floor platform onto four pillars using two cranes, followed by installing the spire toward the summit and finally adding the third-floor bell tower.
The energetic septuagenarian, who founded a metalworking company in 1975, expressed his satisfaction with the completed project. "Now we can say it's a masterpiece, can't we?" he said, clearly savoring the moment of achievement. The tower represents the crowning achievement of his decades-long career in metalwork.
The construction process was incredibly complex, involving thousands of individual metal pieces that were precision-cut using laser technology. Despite the technical challenges, the determined craftsman remained focused on his goal throughout the lengthy project. "All of this consists of thousands of metal pieces, laser-cut. It was difficult, but there was no discouragement," he explained.
After establishing his metalworking business nearly five decades ago, the founder developed and expanded the company before eventually passing it on to his son. His latest project stands as a testament to both his technical expertise and unwavering determination. "I had to see it through to the end," he concluded, reflecting on the completion of his towering achievement.
