I'vs been following the building of this chateau since 2011, both onsite and via the media. It's fascinating to watch. I was watching a blacksmith around 2014 who was making nails. He only made about two a day. He said that once he spent more time than usual on one particular nail, only for it to be a useless failure. The infrastructure there is also amazing. They grow sheep for making woollen clothing and tapestries. They make terracotta tiles which are baked in a 'kiln' - more a pile of stones and fired with wood over several days. Other stuff they make, lime for their lime-mortar, ropes from vegetable fibre, shaped stones using wooden templates for they masonry and gargoyles. They use treadmills for raising heavy stuff up the walls, which can be seen on the tower on the right in the photo. They also built a water-mill about 100 metres away for grinding grain.
