The base, as it came to me, was full of cement. |

Cleaning revealed a possible contributor to the
collapse of the previous installation. |

I used a piece of 1/8" bronze rod 1" wide to
reinforce the rim. Once the reinforcement had been
brazed into place, I was able to bridge the gaps in the
upper surface. Another strip with a bronze 1/2"-13
nut attached was brazed in alignment with the water feed
running up the leg. A 30" long 1/2" bronze rod threaded
one half its length was then threaded through the nut
and up the length of the leg. The other half of
the rod fit into the feed tube running through the
marble pedestal, securing the mount. |

Repairs complete we're ready to proceed with
installation.
