i am half way through soldering, and still have a ways before i'm even halfway done with the project as a whole. i've been thinking about it some more, and want to add some elements that will make it more clear that it is about reverence and the vietnamese custom of honoring dead ancestors. not sure if it will take the form of a large matt in front of the piece that you have to take your shoes off to enter or pillows in front or the sounds of a wood knocker faint in the background.
