AMERICAN FOUNDRY MAN
Paul Fingal learned his craftsmanship from his dad Charlie Fingal. Charter Foundry was founded in 1946. The area used to make aircraft parts for the military during WWII. After the War, the famous Hollywood Walk of Stars is made here. I was very fascinated by the way Paul has kept the place exactly the way it was in his father's day; the tools, the workspace, The changing room, etc. The only thing reminded me that I wasn't lost in the 40s was the radio station that he put on "Rock'n'Roll from the 80s".
