We are in the process of making a 60" diameter bell - how exciting I
hear you cry - however it is to be cast in aluminium (aloominum for
foreign correspondents) as it is for display rather than hearing.

I can't find any fact or figures about aluminium bells to say whether
this is the largest - anyone out there know?

Thanks
