Default Second pair of disc gates fitted

i just fitted the second set of gates for the client i made the disc gates for. These ones were kind of based upon the Sculptures and mobiles of Alexander Calder.

Another psychadelic flash back done by the great and talented Adrian Wood. I realy like the way you have made both gates. Both gates flow well and are not jarring to the eye even with the bright colors. Very well done. bravo

WOW! That sure gets one's attention. Nice looking but wouldn't pass local codes for child entrapment. No gap bigger ten 4" allowed on gates. It's the pits for artistic creation.

Another WONDERFUL addition to your "Multi-Colored DISK" series, Adrian. Definitely see the Calder influence. Thanks for the flashback..
