Another Wedding Present


Recommended Posts

Here are some pics of a Unity Candelabra I got asked to build. I was glad Brian was willing to take the lead. We had a lot of fun with it. Did a few things I had never done before. Its all riveted, and looks very nice. You make one piece at a time, then assemble. This whole thing was done shooting from the hip. Thanks Brian, I bet it gets used in more than one wedding.

Nice job, not quite all rivetted, I bet that collar at the base was a little bit of a challenge.

Not too much, John, just a couple of extra steps than I would normally do. We did it like the books say where you wrap it around a mandrel then take it off and open it up then put it around the piece. We just used our Clifton Ralph pick up tongs made by Steve Parker to squeeze the collar on.
