postleg Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 This is a comissioned piece I just finished for a guy. He is giving it to his wife for her birthday. They are made from 1 in round shaft from an old farm machine with a copper wrap around the center. The piece was then heat colored and clear coated.

LDW Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I like that. 1 inch round shaft, they must be huge. How tall is it? I think I am going to do a much smaller one and add a tendril to hold a candle. Forge weld the bottom. then draw out to form a stand. Thanks for posting. I have been wanting to do the blob weld Brian does, this will be a good oppurtunity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
