July 30, 201213 yr Had a gentleman that wanted a full size stalk of corn. This year it's hard to find one to copy in these parts. Anyway here it is. I still have to come up with some real fine copper for the corn silk on the ear but other than that and a little more clean up it is finished. Leaves are 14 Ga. Steel, Ear is 2" black pipe and 14 Ga. steel, Tassel is braided/twisted copper wire and the base is a disc blade.
July 30, 201213 yr Very attractive piece of work you are exhibiting there! Congrats from those of us that have no skills....but appreciations. Carry on
July 30, 201213 yr Another great job John! You are the man.... :D Be nice seeing you again this Aug. Stan
July 31, 201213 yr Author I figured out the corn silk (now it looks like an ear of corn on a bad hair day) and finished the clean up and shot it with 2 coats of clear coat. Customer was very happy when he picked it up this evening. Steve, I think I need to brace my floor joists:<)
July 24, 201312 yr It is fun having John visit here for my hammer-ins, that man could probably just about nail anything!!! :ph34r: He brings almost a whole blacksmith shop with him too! :rolleyes: He even lets people work with him during the event. :D Sept 13, 14, 15 - 2013 is coming on fast and can't wait to see what new stuff he has up his sleeves B) Stan
