A little gate project I recently completed. 1/2" round bar, 1/8" plate and 1"x 1/4" for the latch. The bird is 16 gauge stainless and silverware. Fun job!

 

               

Nice job, love da Bird............ B)

Beautiful gate, but I can't help being envious of the table too : )

Thanks Mac! Eddie it's a 5'x6' platen table, got it for $300 and I love it but it has a slight crown that is frustrating when fabricating. One of these days I'll get it blanchard ground.

Greetings Kustom,

 

I am jealous ...  I have made several but my customers always seem to have dogs and small pets...  I was concerned about entrapment in the scrolls..  Great flow and design..    Now that I live in the country and am retired I can make for my self any thing I want.  Just for fun.. 

 

Forge on and make beautiful things

Thanks Jim, I was very fortunate to have clients who wanted design over security. I like the gate pic you attached, although I would have made it a foot taller- somebody could climb right over it! :D

kustom - that bird is lovely!!! :)

That's a very nice gate, I'll bet the customer is doing a happy dance. The bird is most excellent.

 

Two years ago at the state fair there were a bunch of art pieces made from flatware, by kids from middle school to college. I've been watching at yard/garage sales.

 

Well done, in spades.
