April 13, 201412 yr Thats an eye catcher for sure! Are the branches electrically welded? Thats a great finish for it too. -Crazy Ivan
April 14, 201412 yr The picture to me looks like you used bronze? It is a great looking sign bracket and it looks dangerous. Lots of pointing things. Good job.
April 14, 201412 yr Author Thanks. It's actually steel finished with Gilder's paste and clear acrylic. The main branch is 11/16" round stock and the smaller branches and leaves were made from 5/16" round stock. My wife did the finish work, I think she's getting really good at it too.
April 14, 201412 yr Good morning alltundraIt will take a very elegant sign to compliment that bracket. Nicely done.May we have a picture with the sign? -grant
April 14, 201412 yr Author Yes, as soon as I have the sign completed I will update this thread. We are still a little while out on finishing the sign.
September 14, 201411 yr Author Finally got around to taking a picture with our display sign. The sign is 1/8" laser cut plate with an acid etched finish & clear powder coat.
September 14, 201411 yr I missed this the 1st time thru. Excellent job. I'm passing your picts along to a friend who is interested in trees and branches and is just getting started welding. She'll probably flip when she sees it. I'll get her forging yet. Eventually kicking and screaming we'll drag her over to the "dark" side of metal working... LOL
September 18, 201411 yr That is a piece of functioning art if I do say so! That's kinda elegant and well detailed.
