January 25, 20179 yr Thought I'd share a few pics of a sculpture I just finished for the special lady in my life as part of a Valentines gift. I can't take credit for the concept of the sculpture, I saw a pic similar on Pinterest probably a year ago and started saving parts since then - and put my own twist on it. Although the only forging I can claim on it is bending the arms into rings - and then tack welding the rest - I thought it was worth a share. Used 2 old bent hooks I had, two different size ball bearings and a railroad clip. Finish is is Rust Oleum hammered bronze paint. I wanted to go with blackened scale finish with bees wax - but the bronze will match better with her decorating style. There is still plenty of time to make your own - lol - Or to have one in the wings as a surprise gift for the day - you hammer on too late at night and get into the doghouse!
