Pretty neat looking, did you just melt it with a torch, kind of dribbleing it as you went or did you melt the brass in a crucible and pour it out?
I'm sure they would sell good.

Those are most excellent!

I think you really have something with the technique and I'd like to see some experiments done with patination, backlighting and maybe art glass infilling.

I don't know if brass or bronze can be used with melted or slumped glass like iron or steel can, probably not too large a thermal expansion coefficient. Still . . .

So many options...eh, Frosty. With the metalsmithing the limits are imagination.With blacksmithing it's my lack of ability! Guess we all need something to keep our heads from getting too big.

This was done with a rosebud, respirator and LOTS of ventilation.( Ruined a good 1" welding table in the process.)

I stared at your sculptures for quite a while, they are really very nice, when I was a tech at ATARI, I experimented with solder, but never came close to the kind of art you produced. Well done, keep the pics coming!

Same limits on most everything, knowledge, and skill, always plenty of room to add to your kit. We're all ignorant when it comes down to it. When you stop learning it's time to pack it in, you're already dead.

Sorry about the table though it probably isn't actually ruined. Is it? Maybe it's just been turned into some heavy duty art.
