“Thanks” – previously Still Untitled

image

I don’t do commissions!  Well never say never.  The Loudoun Academy of the Arts approached me about doing a “Thank You” gift for a dear friend of mine, I was honored and of course said yes.  All the stresses that I try to avoid with commission work came rushing back over the few months of creation but the result was fantastic.

Work in progress….tallest piece of sculpture I have done so far…well not finished but hopefully becomes the tallest one….

About 10 feet high, arcs are from the base of a small corn bin or silo with harrow/seed discs.

Not sure if it will be happy or pissed off.  Depends on my mood I guess when I weld him up.

Went with the pissed off version.  Actually was not my mood but she looked better pissed off.

Power Hacksaw – Early Sawmaster Power Hacksaw

Got my Sawmaster up and running!  Little time consuming on the cuts but less noise and mess than the abrasive chop saw.  Handles thicker steel much nicer as well.  The sound it makes is soothing as well.  Love the high tech auto off mechanism as well….wait for it at the end of the vid.
