Sometimes you just have to do a quick non-artistic job to pay the bills.If you've done metal fabrication for many years you get more and more efficient and economical in your steps ,the order of welding,the cleanup and grinding etc.in short, you get fast and efficient to get the job done as soon as possible so you can return to the luxury of making sculpture,and be "off the clock". This is the simple but sturdy table with the forged legs from the previous post. Welded forged steel-30" x 68" This table will get a heavy ornate antique stone top... Those are cast bronze feet with a bit of verdigris patina.
Yep,the stone that is slated to go on top of it was estimated to be 400lbs.Coincidentally,my downstairs neighbor maintains and cleans private aquariums for a living...Talk about a niche market.
This thing looks like you could park an elephant [or even a pachyderm] on it!
Nice.
Now, get back there and sculpt.
I clean my tanks every week. That could get expensive.
