Plasma Cut Deer Head

admin

So a few of my students here in Minnesota have been out in the woods searching for Bambi's Dad.  I figured I would play along even though I hunt for beef at the local butcher shop.  We cut this out welded it together and had it mounted to the wall in the metal shop.  It turned out really well, we used muriatic acid and vinegar to rust it.

Reply:Pretty cool. Is it just me or is it missing the eyes? The rest of the detail is great especially the ears and antlers. Last edited by forhire; 11-16-2012 at 01:44 AM.

Reply:Forhire3/16" thickness metal, it is actually something I got off of the plasmaspider website.  I had to do a little tweaking to get it to cut, there were no eyes on the pattern.  You have to use your imagination I guess.

Reply:couldn't you just cut out some eye  shapes to weld between two of the "ribs" (for lack of a better word)?There are no problems. There are only solutions. It's your duty to determine the right one.Hobart Handler 210Airco 225 Amp MSM Stinger
Reply:Same file I have, be careful the last piece near of the neck has the slots going the wrong way.  It is the one just to the left of the largest plaque piece.  Just flip the slots 180 in a cad program and it will work.
Reply:Maybe even notch the two ribs to take the eye pieces without welding even.There are no problems. There are only solutions. It's your duty to determine the right one.Hobart Handler 210Airco 225 Amp MSM Stinger
