Reply:Another awesome job. You gotta find a welding machine company to sponsor you with freebies. Or, your recycled supplier. Any idea on about how much it weighs ? No big deal just wondering.

Reply:thanks to you all for the good comments..yes i will update the final picture after the launching on Sat...all i can share for now are some pre launching photos like billboards, etc. LOL..liitle bit nervous and excited at the same time.. you know, its my first major work and really  i dont know how people will see my works once the veil is lifted and the artwork will open for public viewing..really hope they will be kind as you guys.............anyway for  those who are wondering how much this  thing weigh well am not that sure but i transported it into two pieces--the upper body weighed around 110kgs....the lower part is heavier maybe about 150kgs..so more or less the total weight is  260-270kgs...that is approximately almost 600lbs  if my calculation is correctthanks again guysMario Attached Images
