Some men buy roses, some men build them!

admin

I've never made a rose before. I always buy my wife roses every year but I was inspired by that rose that the guy built with that steel fx finish.  I was too late to order the finish but at least I can build the Rose.  I went off of no template, and all the pieces will freehand plasma cut.  I didn't even traced out the pieces I just winged it.  I will post more pictures later but this is the result of a 1/2 hour time invested.  By the way what do you think I should charge wife, hourly or per piece?
Reply:I think what you gotta add is a cool looking stem with leaves like this one (1200x1600 image)http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-yBEUR0YmYq...B+%2526+B1.jpgMaybe add some thorns too depending on what kind of wife she is. Last edited by Rora; 02-13-2013 at 07:10 PM.

Reply:You could add a note with it: 'You are as delicate as a flower made out of steel at 25,000 degrees, like the One Ring in the fires of Mount Doom'Something romantic like that, she'll love it.Last edited by Rora; 02-13-2013 at 07:37 PM.
