Another art piece...

admin

This is a piece I made a couple years ago for my sister-in-law.  The body segments were found in a scrap bin, and I made some primitive tooling to dimple the eyes.  The copper for the eyes came from a salvage find off the bottom of the New River (WV)  It was a riveted copper pressure vessel.  Fire extinguisher maybe?  I formed the legs and brazed on the eyes.  At the time I didn't have a tig setup, but the copper to steel joints for the eyes would be a great candidate for silicon bronze.
