Bob,
Those are some nice things you've made there. I really like the one that is shaped like a Native American flute player.

Funny, but that's the same one that really caught my eye.
Really beautiful work, Bob. I have a friend who does this. We graduated from trade school together in 1977. He was in the welding department, I was in the machine shop. He went on to 4 yeas in the Navy and started a business when he got out. He's now one of the premier fabricators of railings and things like that here in teh New England area.

Bob,
beautiful work, I did a little of that in high school but just don't have a creative mind for the artistic design.

Bob,
The painting, from a rattle can? and did you use a separate primer or the paint that doesn't need one.?
The candle holders do you buy them or make them?

Most of the paint is from a spray gun with paint from my local tractor supply store and its oil base. The white light is oil base and yes i make the candle cups from 3/4" formed copper tube silver soldered to a formed steel disc. I still have lots of them if you need some...Bob
