All in, all done ...Sam is working on, (for him), a new thing in the metal shop ... his first electrified chandeliers. There are two the same, constructed from forged, threaded, welded and wrapped, steel and copper. Those two are finished, and there is a a third that is just getting underway that will have a single shade. Pretty cool ... Click the photos to enlarge ...
First shot at it .... before welding, it was edited by Sam and the client ..
to look like this ... better for sure ...
Then the intersections were wrapped with 8 guage 1/2 round copper
and painted,wired and hung ... voila'
After a half hour of pass the pencil (and the eraser) among three of us yesterday, .... Sam, the client, and me, this is where we ended up ... construction on this one is underway ...
ON site pictures soon ... We have heard they look great in the space ....
