I really like your pieces,

I really like your pieces, they're very clean and sharp. I'm assuming they're all machined, do the pieces screw together or are they welded?

nice of you to say

thanks,
yup, it's all machined, and screw and threaded together. the bronze shine up pretty and the steel is A1 or O1 which corrodes less.

What about the knees and elbows? Did you bend or weld them?
(they look welded to me, or a really sharp bend.)

took too long

yup, every joint and fitting is threaded and screw together. took way too much time to get everything going in the right direction. .01" and the arm would be 10 deg off!

gave the hiker away or i could get better pics...
