ARTS and Crafts Gate

Here's the first project in my new shop/home :-)
It's loosley based on a Arts and Crafts design. The project was partly an exercise to get me back up to speed with tig welding and to keep the dogter out of the street. It's been many years since I've used tig so I decided to give myself a test. The welds got better as the project evolved. I'll write it off to experiance. It is constructed of .065 mild steel tube. Frame is 1", inner tuber 3/4" and the small bronze colored are 1/2". Black tubes are patiniaed with Birchwood Casey Presto Black. The Bronze color is Bronze type B metal coating from Sculpt Nouveau. I then coated it with Permalac. -gary
