Hi Gimperfi,
Wow, I forgot about that piece.With the eagle made from spoons, I welded things together with a MIG welder. The armature is mild steel. If I possessed a TIG welder I would have made the armature from stainless and tigged everything. Most of the welds are covered by the next layer of spoons. That helped disguise the messy welds, but you have to start from the tail and work your way forward.The flux core system seems to be really messy compared to MIG though.Good luck with your Chad sculpture.Welcome aboard,Gimperfi...
Peace,eh?
