thanks, no its fabricated from reclaimed stainless steel (i.e. kitchen sinks etc) using a combination of contemporary welding techniques such as MIG and Oxy Acetylene, with some traditional smithy work thrown in.

Very impressive. I like it, he really seems to have come alive. Often find this kind of detail in a casting, but not with these techniques.

Hi Eamonn,

Truly a piece of artwork, and the techniques you have employed in my opinion, deserve even more credit. Congratulations! Nelson.

Wow very nice piece. Reclaimed kitchen sinks makes it even more impression, so many nice bends and shapes

Hi Eamonn, i'm with everyone else, WOW. Even more so that it's fabricated and not cast, and further that the fabrication is from old kitchen sinks! It's one of those pieces that are great on their own, and absolutely spectacular with the story behind it. Can't wait to see what you do next.
