So, one of the few posts about the steel work I do. Another friend commissioned me to make two birdbath stands for her and her mother-in-law. I used some cold rolled square steel and backtwisted (a la Indian Larry on the Wild Child bike) to form the legs. Those were welded onto a small piece of round pipe, then heated and bent out. Then I heated the ends for the bath to sit and beat those down to round them out, leaving the opposite sharp to help hold it in place in the ground. She made the bath out of qwikcrete and a rhubarb leaf. They are just about done, but I want to add a bit more twisted accent pieces to it before it's ready for the powdercoater.
