My metal work 2

in #art7 years ago

Continuing on with this method of combing found interesting shapes of different colored metals and brazing them together more complicated and interesting shapes can be constructed.

When I started to work with thinner softer metals such as Brass, the Braising together using a welding torch became a lot tricky er. Edges would overheat and distort.

I chose to set the torch down and simply epoxy glue the shapes together

Another thing you may have noticed is that I am not working with fresh, shiny, unblemished materials. In fact I like the idea of re-purposing already made and used parts. The more beat up and discolored the material more character and edginess comes out.
