Welded Christmas present

[churchjw]

Finished up a present for my brother and his family. Its a sun flower for each of the family. The tallest is right at 6 feet tall. The flowers and leaves are 0.125" thick aluminum. I learned a ton welding on aluminum on this project. There is over 20 feet of weld in these. I would have never guessed when I started how much weld there would be.

That's cool! They turned out nice.

I wonder how it would look with green and yellow anodizing?

I was thinking about that but my welding is not good enough to stand up to anodizing. The colors would be all messed up over the welds.

Those look really good. You can always use some spray paint to add some color.

I'm sure they will be a hit for Christmas.
