Gateway Sculpture in South Beaverton, Oregon

Early Beginnings

All the sections have been cut and shaped using a hydraulic press.  The sections are getting their first round of polish. Their final finish will have two more passes to create the vibrant random polish of the stainless steel.

 

One pipe has it's sections assembled.

 

And... the bearing housings, though rough, are cut and waiting their machine work.

Here's the Skinny

 A new commission in coming on board in the studio.  Reven is quite excited about building this sculpture for the town of Beaverton, Oregon.  It is a Gateway sculpture to the entrance of South Beaverton.  The setting has it's own wetland ecosystem.  See the Gateway Sculpture in South Beaverton page for more details.
