Senior Show sculpture #1

40 Lamp Poles borrowed from Alfred State College. The poles were originally flame cut at different lengths. Matt Rink and I chopped them down to a consistent 14.5 feet, and then welded the cut-offs between each pole to space the sculpture. The sculpture cost two meetings, 3 chop saw blades, gas for welding and some boiled linseed oil to make them shine. It was created in under 20 hours, and disassembled in one hour. Efficiency is paramount.
