More Creations

The following are pictures of Kimi and me making an entertainment center and our DVD racks. Kimi got her first opportunity to actually use her welding skills she learned a week prior. She also learned how to use a metal band-saw, hot wheel, and an assortment of grinders. This entertainment center is made of 16 gauge cold rolled steel tubing 1" square. We are ordering glass to go on top of each shelf which will match our coffee and side tables nicely (both are metal and glass).

The DVD rack is Kimi's creation, completely designed and built to her specifications. They are designed to be hung on the wall on either side of the TV. We have planned to build cabinet style doors for the front of each rack with glass in the center to keep the theme in our living room. There are 4 shelves and each shelf will hold 20+ DVDs.

The flower is just something I made for Kimi on Valentine's Day. It is made entirely of copper, which was heated and then quenched to create the reddish purple color.
