Final Welding Project

I finally made a metal flower! Had to use the plasma cutter, the MIG welder, and a number of terrifying grinding tools. I discovered that the cool center cog with moveable parts that I bought at the scrap yard probably shouldn't have been welded seeing as it offgassed some heinously toxic smoke (probably the grease in the bearing cartridge that allowed the cog to move, oops, didn't think that through). Needless to say the parts are not moveable anymore but it still looks cool. No one got hurt, and now I have some cool yard art to go with my metal goddesses. Yeeha!
