Project Description
"Miller Man"
Maquette of large sculpture for ITW
Welded Steel with a marble base
24" x 7" x 7"
By David Madero
· I first used a Spectrum 875 plasma cutter to cut out the initial design from a steel tube.
· I then used a Millermatic 252 to spot weld steel rods on the tube as a base for the texture and the welding man figure.
· I continued by welding the gaps and unions between the steel rods leaving a highly ‘texturized’ surface.
· I finished the process using a Diversion 180 tig welder to form puddles giving the hills and valleys appearance.
