We recently fabricated a decorative Gate for a park in the Town of Sussex.
Following are some photos showing the process.

A Blueprint to guide the work.

A full sized pattern was created and modified. (The white lines.)

How to bend the various pieces is discussed.

Jigs are made, steel heated and bent.


The pieces are cut to length and ground smooth.

Each piece is checked with the full sized pattern.

Then the fit with the partially assembled tree is checked.

Finally the piece is welded into place and the next step planned.

A tree appears!
