Gate of Faith - Epilogue - Part Two

Okay, it wasnt QUITE finished....The stand has been added and courtesy of Can Fab Powder Coating, Fyshwick, received a coat of clear paint. This clear coating offers durability over time, makes it easier to keep clean and free of dust, and makes it shinier !
Super shiny in the sunlight....


The stand keeps the Gate much more stable....

The polishing is Georges unconventional style.

Gate of Faith - Star of David - Epilogue

And..its proud creator! Thankyou Mr Brancusi for continuing inspiration.

The "Gate of Faith" set outside for a photo opportunity. Stainless Steel is brilliant outdoors, and George's polishing, albeit unconventional, gives a vibrance to the surface.

In the workshop, the Frame is attached to the top of the two columns. Finally, complete!

The parts required; two columns, and the star in its frame; ready to be attached to the top of what we call, "Gate of Faith"

Star of David....

The frame and Star of David complete, here its placed in between the two columns. Next job is to attach the frame to the top side of the columns.
Two frames welded and polished. The Star of David also, welded and polished, and now sits on the rods that allow it to spin.


So we have the shape of the Star of David. The idea is to place it in a hexagon frame, comprising of two frames, and have the Star spin within the frames.
