Getting the pieces together

I am in the middle of producing a large scale sculpture, Bration. It is a tribute to wind chimes. It will be displayed at: Purdue University's North Central campus

This is a picture of loading the truck to take some of the material to the powder coater (W. Kendall and Sons Inc. are very helpful if you ever need a powder coater in Westville, IN). I am having the rings sand blasted and then coated in a deep, evergreen color.

Thanks to my Dad's foreman, Gerald, for helping load the truck up. He could butter bread with that forklift! And thanks to my Dad, who helped with many aspects of pulling all the pieces together, including simply humoring me when I told what I was going to do about five months ago, now.
