Workbench kitty


2nd day 4th weekend





prepping to make the braces
front one was pretty tricky to make - I could not have made this as well as the Welder did


Some people would call it sculpture




I stripped the frame preparing it for the brace to be welded

done - the rear bracing  will happen  the next time
