For all you silicon bronze fans out there.
First the bad part. I’ll be sweeping it out of the shop for months. The floor just glitters like gold here and there when the light is just right. I used up three filters for my respirator in the last four months, It makes me itch, it turns my hands green, it’s hideously expensive, it forges like… like…clay, Just try to maintain that oil rubbed look in a salt air environment.
On the other hand, it sure is pretty.
Now I’ll find out if I attached images properly.
BTW the new website looks great.

Very nice work by Kirk McNeill. Thanks for sharing. It is good to know someone has meaningful work these days. Perhaps more work in Hawaii will come to the mainland?

I stopped by as Kirk was laying on the patina.
It is a very impressive & labor intensive piece.
He sure is good. pf
