Here are a few pics of the stainless steel glass rail system that I did at the end of 2007. Had to wait until they were ready to open to get decent pics.
The job was so big that I have 53 pics of it, but I think you can get a feel for it with just a few pic.....LOL

Jonny,
Wow! How long did that take? That is a lot of work and I didn't see all of it! How would you bid something like that? Are the raw materials as price volatile as everything else? Do you have a huge back log of materials? (so many questions...lol)
It's stunning!

Very Nice. That is exactly the type of rails and glass we want at our lake home, plus the spiral staircase. Once I get the arch. drawings I see a trip to the Boston area to pick up our jonny made loft access system to get them installed during construction.
Very cool!!!!!

It took three of us over three months to complete.
Seeing that im a small shop I did this job by labor only, the company I did it for supplied all the material.
The first nine weeks of this year was seven days a week on a job for the same company, that theater opens soon so I will have pics of that job soon. .....almost a mile of mirror finish brass...LOL

The joints are welded and finished on the jobsite.
Its a lesser grade of stainless than surgical because it will not be getting wet, so there is low risk of rusting.
I work from blue prints, but not all measurments on them are right....so that causes headaches all around....LOL

Lovely job, you should be proud!
(The carpeting is atrocious - and I know you didn't pick it out).
I'm just glad I don't have to clean it all.

Maybe that's one of the differences between women and guys--I didn't even SEE the carpet.

Cleaners will love that carpet though, imagine if they had beige carpet ? Would be impossible to keep clean.

Very Nice Jonny! Impressive...
The carpeting is kind of cool too...kinda phsycadelic (sp?). Glad you got the job.
What is the name of the business you do?...what is it called...metal welding??? Just wondering. Whatever is called though, you know what you're doing.

Real nice. Makes me want to say, "Let's take the stairs, honey. Take your's and grab my suitcase too, I'll meet you at the top."
No really, beautiful. A nice slow descend, hand in hand, arm in arm. Enjoyable, for if there ever is an unhurried pace for business life, also.
Yeah, the carpet is colorful. Looks like a Dali psychedelic drunk slinky orgy.
