Title: Hey!!, Brass-Holes!!!

Some people use a pen to do their art, I use power tools. This is a brass (#8 finnish) ladder that will go in a 10 year olds 3rd floor bedroom so he can get to the 4th floor loft. The house its going in is a 6 1/2 million dollar, 18,000 square foot house thats being built. The reason that the bottoms of the rungs are finnished and the tops are not is cause cherry wood will be screwed to the tops of them.

Im damn proud of what I do and how good I do it, hope you guys like it.

..........................jonny

PS: Its only 10 ft high and I got $4000 for it....LMAO ;D

That is a beautiful piece of art my brother.  You have a wonderful talent.  When I build my $M home -- you are hired.  Any metal work I need in the future is yours.

jonny, that is freakin gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!!!

any way you could send a biz card or brochure if you have one to me. lin and i are just starting june 1 as estate managers for some nice folks with a modest little 13,000 sq footer, but the addition is being designed as we speak.

i would love to show your work off. if you have anything like that e-mail or message me and i will give you my snail mail. ;D ;D ;D         tim

bro i have serious metal envy ;D

Post by echo on Apr 3rd, 2003, 3:47pm
Just curious jonny.  Did you do the design, or building to engineering spec?  Doing either has got to be difficult.  Just wanting to know in case I hear of someone needing something made.  I assume that if you have the spec, and the customer is willing to cover shipping, you'd build it.

OMG Jonny,

That is a SWEET piece of metal!!!  Man Jonny, I am duly impressed.  I remember when the cavalier blew it's manifold and we had to try to braze (sp) it, and dad was swearing at me the whole time cause he it was such a pain in the ass working with brass.  

When I win the lottery will you do all the work in my house? LOL

Way to go :)

Post by jonny on Apr 3rd, 2003, 7:49pm
Thanks again.

After a year of taking on any steel job im finally back to the non-ferrious metal jobs that pay lots and im able to show and do what I love.....That is turn something ugly into something people awe at.

After all these years even I say "Wow" at some of the things im able to do.

Thank you, PF 2 all

.........................................jonny

BTW: Total polishing time on JUST the two pieces of brass pipe was 16 hours........That will tell you just how much time goes into this.
