    Everything but the polished pebbles, I'm not that old ! The base is 10" sq tube, with a piece of 1/4 round at the top. the feet on it are bronze "bisquits"made from pressed round silicon bz I got the bronze patina on it with jax copper first, then washed with a very mild solution of gun blu. While I'm at it......The tree trunk began w/ 3 1/4" sq, then textured. Fab and cleanup was pretty intense. The leaves were all ph work except for the final curves...........bm

    Hey Bruce .... we are long lost cousins, both built a few air hammers, similar benders, make similar leafs (IFI post) and similar bark.

    Nice piece of sculpture.

    Without audio, how will we be able to tell if you have similar bark?
