It is always fun and challenging to translate a two dimensional sign design into a three dimensional sign. I spent the day peering through a welding helmet as I welded up the frame for the sign. There were many feet of structural steel and hundreds of feet of pencil rod to form to make the armature of the brick wall and tree. Next will come the sculpted animals which will be built separately and then welded into place. Then comes the sign face followed by the sculpted brick base. We are making quick progress this far. It’s going to be a memorable sign when we are finished!
