     I have included this page to show you how this art is done.

This is a commissioned piece that will hang above a kitchen island.  I will install hooks

for hanging pots and pans on

Sailfish Potholder #1

This was my initial sketch and tentative layout on a concrete floor.

Sailfish Potholder #2

Here is a second step. I roughed out the shape of the sail and filled the vanes in and rough layout of the belly and tail.

Sailfish Potholder #3

Here, the mouth, tail, and belly are welded in and lateral line layed out with gill.

Sailfish Potholder #4

All interior parts are welded on and the fins are added. Finally attached the eye.

Sailfish Potholder #5

Can finally pick up the piece without it falling apart and finish weld and then grind a whole lot all over. Also add webbing between sail vanes.
