Title: Black Walnut & Metal bench I'm working on
Post by: broken1 on November 27, 2016, 08:44:11 PM

Amazed how you 2 were able to make smooth round tube so texturized and actually resemble wood/logs

How much time goes into a log-leg?

Thanks. It was actually pretty easy. Its just a whole bunch of weld beads & some steel bar stock cut into short slugs. The legs are .125 wall 2.5" tube & the braces are .080 wall .75" tube:
