Let's start with a song, here , Raphael Beil with another rendition of an ACDC (?) song...
There is reason to celebrate, as we have reached an important milestone: we finished all work in this horizontal position, after working relentlessly since mid April. So, let's celebrate, even if it is with an ACDC song...
It never reached the dizzy heights as in central Europe, which was experiencing a heatwave, here, we reached 20 celsius, almost too hot , if one has to work on a job like this one....
This is the base of the sculpture, with the stainless steel in sets, that will connect with the plinths. This is the proof that we even polished areas , one will never see again once installed...
This is me champfering and polishing the edges. And yes, I definitely prefer the warm summer days
And finally, our man Tony drops off the newly commissioned frame, prepares the ground and we try to get our head around how to best place the sculpture on the frame in the coming week.
A finishing wash and a visit from a horse fly....
