thanks man. I just go where the money is at.

I hire folks as needed, or the contractors will send some of their people to help with the heavy lifting.

And since I like to post pictures, I'll show you some examples.
.
.
this first one I already showed, and it's a perfect example of heavy lifting. 400 pounds 14 feet in the air.

These guys were provided to me by the contractor. This was the year 2000.
.
.

.
.
next four are from 2002 - 2004. Contractors guys. the individual pieces were produced in my studio.

second picture, the skinniest of the bunch gets to climb down behind and tie some pieces together.
.
.

.
.

.
.
the motley crew seen below, provided by the contractor. Again the pieces were produced in my studio, all handcarved plaster.

this was the year 2005. I produced two of these, one for each side of the balcony. 14 feet high by 14 feet wide.
.

in 2011 I beat out These lead panels for Trinity University here in San Antonio. Lead is my favorite precious metal.

my good friend Harry assisted me on this one. Harry has worked for me off and on for 50+ years.

.
.
45 different patterns, a couple examples below. beaten into .060" lead sheet.

you jogged my memory -

on a site called "Where in San Antonio", six or eight years ago I snapped this picture as the location question.

as I said then "you have to have some big ***** to paint your house Pepto-Bismol pink"

Here's a good tank beatin for ya. the violence occurred in December 2006

First picture below, I have welded quarter inch round stock
to each side of the tank to lock in the perimeter shape.

Then I drew a line where the deepest part will be when finished.

In the red outline is the tool I fabricated for the beating.
About six inches long by one and a half by two inches.
Shaped at the end as you see on the left.

The orange clamps are holding the tank fixture
to the table to eliminate moving all over the place.

Started beating along the green line, little by little,
working outward as the depression gets deeper.
.
.

.
.
Next, below, beaten all the way in.

Also you see the rib I welded down the center of the tank,
with the nut welded for the shortened console attachment.
.
.

.
.
Shown below, the fuel injected machines fuel pump
is only one and a quarter inch away from the tank side.

So before I started beating, the original tank profile
is cut into a wooden template for gauging depth of the new cavity.
The gauge mounts to the tank holding fixture the same on both sides.
