Beverly Hills or Bust - a Sculpture Road Trip Day 2 - Picking up the cast stainless steel Swinging Jenny

Arrived at the foundry  http://www.thinksculpture.com/

 

Doing the final touch up work.  In the foreground is the original Swinging Jenny. You can see where it was cut into pieces to make the molds.

 I will say I do like the look of the stainless steel.

 

 Securing the Swinging Jenny to its base.  Two 3/4" stainless steel threaded rods go up into the man's feet.  I always like to have three or more attachment points because a tripod is stable. 

 

 The Metal Men and the Artist.

 

Loaded up, tied down, and ready to roll.

We celebrated being on the road with a good meal.  I didn't manage to eat half of the stake.  We decided to drive on through the night and get some miles under our belts.

 

Off into the night.
