Custom made light progress thread

[CallmeGoose]

As posted in my dry dock thread im working on 3 projects, a coffee table, a light stand, and a clock all from reclaimed scrap engine parts... this thread is for the light stand and ill make the others once more work progresses on them...

So far its went from this drawing in paint when I first had the idea:


To this 3D drawing I made in google sketchup...



To this: I got this back from the welders today, and filled the holes, and blending the welds using Devcon magic metal epoxy putty. Next stage, sanding to show a seamless finish, then its onto painting...
