Well I'm finishing up my last semester at school, and I get to use the welding shop whenever I want since I got my certification and finished all the courses.

I found 3 straight rebars and that bottom sprocket at a metal recycling center. I cut up the bars and then stick welded their bottoms together. I cut another one in half to make the side branches (or whatever they're called) and welded those the the 3 long ones.

Next I used an acetylene torch to heat up and bend all the pieces. I then cut out all the leaves, grinded the slag off, and TIG welded them to the ends of the rods. Then I Stick welded the entire structure to the base of the sprocket, after grinding the bottom so it would fit.

Good shit man.  I'm about to go to a local trade school- either for welding or electricity, I can't decide.  I feel like electrical would be more useful in my personal life, but welding could be more profitable in either art or real world jobs.

Yeah I actually just signed up for welding a year ago for the fuck of it.. just wanted to learn some manual trade. I turned out to really love it though.. especially TIG welding. The art thing just became a hobby that I taught myself :shrug:

I really hope I find a fabrication-type job in a shop soon.
