stainless steel 316 works much more better on build quality. Stainless steel sheet. The armature and the base of the sculptures is 16 MM thick,which is extremely strong for the structure. It can even stands a couple adults climbing on the sculpture. Cutting and bending the stainless steel sheeting according to design.We use high precision water jet cutter or plasma cutter to cut stainless steel sheet into the shape we wanted. Step 3: Building Armature of the sculpture. All joints are full welded to maximize strength. We use TIG and MIG for welding. The welding rods have to be exactly the same as the stainless steel sheet. Otherwise there will be imperfection on the finished works. Step 4: Fabrication This is the crucial steps in the entire fabrication process. Only experienced fabricators are assigned in this stage. The sculptures will be formed as its design. All the welding joints and seams have to fulled examined. We double check the angle of the sculpture to make sure it is correct. In theory, the measure should be correct as long as the armature is right. However, it is import to double check the measurement during fabrication process. This can guarantee the precision of the final work. We lift the sculpture to examine its overall look. It looks fine. Step 5: Polishing Polishing is a dirty job, involving many steps, which have to be performed in correct order and in right technique. These are material commonly used for polishing: polishing wheel, cotton wheel, non-woven wheel and polishing paste. The hard
sculptures that he loves so much. His ideas remain free flowing and his commitment to quality is as high as ever—with a resolve that offers a physical testament to the dedication, expertise, and amazing recovery of this remarkable artist.“There are always more ideas in my head than could ever be produced in a lifetime.” Ideas, or lack of such, have never been a challenge for Kevin Robb, time and resources are the only limiting factors. Sketchbooks and computer files are filled with the numerous concepts and ideas that need to escape from the confines of Kevin’s mind and technology today assists in this process. Utilizing the 3D software program SketchUp Kevin is able to formalize the concepts then flatten these concepts into 2d versions for easy viewing and sharing. This process also highlights the beauty, timelessness and strength of Kevin’s designs that are so strong in any size – table top, garden, and monumental . Kevin Robb Studios then has the capabilities to go from the design to finished metal sculpture.
