brief description on how we made it. Step 1: Digital Modeling. The commonly used digital model applications are Zbrush, 3DMax,Rhino, etc. Step 2: Engineering and Preping stainless steel sheet. High quality stainless steel is the foundation to create beautiful works. We use the marine grade stainless steel sheet 316, which features superior corrosion resistance performance and high strength. It is crucial to make sure that the stainless steel sculptures will never get corrosion placed outdoors, even in warm and high humidity environment. Compared with stainless steel Grade 201 and 304, stainless steel 316 works much more better on
3) It is very heavy. We suggest to take the following factors into consideration when choosing the specific alloy for your sculpture project. Budget: Stainless steel casting costs most and aluminum cost less and bronze lies in the middle. Artistic Appearance: In most cases, the color of a piece of work is determined beforehand so the alloy has to match that color. Scale of the project: bronze can be used from miniature;
However, it is also well known that it is not easy to fabricate perfect mirror polished works. In this post, we’d like to introduce the technique and workflow Tany Foundry employs to create art fabrication works.
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.
