I merged the two threads for you, Joe. Now I want to see your project in the shop and being worked on... :wink:

Thank you David. How do I delete a post I made? I didn't see any way to do that.
This project is growing, (like every other project I do :surprise: ) The size of the art piece is currently 12 feet high and 10 feet wide, and might be cut from three 4x10 foot sheets of stainless steel. I may decide to scale it down a bit, but the problem of the strips between the two sides becoming too thin arises. The smaller I make the piece, the thinner the strips become, and at some point it gets flimsy. right now that are 5/8" wide. Maybe I should fit it into an 8'x8' square, and turn it into my own 'Barn Quilt' They are popular around 'these parts!'
Just like my "FrankenBarn," a planned 600 sq. ft. workshop on a concrete pad that morphed into a 6,000 sq. ft. workshop with a 32'x48' basement, two 32'x60' floors above ground and a full attic space 12'x60, I tend to get carried away when I start into something.
"Bigger is better!"
Hey! I think I will ROUTE the design into a sheet of hardboard first, and see how that comes out. The grooves can be thin then, and the design will still hold together ...:wink:
As they say in Kentucky,
