Beautiful work for sure. The first photos of the stainless weld almost gave me a boner.
The man is definitely an artist.

Here are a few projects Raymond is building for me now.
Swim platform in stainless. This man can run a pretty bead:sunglasses:
Wow that is some beautiful work. Looks like a robot welded that. Some serious talent there. I’ve worked with tube welders from all over the South East and Bobs work is awesome. Hope to meet you one day.
Polished out…
Same old reclamed cypress used on the platform as the soles and steering pod, not finished with clear coat and non-skid yet…
Leaning post mock up in cardboard…
Bending pipe…Raymond doesn’t do straight lines

Easy & docsorders, I just wanted to make sure that you knew that I did not do the welds in Larry’s pictures. They were Raymond’s all the way. I don’t think I could do a stainless weld that pretty to save my life. Now, with aluminum, I can definitely hold my own.
