Object Development

I created this metal 'E' out of aluminium using techniques and processes I learned in the Metal workshop I had with Pete Whitehouse. 
I used tin snips, and a small hand saw to cut out the 2 sides to the letter. then, using little pieces of aluminium tube I separated the sides to create a 3D shape, then using nut and bolts I attached them.


This was fairly easy to make, although I initially encountered a problem with sawing, as it was harder than I thought, but I overcame this issue, by working slower with the metal, instead of rushing to saw it. 
Although I think this sculpture turned out quite successfully, If I was to do it again I would think about surface pattern, instead of having plain aluminium, or maybe to work with other metals.
