Custom Metal Art by Jerry Kirby
This 20 foot Oak Tree spans across this ranch gate and stands 9 foot tall. It is a fairly complex design with so much detail in the many branchs and leaves. The tree is cut from 3/16" plate and welded to the gate which I also made. The owner had a crew install the gate on location.
Torchcraft cuts most outdoor signs from 3/16-inch (7 gauge) new plate steel. Indoor signs may be cut from 1/8-inch steel. It's easy to see from the photo the difference in thickness of Torchcraft steel vs the "other guys". Most other artist cut from a flimsy 14 gauge steel such as the one pictured above that I picked up from a local art show. When you think about your metal sign, do you want one as thick as a paper clip or as thick as 4 dimes? Thats an 82% difference.
