Having a new set up is almost as exciting as having a birthday.
Yay! Happy Birthday to me!
I would like to thank GarageDelFuego for the use of his garage and for being an awesome welding teacher and wonderful friend. Baudot also deserves a big thank you for being so great to me!
Of course Tmronin deserves the biggest thank you of all! You never fail to make me look amazing! I love you!
And of course a huge THANK YOU to everyone who enjoyed and commented on my set. You're fabulous and you all make me feel so wonderful!
Let's see... to answer a few questions:
1. YES I do weld! GarageDelFuego has been teaching me over the past few months and I must say I've picked it up rather quickly and I hope to be an amazing welder and perhaps acquire my own welding gear someday. At the moment I am working on a coffee table for my living room. It's a steel frame with a copper patchwork/tile top. I'll post pictures of it's progress soon.
2. YES Hellah also did a welding set, but I believe the two look quite different. Hellah is one of my very best friends and so is her photographer and boyfriend Mike (Sureality). You'll also notice that Mike shot my Savage Repose set. WE'RE FRIENDS, I'M NOT FUCKING COPYING HER DOUCHE SAC! ahem... excuse me, I don't like being accused of copying and I especially don't like people who hide behind anonymous tags.
3. NO I did not get hurt at all while shooting this set. I managed to avoid any burns. Some of you may not realize that most of the sparks in this set came from a grinder, not a welding torch. The sparks from a grinder don't do much damage at all, in fact you could put your hand directly into the stream of sparks and only feel a slight prickling and maybe a sting or two.
4. Someone accused me of not actually doing any welding in this set. I have to admit, there is more grinding than welding going on. In metal working you often grind more than you actually weld.
But if you examine photos 31,34, and 35 you'll see that there is indeed welding happening. Once again, thanks for hiding behind anonymous tags, you're awesome.
hmmm, I can't think of anymore questions. Please ask if you have any and I'll do my best to answer them.
Oh, one more... Sorry ladies and gents, I cannot marry you. I do appreciate the offer.
Thanks again lovelies! Keep the comments coming, I LOVE THEM!!!
edit: Some of you have asked about a more natural, subdued, intimate set. It's on its way my loves! The set has been shot and is being touched up at the moment. I'm sure it won't be too terribly long from now.
A couple sneak peeks:

I hope you can make it
