Once the drawing is complete, start thinking about all the materials and tools you will need to complete your work of art, if you don’t already have them.  You don’t have to spend lots of money purchasing all the tools required, if you are planning to make use of specialist equipment such as Euromac Bending Machines, you could hire one from a professional company such as https://www.cotswold-machinery-sales.co.uk/euromac-bending-machines/horizontal-bending-machines who could also instruct you on how to use the machine effectively for your specific needs. Now you have access to all the tools you require to complete your project and you have purchased the metal needed, you can make a start on your sculpture.

Practise on a few odd bits of metal first before you get going on the larger pieces to construct your bench. Take your time to measure each individual piece, once you’ve cut it, file the metal down so there are no sharp edges and secure them into place with a strong glue and hold them tightly with a clamp until set properly. Enjoy the process, take notes and photographs of your accomplishments along the way, recording details of each success and step back as you work to complete your metal bench. When the final piece of metal is in place and secured, place your lovingly crafted masterpiece in a special place in your garden where you can sit and enjoy the peace and solitude of the flowers and trees around you.
