It's very dramatic and captures the awesomeness of heavy industry. Well done!

Marty, this is a great piece. You can just feel the heat and hear the roar. We really like your fabric work too. I think I've said that before, but it's worth saying again.

I agree, strong work.

Description:

This is a dramatic moment in casting. The arc furnace has heated the steel to almost 3000 degrees, and the batch has passed the metallurgic tests. The crane man lowers the ladle into a big pit in front of the furnace, and the whole furnace is tipped to pour the white hot metal into the ladle. The Melter is directing the crane man from his booth, as the ladle man and assistant wait for their duties when the ladle is raised. I like how the supervisor planted himself with arms crossed, watching the whole scene with pride.
