working on the egg

So this weekend we worked on the egg

First we made a series of rings about the shape and size for different parts of the egg




We then welded the ends together


then we made cross pieces and cut a center pole the length of the egg (9 - 1/2 feet tall)



and this is what the egg would look like if you stepped on it.... more next week
