This piece is 14”h x 14”w (16”w with the base). The labyrinth itself if made from 1/4” square steel and the frame is

1/2” square steel. The path of the labyrinth moves continuously from the opening at the bottom to the center of the

maze. The intricacy of this design requires the full weight of the labyrinth to be carried by many of the individual

components. After the joint welds were completed, with the piece lying horizontally, the labyrinth was fixed in its

vertical position and each load bearing element heated to a lo-red and re-bent to compensate for the load. The entire

labyrinth was then heated and quenched in oil.

After the initial tack welds were completed.
