Here are pictures of some more items from Marcella’s restaurant. These are railings surrounding the outdoor patio. What isn’t pictured here( and soon will be) is a gate on the left hand side. The bread racks pictured in the last post will also be posted after install is complete.

Here are some pictures of bronze cast lobster claws we did for Red Lobster. We actually did several sets, these ones happen to be in Columbus. We designed them and cast them in wax to be then be poured in bronze(done by one of our sub-cons.)

dscf5365.jpg Aren’t they cool? dscf5368.jpg We like them!

“These aren’t current!” you might be thinking to yourself, and “Why are they here after almost 2+ years?” Well, they are here because, one, they’re not on our website, two, we think they’re cool looking enough to show you, even though they are older pieces.

Thanks for viewing & have a wonderful Thanksgiving,

The TORK Crew

Here are a few more things we’re currently working on, just to keep all of you up to date with the goings on here at TORK.

The first set of images are of a sign we are doing for Gethsemane Lutheran church near Worthington, Ohio (sorry for the broken images, but since I got Vista my PS is inoperable, so I can’t stitch images.)

These next two images are shots of some bread racks we’re doing for a local fine dining Italian restaurant called Marcella’s.

Well, here is the first post to our TORK blog. These images are from a project we did for a client in the Short North Arts District just north of downtown Columbus. It’s part of a mini park, which we are also doing a bench and adding some mesh, which will be suspended underneath the panels between the columns, Pictures of those items will follow as soon as we get those installed.
