Jimmidaboot Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Got some good work done on the thumper today. Barrel is 32oz or 19g, top is hand formed with a lip that captures the barrel. Flange is stainless with copper attached. It will be riveted to the top cone or cape once the tubing is inserted through the side. Still have to make the bottom and roll some beads into the sides of the barrel for rigidity. Moving right along! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmidaboot Posted February 14, 2013 Author Share Posted February 14, 2013 Top riveted and welded, some beads rolled into the barrel. Dome on top is just sitting there. Details on that design to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmidaboot Posted March 1, 2013 Author Share Posted March 1, 2013 So, aside from a drain in the bottom, the thumper is done, metal work wise. I will be polishing it before delivery. I've polished the top at this point. Enjoy the updated pics. I wish I could join all of you good folks in Denver, but alas, I am but a poor craftsman. Maybe next year?
