June 21st 2005: LABCO Welding Inc, near New Haven, CT:


Fabrication has begun! Today the steel branches of the tree were completed. Each branch was prescience bent to match a full scale paper template.
The templates were printed from CAD files that were based on drawing supplied by the artist.
The branches will eventually be attached to a base plate that will be welded to a corresponding plate attached to the foundation that was poured at the Clinton Avenue School in early June.
