My wife & I just had our 6th anniversary. The nominal material for
such an event is iron. I got her a garden scupture that I thought
folks here would get a kick out of:

It's not every day you can give your wife something that is signed
with a plasma torch. Every time she sees it she gets a great big
grin. We've named the aliens Gidney & Floyd after the moon men on
Rocky & Bullwinkle, and the gnome is Masklin, after a Terry Pratchet
character.

It's unprotected, and I'm thinking about giving it a good coat of car
wax before I put it out. I know there have been discussions about
coatings for brass, and I'll have to go back & search for other
options. The scuptor suggested Krylon, but I suspect that will peel
after enough UV exposure. Also, the lower jaws will pool water, so
I'm going to add a couple small drain holes.


Consider:
1) Penetrol
2) Future Acrylic Floor Treatment (was/is sold under Pledge, too)
