This was the flower right after it was taken after the plasma machine. The flower had intricate details that the plasma CNC was able to cut through; my biggest worries were the petals, but they turned out great. After taking it off of the machine, I took a piece of metal and a hammer and got rid of all of the slag.
For my post process, my main goal was to make the flower stand up on its own. I went to welding and had the bottom piece heated up and bent so that the flower is standing at a right angle on its own.
