A mentor of mine, John Brommel, is an incredible welder. This is his latest artistic project - a 6 foot, 800+ lbs, aluminum Hollow Moon. After about 4 months of solid work, he completed his masterpiece.

Handmade Death Star.

Chewy tax. John is a very talented artist and has taught me so much about welding. You can check out more projects by John at http://sculpturesbyjohnbrommel.com

I consider myself to be a mediocre Star Wars fan at best, but was there ever a Death Star that was attacked but not destroyed?

I'd say Death Star one (pre-yavin vi) had the exhaust port that was exploited but that was the first time it was attacked 1/2

So, no, never attacked before Luke blasted that ol' womp rat 2/2
