 Nat:

This question is really beyond the Charter of this site.

It is very difficult to provide proper technical direction without a better understanding of the sculpture you are trying to produce and where it is to placed.

Here are just some of the question for a engineer who would be asked to provide you with guidance concerning the design of this sculpture.

I can only assume that you mean a 54" diameter tube with 1" thick walls surrounding a 8" diameter post.

How tall is the tube and post?

What type of ground is the tube and post resting?

What is between the inner wall of the tube and the post?
