Left overs.....

[christcrusader13]

My family is doing an upcoming arts and crafts thing-a-ma-gic.... and I decided to use some left over metal to make some stuff.... hahaha we will see what turns out of this... [

This is the 1st time I've ever made anything .. well small... out of nuts, bolts, etc.... I'm using a mig welder.. which is probably overkill... but it is fast I actually cut one of the handle bars off of this big wheel when I was making it .. oops...

I'm working on a tractor this week, it should be fun...

I'm thinking about building a motorcycle at the same time I do the tractor... and my buddy mentioned some ideas on how I can make it a functional toy... so I may give those a shot!

more to come.....

Looks good. That can of work is like therapy, at least for me. I use them as b-day gifts. Put a $5 price tag on it and watch it go. [cl

the piano is made from left over sheet metal from my 46 f1 and the keyboard was made from a steering wheel wiring connector.

Fun stuff.

I made this for an auction and it brought in ~$40. Not bad for a few washers, screws, and nails.

It looks like you are using flux core. If it is an option to go with gas, I would highly recommend it. Welds are much nicer and it is better on your lungs.

PS. don't breathe in the fumes from zinc coated metal, such as washers.
