Here's something I knocked together for a friends birthday present. She's really into photography.

It's just some bits of scrap I got out of the bin at work.











Has/does anyone else make anything like this? Throw up some pictures of the stuff you've welded scrap into.

That's fantastic!!

When I buy a house I think I'll make all the furniture myself out of VW parts.

I don't know Smiley, I don't think it will run very smoothly - if you can even get it to start. lol

Here's another one that I did over the last few days.

It's an electric guitar, I used MIG wire for the strings.





I also made a stand for it to sit in. Completely out of bolts.





And what metal guitar is complete without a checkerplate pick?





Enjoy!

It only took me a few hours!

The hardest part was getting the MIG wire to weld in place for the strings 馃榾

yup you have to much time on your hands LOL
great work !
i used to be a big fan of lost and back few years ago when i had to much time on my hands LMAO
i made this up of 20 x 2 mm flat bar then the smaller bits i cut the 20 mm in half 7 ply backing welded the threads to the back of the 20mm so you carn't see how it's holding on then out of 2mm flat plate i cut the bug out then filled it into shape
it used to be out side my old shed and it looked like you need a secret hand shake to get in LMAO
now it's inside my new shed
