I just listed the 21st Year of the Chopper sculpture. Out of the first 20, 14 have sold...raising $880(after various listing fees) for Home Fur-Ever and Lifebuilders Detroit. The other 6 are still available here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/BrownDogWelding?section_id=6440492

Bike #117 is the 21st YOTC piece. It's a Knucklehead Harley, I call it "Five Finger Death Punch" http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180456530378

These guys are pretty small, I think the widest one is less than 3/4" wide.

 

[jdustu]

I did this today, it's about 8" tall and 6" wide, and hangs on the wall. A commissioned gift.

Did this panhead yesterday, just listed it in my shop. Most of my stuff since October has been commissioned work or charity work, I just built this to do it.

Just did a check today to make sure I still knew how to throw down a bead...







Found this old mig coupon so a snapped a shot



I'm working on a '29 Seagrave fire engine, should be pretty cool when it's done:

those beads make me happy deep inside

 

[jdustu]

So here is the fire engine. I'm also making a "plate" to go with it, it's going to have an emblem off of a truck mounted to it and the firefighter's dates of service tig welded on. This is a retirement gift.

It's modeled after a 1929 Seagrave, kinda like this guy:
