Making use of my scrap pile.....

With the high price of scrap metal, I've given some thought as to what I can make and sell that makes use of my growing scrap pile. These scrap yard critters seem to be the perfect solution. They are approx. 2ft long. I will post better photos soon.

Smart thing to use your scrap metal to make salable products. I'm always amazed at how the creative process can bring beautiful and whimsical objects of art from what other see as junk. You're a very creative person Kimberli!

they are just ridiculously cute. i saw a similar use for scrap on our last vacation to the beach. they were flat wall sculptures of different types of fish. all the pieces were leftover cut off ends from a cnc machine. that guy was making money hand over fist and his stuff was nowhere near as much fun as yours.
