Re-purposed two junk mountain bikes for parts, used new thin-walled rectangular tube (because of its inherent flex as a natural "built-in" suspension system) for the frame and small expanded sheet steel for the deck.

Been playing with this for a few weeks.

1/4 inch square stock 6 inchs wide by 2 inch squares. Started out flat and 58 inchs long. Ran it through the slip roller, air hammer (bad idea) and over the anvil.


Only been 2 years and I finally got it mounted!

Only been 2 years and I finally got it mounted!

Been sitting on the work bench for 2 years now. Finally got a hair across my ... and did something about it.

Start with a harrow dish, weld on a 6x6 (I think) thick wall box tube and top with a piece of 1/2 inch plate. Set anvil on top and add clamps to hold in place. Add some hammer holders and all done.

So I have been busy for a few weeks. Finally got the tree planted for the city of Avondale AZ.

The leaves are metal hands traced from the people of Avondale. The tree is 1 inch "tree bark" solid rod. 207 hands powdercoated a golden color. The foundation is 5 foot round by 6 inchs thick with a center plug 36 by 36 by 48 deep. The tree weighs in around 600lbs.
