Two new Harley sculptures, and some cool shop shots

For the last couple of months I've been doing mostly commissioned work, along with the YOTC bikes. Last week I decided to weld a couple of sculptures for myself, for my store.

Click on any of the pics to get a bigger version and to find more photos.

Th first one is a Panhead, named "Nobody" after Terrance Hill's character in the old spaghetti western "My Name is Nobody." Cool movie to check out if you've never seen it.

You can buy the bike here: Bike #120 "Nobody"







The second one is an Ironhead chopper called "Hustle," available here: Bike #121







And while I was building "Hustle," my buddy Matt got some cool shots...

Five Finger Death Punch, YOTC #21

Petey's Tankcraft Hauler

This is a piece that was commissioned by a fuel tank manufacturer in Wisconsin. It's actually 4 separate pieces, and the "fuel tank" is stainless steel. It will be engraved with the company's name.

First off, here's Petey the French bulldog astride the fuel tank


The "tow vehicle," a Harley Softail



All together now







A little perspective



And finally some phone pics from during the build
