A Gift that Give 3 Times.

Purchase any of the motorcycle sculptures in my Choppers for Charity and not only are getting a one of a kind handcrafted item that would make a special Christmas gift, but the money you spend will go to Home Fur-Ever and LifeBuilders Detroit! 3 gifts for the price of one, you can't beat that!

Have a great Christmas!

The Final Chop

52 weeks. 52 sculptures for charity. Over.

"Revelations" is the final Motorcycle Sculpture in the Year of the Chopper Project. So far half of the pieces have sold, and we've raised over two thousand dollars that has been split between Home Fur-Ever and LifeBuilders Detroit. That means that once all 52 bikes have sold we will have surpassed our goal of $4k! You can purchase one of the remaining pieces in the Choppers for Charity section of my online Etsy store. Feel free to spread the word!

So here is Revelations. Admire it carefully....or suffer the fate of my buddy Joe:
Epic way to finish! A skull, engraved flames, and a flippin' COFFIN GAS TANK!!! Too much win!

West coast dreaming...

This is how I imagine a West Coast cruiser, rolling down the PCH from Orange County to San Diego.

Bike #152, the 47th Year of the Chopper piece, is called "The Pacific" and it's available in the Brown Dog Welding Etsy store right now.

The First BDW Ducati, and a YOTC progress report.

This is an 1198 S "inspired piece." The real deal is an absolutely beautiful machine, and I did what I could to capture it's essence with scrap metal and nuts and bolts.

It's available for purchase on Etsy. The Choppers for Charity section of my store is home to 20 pieces right now...visit it and help us add to the almost $1900 we've raised so far!

See more of it on Flickr.
