Motorcycle with recycled aluminum cans.
« on: June 05, 2013, 10:23:14 am »
Hi all again:
I present work done for my son, graduated in Fine Arts and a few very beautiful works in painting, now using the aluminum soda bottles to make this type of work.
I know I do not take the credit, but I'm proud of my son.
In advance thanks for your comments.

To bad you don't live in South Dakota Frank. Your son could probable sell quite a few bikes made from different beer and pop cans to the thousands of bikers coming to the SD Sturgis Bike Rally in August each year. He has done an excellent job. Brian

Hi Frank, you have a very talented son and you are right to be very proud of him.
Give him my congratulations on his graduation. Looks like he's got a great career ahead of him, if that's a sample of some of his work, absolutely superb.

Franco...you have a very talented son!
But ... does he use a scroll saw?

Think of all the things he could do if he participated in your hobby....

Encourage him and Love Him!

Wow, that's neat!   I made a Tick Remover from a piece of aluminum can, but never a motorcycle.
