Auto Part Art

Well I just got done making my second "peice" tonight. I really like how this one turned out, since painting it was a B*TCH! Sometimes its nice to fab things not directly associated with the rig, and be creative.

This one I made is a clock (obvious if you look at the pics). Made of 9" ring gear, metal mesh, bearing race, a shim?, a spider gear, and some clock peices from Hobby Lobby

Enjoy!

My first peice was this Paper Towel Holder (looks better with a normal roll, not an industrial roll ). I never painted it, and think I might soon to make it look cleaner and more appealing. It's made of D30 Shaft, U-joint caps, bearing races, D44 Ring gear, a Spider gear.

So, anyone else done anything like this? :thumbsup:

Dood, that's some heavy decorations........ Pretty creative though I gotta admit. I hope that clock doesn't fall off the wall onto someone's toes...

I imagine River will be posting up here very soon with his pencil box...... or sumpthin.......

On the clock, where did you get the "motor" for it? I made clock for the GF, and bought one of the little motors from hobby lobby, and it doesnt work worth a damn.

Nice work though, I guess college has given you some creativity.

I'm disappointed to see that the bearing caps aren't turned on their sides, so that they are functional. You know for the times when you really need some paper towels, FAST!!!!
