All of my little wire guys are available for sale, just so you know, and I'll be steadily getting them all listed on Etsy (http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=7391684) for those interested...

A good old fashioned one-hand hand stand.

My newest...the Fiddler.

Then here's one of my favorites so far...the desk ninja!

I put a lot of work in the sword lol...started with a nail. Pounded it out and folded the steel once. Pounded it again and shaped it. Put an edge to it...I could have shaved with it before I polished it. Got her filed down, sanded smooth, and put a good shine on it. I even went in and added a few nicks like he'd been in a sword fight haha.

I did this one on request lol...not too complex but no one's had any issues identifying it.

I want one for sure.. Just dont know what I like better

I think the reaper

makenzie71 · August 02, 2009, 06:57:36 PM

need to clarify...not all of the pieces are $15. The ones like the Ninja are going to go for $25...for the Ninja I did the math and at $25 I'll earn about $1.18/hr lol.

Hmm, maybe make one on a motorcycle and charge a little more for it? I don't really have that much money to spare right now, or I'd definitely be looking into this. Great work though, man, I love these kinda things.

I don't have a guy for it but I modeled this loosely around an old Duc 750SS

What did that cost you

( jk btw)

annguyen1981 · August 03, 2009, 07:10:28 PM

Jerk. lol j/k

JB848 · August 04, 2009, 04:30:10 AM

makenzie71 I'd have to say those are cool as hell. Where did you come with the idea? You need to put some of those on E-bay if you're not all ready.

The Ninja is definitely over the top Awesome! The Reaper pointing is pretty over the top too. On average how long does it take you to make one of them minus the sword of course?

And "she" Um OK

makenzie71 · August 04, 2009, 06:40:32 PM

Ta da...

I was asked to a do wheelchair hand stand. There was way too much work involved for so little detail...that part somewhat frustrates me. It's very top-heavy and pretty much NEEDS to be on a stand all the time but, as seen, it IS free-standing (for some reason I put a lot of importance in that lol).

Also whipped up the new Desk Ninja...

I'm irritated because I put 1/4 the work into the sword on this one and it looks identical to the other lol. Makign the little swords and scythes, though, has prompted me into make a few other things. My next project is going to be a "Damascus" steel letter opener...about a 6" blade. I'll be making it by forging stainless and mild steels together...since it won't be a "real blade", per say, I'm might add some bronze in there for contrast. I'm looking forward to it.

Dude! Those are soooooo cool. Johny 5 Need more input! More pictures please!

How about a hockey player. You have them in Texas right

makenzie71 · August 05, 2009, 03:47:16 PM

Yet...we got the Gorillas in Amarillo.

I've considered a hockey player, but right now I'm getting too many requests lol.
