    Default Watch Part Motorcycles

    I'd imagine those of you who like watches will feel a bit uneasy about this, but some lovely work;

    That is really cool. My brother would love one of them done up to look like his Harley.

    JtM, Those are incredible. Then I followed the Dan Tanenbaum link on the page even more of them including a slideshow of 98 of them.

    I like that some have leather watchbands folded up to make seats.



    That ColossalArt site has some interesting stuff like these currency sculptures. http://www.thisiscolossal.com/2012/0...isti-malakoff/



    And for those who belittle the standard Bic biro - see what can be achieved with one on an old envelope !!!!

    I wonder if one could do this with parts from fountain pens?

    Fabulous!
    I did a quick look at the page and on his Facebook page but didn't see any prices.
    I did not hunt long as I won't be buying one but I'm curious. If anyone stumbles on a price range I'd love to hear it.
