Reply:Yeah Franz the birds were a brain storm that I got that turned into a lot of work. I started out making one or two and ended up making about 14 of them. My painter was a drawback getting her to finish them.
Reply:Those birds crack me up everytime I see em- what did you use for the eye-balls?Old garden tools and darn good imagination."after a long day of doing nothing...its gooood to kick back" Pumbaa
Reply:The eye balls were made using stove bolts and washers I found it better to have the stove bolt protruding a little above the washer for painting purposes.
Reply:Sunflower, another of those projects to make the other half happy and to  justify buying welding equipment. Attached Images

Reply:I have had that problem also with my other half. The last couple of projects I have done for her though I cemented into the ground so kind of put a stop to that problem. One of them being the sunflower and the other an umbrella stand using an old satellite dish for the umbrella.
Reply:Well Franz, That's what you get.  Marriage is for the strong-backed & weak-minded.
Reply:Cutter, Nice quote...I'll have to remember it the next time the wife wants to tag along down to the scrapyard. She is always wanting the 1/2 ton "lawn ornaments" they have down there. She isn't happy unless it takes two men and a boy to drag it out of the pile.
