[BASTY 76]

Kynetic sculpture so far outside the sqare it needs a passport :!: :lol: :roll: love your work. From a fellow metal sculptor.

 

[Buck Masterson]

It needs a propane tank welded on it someplace.

 

[Fair Lane]

Classy

 

[GodHatesCleveland]

I'd love to see a video of this in action, not to mention people's reaction to it.

By the way, what type of welding do you and BASTY 76 use on bike frames?

 

[gaskill]

mig welding, but you got to keep it low or you'll burn it right through. i worked on the rag and bone today, its funny how it can change shape over the course of one day. I rode it around on campus and got a lot of attention. also a lot of camera phone action.

 

[Joshua85]

that thing is just....wow...haha i love it i think it needs to shoot fire out of the back

 

[gravediggerjason]

my favorite part is the kixk stand ... does it just hang there when you swing it down?

very cool

 

[gaskill]

yeah i need to put something on that kick stand, maybe a doll's head. its funny i got rid of the tank and added another wheel. its becoming a monster. and ill try to get some fire to come out of this thing

 

[MeHeadHunter]

Did the Beverly Hillbillies give you a hand in creating this monster??? :lol:

 

[Joshua85]

everytime i look at this i marvel at how crazy it is maybe add a bunch of different size headlights to make it look extra menacing at night :lol:

[KOTA]

I haven't seen anything like that since the 70's.............but that was only in a dream!

 

[TheFlyingDingo]

OH OH!

[sensor]

I belive this question is irrelevent...look at the bike

 

[Rollin Double Sixes]

This bike is crazy! If I saw it on the street I think I would snap a picture of it too.

 

[gaskill]

the hand brake is just dangling because i didnt take it off. now it has a rubber stop attached to a lever that i push down on the wheel. its pretty old school but it gets the job done. right now the bike is in peices. im fixing to paint and torch it for a nice finish. i'll have some photos up in a week or two.

That is so rad! I like the use of the golf bag cart, I've always seen them at thrift stores and thought they could be re-purposed... Nice work!
