I’ve Made Some Whimsical Winter Scenes From Old Snow Shovels

ADVERTISEMENT

I’ve been working with old rusty tools for a couple of years now and love giving these discarded items a new life.

I use a plasma torch and hand cut custom designs into old tools. Some items will have other parts welded on as well.

Most of my work involves saws, but I also work with shovels, rakes, masonry trowels – and well, pretty much anything else metal that I can find at a yard sale!

Not many people notice the squirrels right away, but this is one of my favorite designs!

If I could make something close to being half as good as that, I would - oh wait I canโ€™t make anything half as good as that.
