The attached images are of statuary I have made.
Ideas are from old Lincoln Stabilizers.

A birthday gift to a friend (much older than I am). The "55" is stainless steel. Fits into hole drilled into the hand. When birthday wears off some other type of pennant or object could replace the "55".

Dave, I loved the cowboy. What did you use to make the hat, head, neck, and bandana out of?

gnewby,
On the Redneck, there is no head....red neck..ha ha.. just HR steel, round stock.
Hat brim and bandana are of brass shim stock. I used a copper pipe cap for the sides/top of hat. The lariat is twisted copper cable.

He's very unique looking. I have made several yard guard birds using shovels, rakes, and rebar etc. I have seen a few of the yard guard birds made from railroad spikes.

Your reply hit me right in the funny bone, I am ROFLGO (rolling on floor laffing guts out!).
I wish I had your ability for innovation! Good show!
