And the last one is a wheel table, with some nice underlighting.

Automotive Furniture Part 3
And here are the rest of the pieces I put together. First off is a turbo lamp created from a Semi-truck turbo that uses a cone type air filter as a lamp shade.

Barbecue Counter Doors
I made some wooden doors awhile back for my patio barbecue counter, but the wind grabbed them and beat them until they nearly fell off their hinges. I decided to build some heavy duty doors out of steel.
Here are the results. I kinda like the way they turned out.
They are all cut from 1/8" sheet metal with 1/8" x 1" Flat stock edges that are riveted.

Automotive Furniture
Here's a couple of pieces of furniture that I welded together from old automotive parts. The first one is a standing desk made from some jeep coil springs, shocks, and control arms.
The next piece is a coat rack. It includes a transmission flex plate, muffler, exhaust tubing, hub flange, pistons, and an exhaust tip.

Pop Can Stars
So on my lunch at work, I have collected a few empty pop cans and used the sheet aluminum from them to create some polyhedra stars.
The two smaller ones are stellated icosahedrons. They are about 10" in diameter. One is silver side out, and the other is painted side out. On the silver one, I left off two of the stellates (points) and planted some hens and chicks inside the hollow.
The big one is a stellated rhombicubeoctahedron with three different sizes of stellate. It is about 16" in diameter.
