I wish I had enough brass to sell any old junk I slapped together. Unfortunately, I would never have the guts to charge a high enough price to actually sell it.

If my kids were smaller I would get some popsicle sticks and make some serious money.

$1500 and it doesn't even look comfortable!?

PT Barnum was right.

... maybe it's "ART" ????

Long ago when I was in Jr High School a friend of mine opined that ...

"Art is anything you can get away with ... "

I guess this would qualify and validate his opinion ...

LOML just gave me an earful for burning up about $5000 the last time I thinned out the scrap box!!!!

I guess P. T. Barnum was right.

In his defense, do you know how long it took to hand plane all those 2x4s down to size?

"beautiful piece of sculpture that can also function as a chair"

In my mind that is a real stretch of the imagination on all 3 counts!

"a beautiful piece of sculpture that can also function as a chair (although we prefer looking at it)"

Translation: You sit in it -- you break it!!!

I think that every time I see "welding art" or a "metal sculpture". Mr. Weaver would have kicked you out of class for the chicken $@#% welds and poor worksmanship "artists" put into these collections of junk.

When I saw that chair, the first thing that entered my mind was - "Look at all the spaces that spiders could hide! - In addition to being ugly"

The Campana Brothers also did some plastic chairs:
