miscellaneous commission work

Job: Commission

Date: May 2002

Overview: Apparently there are no limits to the forms that can be coaxed from your common, garden-variety railroad spike. This incarnation happens to be a duck, and was commissioned as a Mother's Day gift. The spike handle has been riveted to a trowel blade forged from 1/8 inch steel plate and peened for texture, this digger is ready to go.
