No. I wish I did. It was way before my iPad days. With the iPad..so much easier.

I even made mini ones...I got BAGS of shavings ( not shavings but not sure of a good discriptor...long lean strips of shiny silver colored metal...thin .... From a machine shop at the local tech college... I treated them the same way and made nests maybe 10 high by 16 inches wide. Those I set in crook of tree. They sparkled in the sun real good. There are lots of good things in those shops.

Here are a few rusted pieces that are favs.
The mermaid
The dragon...i added the rock to make the tail longer and sprayed it black...then sprayed the dragon too.." She " we call her sybill was quite rusted.

Don't squat with yer spurs on!

People try to turn back their "odometers." Not me. I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved
