🏃‍♂️ Greener Miles Running Trophy 🏃

A one off handmade running trophy made entirely from reclaimed scrap metal.

The base is built up from a load of individual welds around an old drive shaft, giving it a proper rough industrial look. The arms and legs are made from tapping tools, with a little scrap metal making up the rest of the runner.

He’s caught mid run, with a rock lodged under his foot and looking like he’s just about to come a cropper! 😂
A fun, completely unique trophy for the Greener Miles running event, made by hand from bits that would otherwise have ended up as scrap.

🏆"THE ULTRA: junk miles trophy"🏆

Made from a mix of old and salvaged parts. The base is an old fly fishing line holder from 1945! (Photos attached) , with water pump gears making up the platform.

The legs are made from spark plugs, with thicker bars as thighs. the body built up from weld and various bits of scrap metal. The cape is made from one big piece of reclaimed metal, with a few more bits thrown in to bring the whole thing together.

Lots of welding, shaping and grinding gone into this one, with everything given a new life rather than ending up in the scrap bin.

📏 10½ inches tall

Completely handmade and totally one off. No two Rust & Glory pieces are ever exactly the same. 🔥

📍 Collection from Shildon
🚚 Delivery can be arranged depending on location

⛏️ THE PITMAN ⛏️

The shovel is sat right into the pile of welds to make it look like it's been left stuck in the ground, with the old miner's helmet and lamp sitting alongside it.

Built from scrap metal and welded together by hand

A little nod to the miners and the history of the North
East. ⚒️

👽 XENOMORPH 👽

This one has taken a lot of time, welding and patience to put together. Pretty much everything on it started life as something completely different.

The base is made entirely from individual welds, built up. I wanted to create a rough, almost alien looking texture for it rather than just using a flat piece of plate. There's even the inside of a Dremel motor used as an antenna on the base.

The tail is made from chain, while the legs are built entirely from welded bolts, then shaved back and shaped to get the form I wanted.

The upper body is made up from spark plugs, springs and chains, with the arms built from dumbbell bars, screws and wall fixings.

And the head... that started life as a hammer. It was covered in weld, then ground and shaped until I could get the Xenomorph's head shape. The teeth are made from individual nails, cut and shaped one by one.
It's definitely one of those pieces where the closer you look, the more bits you find. ⚙️🔥

Completely handmade from scrap and one of a kind.

🎸 Mechanical Strat vol II ⚙️

This Strat is a little bit different from the others. I decided to add a bit of yellow this time just to bring a bit of colour into it, and I think it works really well.

The outline is made from twisted Harris fencing, then it’s been infilled with a selection of scrap metal and bits from the workshop. All welded together by hand and mounted on a base so it rotates, giving you a different view from every angle.

Just scrap metal turned into something a bit different ♻️

This one means a bit more to me.
All my pieces are special in their own way, but this one was especially special to make. There was a lot of feeling put into it and it just felt right as it came together.

Made from drill bits, chains, wire, screws, saw servo, spark plugs, gears, springs, washers, scrap cut offs, a wheel hub and sockets.
And obviously... a lot of welding and a lot of time! 😂

Just a load of old bits of metal that would have probably ended up in the scrap bin, turned into something completely different.
