Amazing ATB kiter metal work
Hey guys,
My brother is a welder and makes these really cool art pieces he calls scrap bots. I asked him if he would make me one of a dude kiting. This is what
he made today.
:D
I asked him if you would make more if any of you would like one made, he said he would def be down.
You can either send me a pm, or email him directly at blankmetalworkz@gmail.com
He can weld anything you would like.

Sure, I will text him today to find out the approximate cost/size/weight and let you know as soon as I find out.
Also, he lives in Livonia, Michigan.
So shipping will be from there.

Already heard back from him. Here is exactly what he said.
"Weight varies piece to piece, but the kite boarder weights next to nothing. Your kite boarder is about 11" tall, 9" wide, 9" deep. Price is $80 plus
shipping. Weighs less than a 25' tape measure."
