Scrap metal is its own industry. I love collecting old bits of metal and selling them at the scrap metal yard. Each metal type has its own value. Its kind of like treasure hunting

It is amazing what scrap metal can be used for. There are so many different things that can be made with metal. If you heat it up you can shape it into pretty much anything. Metal is like an unbeatable material. Jacob Allen | www.normansscrapmetal.com.au/services

This is such a net sculpture made from scrap metal. A friend of mine likes to do this kind of art. He is always asking friends for scrap metal. I bet there is a place where he could go get scrap metal. I will help him do some research. Emily Smith | www.bigdaddyscrap.com
