A Russian man has spent years on creating and selling these welding wonders. The little trinkets are ingeniously designed for any dining or drinking setting.
He takes boring old metal and crafts it into ornaments that aren’t half bad to look at (they’re actually pretty freakin’ awesome).
They range from tanks, to skier salt and pepper shakers, to shot glasses chilling around a table (ash tray). The designs are really quirky and the finished products are superbly made.
