Meet Quackers!  He is a member of the Piston People Series.  The photos didn't load the way I wanted them to so I will introduce them to you individually.  The Piston People's bodies are Model A pistons.  Everything else on them are pieces and parts that I have scrounged up from what my father left me.  My father collected and restored Model A and Model T cars and when he died I inherited all of the pieces and parts.  He taught me a very valuable lesson.....to see the possibilities in something rather than looking at it as an old rusty part.  This is the way he looked at the cars he would bring home.  They would look like disasters to the typical person but when he was done with them they were beautiful cars.  This is how I look at the Piston People.  I am looking at the shapes of each item and putting them together to create the individuals you see here.  Everything is wired in place with rebar wire and by the time I have finished one they are very heavy.  They average about 15 inches in height.

 There are Scissor Hands, Quackers and Cyclops!

 Quackers arms are made from old nuts and spark plugs.

 Scissor Hands has a decanter stopper for his head dress - I guess not everything is car part related!

 Here is a better view of his scissor hands - thus his name.

 Meet Cyclops!  He was the first in the series.
