Slither and Friends

Contrary to Slither’s opinion on scrap metal sculptures, I have nothing but praise to shower on the men and women who can scrounge up old, metal relics and scorch them into works of art. In perusing the web for a bit of inspiration, I was astounded at both the variety and complexity of the art form – everything from metallic cows to highly realistic models of the alien from Predator.  

Makes me wonder what sort of workshop you would need to get most of the work done.  A big garage?  A machine shop?  A big blow torch and understanding parents?  Anyone know?
