Thank you very much.
Thank you so much.
Ooooh that’s a tough question. There are so many good hammers. I think an old chasing hammer from auto body work that I found in the bottom of my father’s hammer box (yup, that’s just what it sounds like, a big old wooden box full of hammers, glad it wasn’t a bag…har har) when I was cleaning up the old tools. I was a little aggressive with it last week and it needs a new handle now but that’s not anything I can’t fix right here on my own.

Hahaha, that’s what my wife said. I can respect the humor.

You can reach me on email for now.
I’m still establishing as an artist that sells so prices are lower to encourage getting my shop empty and my name out there.
Thank you for the interest.
Thank you. It takes about 30-40hrs to make one. That’s from raw reclaim material (wire and pipe, local stones and beach finds). Not including time spent sourcing materials or making shipping crates when necessary.
I charge $300/CAD per jelly plus shipping to you. Each is original. No reproductions or remakes.
It’s hard to explain really. I just sort of did. I’ve always made art in some way. One day I picked up a hammer and a piece of old pipe. Then I braised some wire to it and it became something. I’ve never been able to explain it well. It just sort of happens. I don’t have any training or extra knowledge other than what I have gained on my own.
I do have a pixelfed account. I’ll get it all set up eventually. Thanks for the support and tips.
