February 22, 201610 yr I've had the bits for this lying around for a while but decided to get on with it put it together. A singing duo - I call them Tom and Tina Tin Snips. The integral parts are the heads - knuckle joints from a shearer's comb. Good because they have teeth and open and close. The bodies are tin snips and the instruments are whatever. Here they are: I added a microphone and clear coat in the last picture.
February 22, 201610 yr Haha they are great Aus. Heads remind me a little of the guitarist from the band Gwar. Good use of the parts. I like the addition of the valve and breaker bar mic stand and how you ran the mic cable.

Ha Ha, yes, some years ago I made a four piece rock band using those shearer's hand pieces. The drummer (beating on engine piston drums) was modelled on Animal from the Muppets. The lead singer was Billy Boltcutter and his group The Pliers. Had quite a few offers for that group but couldn't part with it.
February 23, 201610 yr Another great piece Aus, reminds me of a friend of mine. I'll bet folk want to buy these. Frosty The Lucky.
