I have some "art" myself---I have some cylinder heads, pistons, pitch rod end, set of mounted TR blades etc....therefore I have to say .... "Neat Art"--all of it would prolly end up as scrap metal...therefore, better to be in the hands of an "appreciator"....

I don't know...what I like about aircraft, is FLYING! This is furniture & decoration with airgraft carcasses  ::sick:: like having stuffed animals in the living room, instead of interacting with LIVE animals in nature!  ::loony::

Aircraft are nice things to see in flying conditions. When they are no longer airworthy, reuse what can be reused and melt the rest to create cans so I can drink beer in what used to be an airplane.

If someone want furniture out of airplane parts, it's just a question of personal taste. Personnaly, I could use a prop as garage decoration but I wouldn't sleep in the "mile high" bed or use a boeing wheel as a coffee table.

Because of this topic, I had to go look at other furniture.

Or a motorized LazyBoy?

Back into the workshop for me.
I have a blown vacuum pump to replace.
