The whole structure measures approximately 3 feet in height and weighs nearly 40 lbs. To bring the whole structure to life in an eco-friendly manner components like hand welded metal and wood sculpture created from brake pads, engine push rods, engine sprocket, spring from a chair, and on an average 6 pounds of nails have been use in a tasteful way.
