Make Scrap Matter; Scrap for a Cause

I create custom metal art out of scrap metal. Donations are what drives this cause and keeps the vision alive. 

Your donations of metal scrap are used to build each project. Of course, there are times where specific metal doesn't make the cut - and in these cases, yes, I will scrap them for pennies to the dollar. (Full disclosure, of course). This helps cover material costs - spray paint, welding wire, welding gas, etc


There are many different types of materials accepted for donation. If you’re curious whether something of interest, please don’t hesitate to contact me for more information. You might be surprised! 


I am always up for the challenge of custom design requests - if you have something specific in mind - drop me a line! 


Cheers!

Scrap Metal Donation Sample List

Steel

Not sure if it's steel? Try the magnet test - if it sticks to it, it's steel! Got Rust? Not a problem - rust can sometimes add 'character' to the perfect project!

Steel Tubing/Sheet Metal Scraps

Square Tubing, Steel piping, conduit, angle iron..  

Any size, any shape, any condition - even leftover pieces

Furniture

Cabinets, Chairs, Plant Hooks, Tables, Desks, Crates, Bins/Buckets, Storage Racking, Gas/Electric grills - just to name a few!

Appliances

Think "old rusty tools' - Power tools, Wrenches, Screw Drivers, Drill Bits, Saw Blades, Hammers, Vices, Metal files... Even old nuts/bolts, washers, nails,  - just a sample of items to keep an eye out for!


Other Accepted Materials

Materials that help tremendously to support the cause and provide funding needed to keep the cause successful!

Aluminum

Remember the magnet test? Well, if a magnet doesn't stick to the item (and it's not plastic), it most likely means it is aluminum. You can get a good idea from how heavy an item is. (aluminum is much lighter than steel)

Aluminum siding, decorations made of aluminum, folding chairs, tire rims, car parts, shelving units etc. 

Copper/Brass/Cables & Cords

Extension cords, phone chargers, Computer Cables, Speaker wire, electrical materials, pipes, filters (these are generally a mixture of copper and aluminum)


Spray Paint/Auto Body Paint

Any color/finish. New or used - but must still be in acceptable, usable condition.

unable to accept televisions, propane tanks, coax cable due to recycling restrictions
