Malibu Elling 20x









When thinking of what material I would like to use for the 20x I decided to start to chip away at
the pile of metal hangers that i have acquired over the last couple of years. I started with the central rectangle cutting and joining the wires together. Next I started working on the handles of the brush. This part of the project was the hardest for me to figure out. It seemed like every time I tried to improve the "posture" of the handles they would just slouch back to their former position. So I moved on to the Bristles. My frith thought was to make bunches of wires to represent the bristles and have sharp ends but... that would have been too much cutting for my already tired hands. I then decided to make cylinders to represent the group of bristles instead of the individual bristles. By this time I had no strength left in my hands in order to improve the handles.
