This is geeky recycling people! Sage Werbock (aka the Great Nippulini) who is the resident expert welder, blacksmith, and man with “the world strongest nipples” (self proclaimed) built this pretty awesome AT-AT out of old scrap computer parts and sheet metal.
“The main body is composed of power supply boxes from old computers, the head from floppy drive housings, legs and feet from various scrap metal. The entire piece has been welded together using the MIG welding process. Two coats of cold galvanizing primer are applied followed by a coat of varied grays and finished with two coats of protective gloss. The whole sculpture was randomly “attacked” with the welding arc to simulate battle scars.”
This model is for sale on Etsy for $450.00, and there’s only one so if you want this, you’d better hurry.
