Metal Sculpturefrom Frailloop

Frailloop - Metal Sculpture.

Recycling scrap metal with imagination and a MIG welder, Gavin Darby of Frailloop creates metal sculpture designed mainly for the garden and other outside locations. Garden gates, business signs, office focal points and of course the unique garden animals and flowers have all come out of the Nottinghamshire based Frailloop workshop.

Cycle Trophy

Gavin received an interesting email - could frailloop create a suitable trophy that would become the David Woodward Memorial Trophy? A meeting, a sketch, a few photos of racing cyclists the ideal was growing. David owned a Tilley Lamp - brass base and steel bars - which was given to Gavin to be used within the trophy, if possible. The bars became the cycle frame. The brass was cut and soldered to form the rider. The wheels were sourced from Bunnys Bikes - a couple of worn road-racing gears. The result exceeded the clients expectations. More news....

Remember Christmas is only 175 days away!
