Miniature motorcycles made from the watch parts

In this world a lot of creative people are always able to make something that looks useless into something that has a high artistic value. For example, some time ago we talked about an Italian artist named Gianluca Ferrerini who has made the miniature vehicles of the sewing machine parts.

Well, this time we talk about the miniature motorcycles which were created by a Toronto-based talented sculptor named Dan Tanenbaum since 2010. It is no exaggeration to say that the motorcycle models are really extraordinary and unique. As if this bike can run, not by the machine but because it is made from parts of the vintage watch parts.
The motorcycle models have average length size of 6 to 8 inches long and 3 to 5 in high. (Picture from: http://adf.ly/1dbVxy)
These motorcycle models have an average length of 6 to 8 inches as well as 3 to 5 inches in height and is sold at a price of £700 or approx Rp.1.2 million. From the model results, we could see how detailed the miniature motorcycles were made with almost all parts of the motorcycles were there.
Amazing level of detail at this motorcycle can be seen in this picture. (Picture from: http://adf.ly/1dbVzR)
He also said that it takes 40 to 50 hours to construct one piece of the miniature motorcycle. The artist said he did not have too much problem finding an appropriate watch parts because knowing that the parts used to be found in the trash bin. (Wanna see another Dan Tannembaum works.)
Parts consists of 50 different watches per motorcycle model. (Picture from: http://adf.ly/1dbVzR)
Currently, Dan Tanembaum had a lot of orders to create the miniature motorcycles from around the world. Furthermore, he said that the UK and Europe is actually the largest market for his miniature motorbikes. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | WATCH PARTS MOTORCYCLES | LAUGHING SQUID]
