The Life and Times of Bob Bolt

Bob is a lifesize metal skeleton that is fully poseable. He was created almost entirely from old rusty nuts, bolts and washers.  He is 80-90% anatomically accurate as far as bone structure (number and placement of bones, but not necessarily in shape).  I studied dozens of human anatomy photos to try and make him as accurate as possible without hiding the fact that he's made of nuts and bolts.  He can be fully positioned except for his spine.  His ankles, knees, hips, wrists, elbows, shoulders and head can all be moved/positioned in 3 dimensions.  He also has several different hands that can be changed out for performing different tasks.  From idea to completion, it took me about a month to create him.
