Creative

Kinetic Wind Spinners

Use the DW890 shear (with a fresh center blade) to cut concentric spirals and wavy forms from 18-gauge sheet metal. Assemble with swivels and bearings to create garden wind spinners and mobiles that catch light and move in the breeze.


Garden Sculpture Petals

Cut curved petal and leaf shapes from sheet metal using the swivel-head shear for smooth arcs. Form and rivet layers into modular flowers or vines, then paint or patina for outdoor installations.


Art Deco Lampshades

Shear intricate geometric cutouts and scalloped edges in thin steel or aluminum sheets to create lampshades and lantern sleeves. Roll the panels into cylinders and seam them for striking light patterns.

Design and cut decorative patterns into sheet metal to replace standard HVAC vent and register covers. Create themed motifs (nature, geometric, vintage) and finish with powder coat or clear lacquer.


City Skyline Wall Art

Trace and cut city skyline silhouettes or topographic lines from metal sheets. Mount them with standoffs for depth and add backlighting for a dramatic wall piece.
