Johnny Swing, sculpture, welder, and all around imaginative guy, welded the couch out of nickels after finding the penny medium tough to crack – although, he did eventually sculpt a penny chair as well. It took 300 hours and weighs 125 pounds.

The recycling aspects of art like Swing’s is incredible when you think about it. This is reuse at one of it’s finest hours if you ask me.
Swing has so many delightful objects at his site that you really do need to visit – sit back, take a look, and be amazed.
