Kathi Pin It

A little insight

I have been working with recycled metal for a little over ten years. I seek out, not new, but old industrial castoffs such as farm tools and antique tractor parts. These pieces, that are featured in my work, hold the history of our farming and logging communities from rural Oregon. I have family roots in these fields, so by using parts from old tractors brings a feeling of connection to my family’s history. I feel it is my duty to save these special parts from being melted down for “scrap metal”. It makes me cringe every time I see a truck loaded down with metal, headed for the scrap yard. I just have to wonder what great parts I am missing out on!
