How Watch-Part Motorcycles Are Made

tanenbaum motorcycle

Toronto-based artist Dan Tanenbaum has been making miniature motorcycles exclusively out of vintage watch parts since 2010. He began by collecting classic timepieces and now he spends his days making custom pieces to order. We’ve previously featured other similar artists, but what sets Dan’s work apart is his unique style, sense of photographic humor, and that he just made a neat video showing how he makes his sculptures. It’s really interesting to watch one of his pieces come together. Thanks for sharing, Dan!

I'm a word nerd who loves to geek out on how emerging technology affects the lexicon. I was an editor on the first 40 volumes of MAKE, and I love shining light on the incredible makers in our community. In particular, covering art is my passion — after all, art is the first thing most of us ever made. When not fawning over perfect word choices, I can be found on the nearest mountain, looking for untouched powder fields and ideal alpine lakes.
