Lori from Mama with a Dash of DIY Drama has been obsessed with the artifact gear art from Restoration Hardware since it were first introduced. It almost seemed like a personal challenge to see if she could locate similar pieces. Lori did just that from the scrap heap of a tractor dealership. After degreasing and painting the gears, she mounted them onto a piece of trim to create a cool piece of art with a modern industrial feel.
Lori was inspired by the Tractor Wheel Gear from Restoration Hardware.

Donna, I was kinda hoping you’d like these!!!! Thanks – Lori
I love this idea for my husband! He is a biking fanatic (my sister has counted 13 bikes hanging from our garage ceiling last night!). I’m sure that he would really enjoy seeing pieces of bikes as art.
Nancy, thanks so much! I’d love to see some pictures of what you create! – Lori
