Yep..I am selling it.... Right now I am working on the template for the centipedes....

I am etching the body segments and cutting along the outside of the body and where the upper portion of the body curves the legs have cutouts to give the impression of crossing legs. Just like the scorp.

Here's teaser pic of the Centipede:

That's pretty cool. I could see that on each side of the gas tank on a custom made bike.

I do plenty of work, in the down time or between jobs I do stuff of my own interest. The machine I run can cut plates of metal up to 3" stainless steel and 6" of steel. The tabel itself can hod a plate that is 10 foot wide by 40 foot long weighing up to 86,000 LBS.

What do those works typically cost?
If you would like one...please me me for details.
