My wife likes fall colors. So I went to the shop awhile back and made her a maple branch in fall colors. Textured the main branch under the power hammer, cut the leaves out, attached stems, welded to branch, colored and clear powder coated. Her liked it
I cut the angels in the heart on the plasma table color them and powder coat clear. I like to give these to places and/or people involved in cancer treatment. I attach a little brass sign made by the local trophy shop that says "Angel's work here". It is true that Angels work in places like that and I learned to love those caring people when they were treating my wife.

I wouldn't call your stuff junk....very nice stuff is more like it.

Bill,

"Some of my junk" sounds more like a share from the Tinder app than a share of real craftsmanship.
I think you should take more pride than that.
I remind myself how awesome my job is, every day. BUT I have no idea how to make steel look like Maple leaves in Autumn.

Respect your own craftsmanship. You deserve to, because you're GOOD.
