i dont have a copper scorpion
but i picked up this today:
its a 100l copper geyser
im a plumber by trade
but i actually prefer doing scrap
so when i was called to check a faulty geyser, i killed two birds with one stone
i installed a new high pressure geyser
and pulled out this baby
the tank alone weighs approx 40lbs
its not much but sure does look nice.

Nice hunk of material.
Google first ask questions later!

Very creative, imaginative, and artistic. Maybe we could start a SMF Flea Market to sell some original scrap metal art work.

Glad you guys all like it. I should have put something in the pic (like a pop can) so you could gage the size better. The tail is probably 1/4 inch thick wire, if that helps any. Probably weighs a pound.
Wish I could say I made it. Was given to me by a young man at one of the places I clean up. He said Mexicans taught him how to make it when he was working in Texas. Lol.
Edit: Thank you Mechanic 688 or parrot, or admin for moving this to "Made from Scrap"
I think I originally posted it under "more than scrap value" Made from scrap makes more sense.

In NZ, its called a 'hot water cylinder'. In the early days, and in some house setups, there's a way to heat the water from a fireplace or a coal range, using a 'wetback'. (Which I know from experience is hillarious to you Americans)What is a geyser? Here in the states, down south anyway...that would be a moonshine stil.
When they first started using electricity to heat the water, often they just added a shorter version of the cylinder above the first one and called it a 'superheater'.
Nice Scorpion, it impresses me when I see stuff like that. I have the artistic ability of a lead fishing sinker.
