One dollar wire iron made of hundred yuan wire crafts

Red horses, golden armchairs, silver rickshaws, purple bicycles... It's hard to imagine that these beautiful crafts are from a handicapped person. Yesterday, Hu Xiangyuan, 54 years old in Huazhong Community, Shuita Street, Jianghan District, used one hand to compile the “horses” in the Chinese zodiac.

Master Hu was disfigured in 1980 because of his work and his family was not well-off. On one day in 1990, he saw someone selling grass crafts on the roadside, and he remembered the car he used as a child, so he spent 3 yuan to buy a wire. One of them spent 20 minutes compiling a bicycle, and a primary school student spent 3 yuan to buy it. Since then, Master Hu's creation has been “not possible”, “old Shanghai rickshaws” and “Russian dancers”... prices ranged from a few yuan to a few tens of yuan. A numb line made of copper wire was bought by a foreign friend for 100 yuan. In order to be an institution*, his hands had worn blood bubbles. In 21 years, he had compiled more than 10,000 pieces of iron wire crafts.

“This frog is the treasure of my family's temple and has been with me for 20 years.” This is the first frog written by Master Hu in 1991. His son had a frog at home to give him inspiration. The entire frog only needs a single wire, which is called 'a stream'. He failed 10 times and was satisfied only 11th time. From the mouth to the eyes, forelimbs and belly, they have been pondering repeatedly and the ribs on the back are the most vivid. He later made more than 50 copies, all sold, except for this one, and he was reluctant to sell for how much others paid. Master Hu said that his greatest wish is to make racing cars, European convertibles and other car series.
