Re: Latest project
Fantastic work!! Did you design it, or did you build it from existing plans? What finish did you apply? Where did you get the tires/wheels? This is a very impressive piece. Thanks for sharing.

Great project I would say there may be a grandson involved. In the past other similar item were posted, my money is on you did those too.
It's good to let the child in the back of you mind time to play the smiles it generates cannot hurt either.

Re: Latest project
Thanks for the kind remarks! Yes I did design it myself. The finish is an automotive spray bomb. Was going to powder coat it but my HF gun just quit. The wheels are from roller blades. I think we all have little boys inside us. But there is a 5 year old grandson involved too. He's around the shop quite a bit. His dad and I share the shop.

Re: Latest project
The old "Tonka Toys" last forever and they are probably less than half as thick as the gauge that you used. This thing can be passed down to multiple generations. Maybe even your great, great, great, great, great, grandson!!
Nice job!!

This is fantastic! Would you consider selling the files? I have two grandsons that would be over the moon if I constructed a couple of these for them.
