Post your pics.

A walnut four poster I made when I was 18....



Built-in cabinets in progress (long way to go)

I just finished refurbishing an old, home made log splitter. Had a guy weld up an adaptor plate for a new HF engine, mounted it, replaced decades old hydraulic fluid, fixed everything I could find that needed fixing & painted it. This thing is a brute. The rail is a piece of railroad rail turned upside down.

Gratuitous? No way...you asked "Rebuilt"

First big project at 19. I learned a lot. Like gaps are never 'good enough'

You have just given crack to an addict. I apologize in advance:

1961 Fender Showman; Re-did everything short of the transformer in the amp. Built cabinet from scratch.



Arcsine guitar; Made body from scratch, Warmoth neck, finished

[arcsine]

JSL Guitar; Using Jaguar body, moved bridge, routed for P90 pickups, waiting for new Warmoth neck.



Gulfcaster guitar; sectioned and chambered body, routed for pickups, painted and finished, Warmoth neck.

1978 GMC Motorhome:
New engine, ignition system, carpeting, more electrical work than worth mentioning. Rear disc brake system going in this spring.



Trek Fuel Ex9 and Ex8; Had one, upgraded enough parts to be able to make a second, now I have a spare to load when we ride Galbraith Mountain.

I built a gocart frame for racing on my track out in the back field. I used thin wall square tubing for the painted parts, and found a bunch of pre-bent chrome shelving units for the bumpers and nerf bars in a dumpster behind a resturaunt I parked behind. We ran slightly modified alcohol Briggs Raptor 5 HP motors, and twisted them about 6000 RPM.

We would start watering the track with my feild sprayer about 8:00 in the evening in the Summer, and end up putting about 1000 gallons down while working it in with atvs. After dark, a buddy had a industrial generator with a light stand that lit the whole track. After the sun went down, the track would get super sticky and we could run about 40 MPH and not lift for the corners (just slight understeer)......a whole bunch of fun and loud too !

P.S. Post picks of the sweet track car.

Work stuff count?

A sample panel (more of a sample room really) for a power plant.

Put together at our shop.



And installed at the plant
