[Mike Flea]

What a nice project, very good handiwork

[Tossedman]

Thanks Mike. Definitely a work in progress.

OK, from the drawing board to the laser cutter. Made myself a new "kit" today. Glue tomorrow after a bit of sanding to get the smoke residue off.

once you get this to a level your happy with you should get yourself a blue star and sell them! impressive!

As much as I’d like to, selling them isn’t going to happen. The laser cutter is at work. It ain’t mine. I just get to play on it from time to time.

completely understand. nice to have access to tools like that. miss the days when i lived close enough to my family to be able to use the equipment in the machine shop.

So awesome!

[Tossedman]

Thanks Jato. Now, on to the exciting stuff. Glue is drying.

[Tossedman]

Here you can see how exciting it really is. Big clamps for a tiny trailer.

[Tossedman]

Bit more glueing done today. Almost back to where I was.

Without wheels it's a sleigh.

[Tossedman]

Well, there is snow up here half of the year. Maybe a sleigh's not such a bad thing.

Hopefully you have a big heater. Winter camping would be cold!

Haha. Thanks.

I wish we got good, deep snowfalls here in PA. These days we just get annoying storms of a few inches or less.

Im from IN, live in bama now. I remeber as a kid we would get 2+ foot of snow, now your lucky to get 6 inches, n really really lucky wen a foot of snow hits the ground.

Down here in bama, if we get snow, people get stupid! Common sense tells u slow down. But no, they get in a hurry to go get milk n bread before its gone. Like thier affraid theyre goina miss out n b snowed in for weeks. First time it snowed bad down here since i moved here, i seen probably 5 vehicles off the road in a 2 mi stretch smh

People here forget how to drive in the winter over the summer months. First snowfall there are a ton of collisions. Over time people get smarter in their driving. I'm an hour from the Rocky mountains here. Head out there on a snowy day and the ditches along the highway to the mountains are littered with 4X4 pickups and SUVs.

Cut a couple of holes this morning.



So I could add some lights out of the parts bin.



These Axial lights aren't too far off the real thing.

Okay, this thing is looking way cool! You are a wizard ��
