    So I've seen some pretty amazing things on this site, the trucks alone show a certain degree of individuality and creativity. My favorite part of many of the threads I frequent are the pictures of what someone has made, which is anything from sandwiches and dinners, to building projects, artwork, and photography.
    As a teacher and artist myself I know there is a certain sense of pride and satisfaction in being able to show off your hard work and talents. I and probably countless others out here in TW want to see what you've made.

    Post a pic of something you've created lately

    Here's an example:
    One of the classes I teach is Ceramics, This is an project I made showing them how slab construction can be used.

    Actually, this was a cornhole set i made. Everytime we wanted to play, never could find a set, so i just decided that i wanted to make some.

    This was first put together

    This was the bottom coat

    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1414763185.157372.jpg

    This was the first part of the painting

    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1414763308.740913.jpg

    This was the final product

    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1414763339.973683.jpg

    Well I don't NEED them either! I just enjoy them. I have 7 of them now, some for work some for show. I also have some old Two-cylinder farm tractors restored but these are much easier to haul and store. The larger 430 Diesel in that one pic I use to plow gardens in the fall, it has brute power!

    Made a pub sign for a buddy of mine. He wanted a reproduction of a sign he saw in a movie. I know it's misspelled, it's like that in the movie too.
