    These two are sitting on a shelf at work. Made another small box blade and gave it to our son, he plays with it outside.

    Trafficologist. What I really do is boring as crap. Getting to work in traffic is the highlight of the day.

    I have found all kinds of stuff I made on my computer at work, here's a trailer I made for our son. He had a plastic one and it rotted so I used the axles off of it to make this. The tractor he has hooked to it was one of mine when I was a kid. It's the only one that survived my childhood.

    I like the challenge. I don't sell them, I either keep them on a shelf here at work or let our son play with them. He thinks I can do anything, for now, lol.

    I do some tractor work every now and then. Our neighbor had a power pole laying in his yard and I ask him if I could have it. He said sure. Took our son with me to get it and didn’t want to drag it home so I drove over it and chained it front and back.

    Our son has been wanting a toy excavator with a thumb for 3 years. Can't find one. Decided to make him a thumb for his. Had my buddy that runs the powdercoat place paint it for him.
