    My wife never asks for much for Christmas but I got her a few things she did ask for that I could order. I usually go shopping for her but due to the current situation I opted against it. I decided to make her something.
    At work we sell these small tear drop campers made to fill with wine corks. since we have a kinda oddball camper nothing is ever made for it so i decided to make one she could put potpouri or a candle in. We have a Taxa Tiger Moth which is an odd little thing but we enjoy the hell out of it whenever we get a chance. I figured this was something she could take to work and keep on her desk as a mini escape.
    This is all hand formed out of steel. It's not perfect but the staalizer jacks screw up and down in the front, the side door opens, and the wheels roll. I did the top with expanded metal so the potpouri could scent her area and the plates on top reresent the solar panels and the front cargo rack.
    our camper:



    her gift:







    Hopefully she likes it that was about 30 hours worth of work

    I knew it was Hawaiian since I have been there a time or two but I thought Chuck was fluent in the language.

    I am an old dog that can't learn new tricks. I would love top speak Hawaiian as well as Tagalog.

    My wife is Filipino and to this day when she is talking to someone in Tagalog it sounds like the teacher talking in the peanuts cartoons.

    wa waa wa waa wa. wa waa wa waa wa.
