I love it! That little pushmower next to it is great too. Nice work.
The underside of my mower. You are too kind.
Is that a weed trimmer in the back? I love the jerry can too.
My sister had a guy at a craft show make my first car, a 68' Charger, in a similar style and scale.
Weed eater, push broom, hoe, garden hose, square shovel, pointed shovel, and yard rake.
Can we see it?
Here it is.
That looks great. That would be harder to do than what I do. I'm no carver.
nice!!!
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming
WOW!!! What a Ride!
Forget the primal scream, just ROAR!!!
those look great, how long do they take you to make each? roughly
20 to 30 hrs. This is the most detailed of about 30. Windows, vent windows, windsheild wiper, foot pedals, and more.
looks sweet... no way I'd have the patieance to make something that small that detailed...
maybe when I grow up a bit more ;)
can we see the other 29...

Pictures like that make me feel guilty for sitting on the couch watching baseball.

Ahhh, nah!
"I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul." Invictus, by Henley.
this is the way I think about it...
if I tried to make something that small and intricate, I'd inevitably get pissed off and aggravated... a hammer would probably end up flying through the air and breaking something else...
so I'm better off not trying and just admiring someone else's work ;)
not bad.....not bad at all...the mower is just too cool

Thanks for the positive replies. Maybe I'll make more.
Make me a lil forklift. ;)View Image
That would be a good next Project. By the time you forget you asked I might have you one.
Forget I asked for what?View Image
Those are really cool and well crafted. One point, it's a dually.... give it a class 5 hitch. Sorry for being picky;-)
My 18 wheeler is for the heavy loads.
Just make sure you remember which fork he means. Not a warehouse fork, a construction fork.

Actually, I want a salad fork. ;)View Image
I thought he would want one for lifting 2nd floor materials.
Gonna make a little pallet of subfloor with it? :)

You want me to build the house too?
Well no... if the house is built, there's no reason to have the construction equip there ;)

You can never get ahead by getting even.
