A while since I've been on here. I've been making this...

[woodbutcher]

It actually is a 'precious thing'!

Agreed, so many lovely little touches, it is a joy !

Fantastic! I built things for Gti Junior but out of wood, not metal.

Did you photograph it in the cornfield just after your rendezvous with the alien space craft, which made the crop circle?

 

[gavroche]

You are a very skilled metal worker. I think we are all dying to know what else you have in mind. Keep us posted.

 

[Arjimlad]

Just uber-cool... brilliant work. What a lucky grandson !

Thank you.

I have probably 3 more cycle related builds I want to do:

I'd like to do another full mudgaurd racer but a different design to the blue one. ( this may happen very soon.....)

I fancy having a go at a funky folding bike.

 

[loopybike]

Oh and I want to make one of these around a recumbent.....
I don't know when I'd use it, but how awesome would it be? Lol

 

[loopybike]

For now though I'm part way through making my own car, but that's for another forum! Lol

My head is also full of sculptures. I did a giant eye a couple of years ago and auctioned it off for a children's cancer charity. I have LOADS of other ideas!

 

[Fnaar]

That is absolutely AWESOME!

[Milkfloat]

Good luck. I suspect at that price it won't sell, even though the effort that went into it makes it a bargain.

Is there another project on the go?

 

[MontyVeda]

That belongs in a design museum... the price tag is fair for such places I reckon.
