very nice  :clap:

Looks good, dude!  Although I like the bare metal finish better, I have to say...  But I know how it is; what the kids want, the kids get!

Ya, I like the clear coat look. I hit them with a coat or 2 of Rusto clear. I like the gloss VS matte.

Thanks for the props!  :clap:

Spider gear spiders


I think I like the one with the gear tooth side up better than the smooth side up.

Note the pitting. Good Ol D35's :lol:

More pitting.

took me a bit to notice that fish inside the coil spring - that's hilarious

Diff cover from a 72 Vega. It was pretty rusted. Took me awhile to get it cleaned up.


The pulleys I got from a buddy of mine cleaning out his garage.

It's not as heavy as the dog. Prolly around 30# or so. It's real head heavy. I was worried it wouldn't stand. If I do another one I'll change it so it's not so tippy.
I wanted to have a mouse hanging by it's tail from the cat's mouth, but couldn't figure a way to make a mouse. So I did a fish.

Thanks for the complements guys! :beers:

I figured out how to do a mouse.


They are breeding already! :yikes:

Here is another fish.

The tail is made from 4 allen wrenches.
