Your kids must think you're awesome!

im just hoping it will stop the grandkids from being screen junkies, use their imaginations. i like projects which are quick to make, not sure id have the patience to do what your doing Baz.

i am going to take some inspiration from your work though and craft a jarah cake knife in the near future.

Todays project, all from the scrap bin, ripped on bandsaw, sanded and cut to size, wheels turned on lathe.

Well now, the build is finished! I have a compressor on the way to use with my new Iwata Eclipse airbrush, and the decals are also in the works. I will put them on and weather it using the airbrush, but all the building is DONE!

In between a thousand other projects, large and small, I thought I'd have a bit of fun with a heap of junk destined for landfill.

Mech has been a bit of an interest never followed up, so it's time to try my hand. There are lots of cool mech references and artists online to take inspiration from, but I really want to come up with my very own shape.

Aside from a very loose stick-figure sketch to begin with, I am essentially making this one up as I go along, very much dependant on the materials at hand.

I still have a lot more tech-looking gear to attach to it before the armour plating goes on, then a paint job with my new airbrush system I got for my birthday.

This took about seven hours so far.

 

[Sandbagger]

Made the two rear hydraulic rams and attached them and their hoses. Started on the right weapon pod and started to bling it up with chopped up cable ties.

[Manpa]

Finished this morning a cornhole board for our after Xmas dinner games, basically you throw a 150mm square bag filled with dried corn to a sloping board and try and get it thru the hole, its a nine metre throw to a 150mm diameter hole. Thru the hole 3 points, on the board 1 point, played in teams or one on one.
Scoring is a minus game, if I put one thru the hole and three on the board I get six points, if my opponent gets four on the board he gets four points, his four from my six gives me an end score of two. First to twenty one.
Second game was a marble drop for one of my daughters friends.

 

[RockRat]

Good job Manpa, your a good wood worker.
I'm sawing up some wood for next years projects.

 

[Manpa]

What are you up to Rockrat, some nice slabs there.
