One of my small batches of beer (96 IBU's)

I'm not a big hop head, but that looks tasty.

Here's a blonde of mine for you.

You definitely have to be in the mood for that type of beer to enjoy it. But it does tastes excellent.

Here's something my shooting buddy and I made today. First home made reactive target built for a .22. Hopefully we'll be making some more complex stuff for pistols next.

I make replica Star Wars movie props and sell them in various internet forums to people all over the world... seriously.

Here's a few of my works...

Scratch-built Stormtrooper blaster (based on a Sterling SMG) and display stand from PVC and other "brik-a-brak":

Here's an older version in the raw before paint:

Oh yeah.. the folding stock works too:

Here's some of my Star Wars genre armor kits:

That's the actual landspeeder used in the movie (that's me on the front right):

Here's a helmet I've been working on for almost 2-yrs. now... going to make a molds of it and replicate it in gelcoat fiberglass... I already have scores of people on a waiting list for one:

Here it is in the early stages...

And let me leave you with this image taken at a past Starlight Parade (we are in that every year)...

Well, I didn't make the box, but I made the "mailman" that holds our boxes plus I made a dog to go along with him. (doesn't every guy need a dog?) The man is a big chunk of chain, a go cart axle, a couple of coil springs (out of a 69 Mustang 428 Cobra Jet car, no less!), VW bus diff for a head and transmission shafts for the most of the limbs. The dog's chain with a 4x4 front spindle for a head. Get a lot of comments from people when they see it for the first time.

Very cool stuff Stomper! Looks like a ton of work. I assume that you do this as a hobby.



Thanks! Yeah, its a hobby that has blown up into a supplement to the day-job income... I usually make my mortgage payment from the sales it generates. :s0155:


Since its become a "part-time job", its not as fun as it used to be... I've not lifted a finger for the last month on anything because of it. :D
 
I made this center-lock wheel nut machined from stainless steel and the matching socket machined from solid brass with replaceable drive teeth:

The nuts hold these custom billet wheels (that I did not have time to cut :():

On this multi-million dollar street rod known as Ferrambo :s0155::

I have to come clean: This was a paying job. I did a bunch of design work and cut parts for this car after hours at work over the course of a year. I only take on wacky projects like this because they are fun. In fact, I've got so much to do with my "real job" plus my own fabrication business that doing stuff like this makes no logical sense at all.... therefore it must be a hobby, right? :huh:

This project was really cool to be involved in. The car won the 2008 Riddler Award and was on the covers of both Hot Rod and Super Rod magazines. The little-known thing about this car is that it was built entirely by craftsmen in the NW. Nothing was shipped off to be done in California or elsewhere. Every person that worked on the car or components thereof is within driving distance of Divers Street Rods in Startup Washington! And they are all some of the nicest people you could ever hope to meet... except for me of course, I'm a real jerk. :D
 
Since the theme is leaning towards home entertainment I made this:

And a few thousand other things.
 
Bike I built for a "rad rod" bike build off. The bars, front end and all the rear suspension stuff I built from scratch as well as the hand hammered copper seat.

This is one of the coolest projects I ever worked on. I collaborated with the artist Anna Shear. I built the thing, she designed it all and did all the little infill and glass work. Its in the side of a QFC in Ballard Washington. I am currently building something very similar for a condo complex in Seattle
