    Thanks guys, I seem to have a knack for building sharp objects! The thing hanging over the fish head is actually and engine valve from an airplane motor. We drilled it out in the lathe to make it slip over the shaft, in doing so it caught fire because it was sodium filled! Awesome!

    Amazing idea... that you basically put just one cut into such a simple shape, that blue cylinder, and that cut "revealed" the two basic shapes needed for a car body absolutely floored me. Very, very cool. Gary

    Dan, good to see you here, your stuff still rocks as always! Do you have prints of that last one (the yellow sprinter/midget) available?

    Jen, really liked the sign, either someone has an eye for color, and how they work together, or they don't....you have the color eye.... but when I clicked the photo, and saw the variegated foil work on the helmet....well....to me, that was badass...foil work like that just screams drag racing to me....and anyone that screams drag racing is a friend

    My friend is building a 37 Dodge gasser. He is going to leave the body the way he found it and just focus on the performance. Did a little drawing for him (oh yeah, his last name is Moore, for the spelling)

    Fantastic work everyone! Here is my humble contribution. I did this sign for a buddy who put his F.E.D. in a local indoor show last weekend.

    Thanks cleatus
    The yellow Vic was chopped, channeled, nosed & decked into the green example. In 3d of course. I had shown it here last year i guess, but added (or removed) some tidbits. Here's another render:
