TooOld Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 That's very nice Anne ! And it looks doable even without a lathe , I might give it a try ! The three spokes of the wheel on the car look like PE , or are they from the plastic wheel ?
John Teresi Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Anne.......very impressive !!!!!!........that was treat to see.
Danno Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Grand Slam Home Run First Time at Bat!!! Every time. Amazing. Again! Ever missed?

kitbash1 Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Anne that is just so cool !!!!! I would have never thought of making a steering wheel that way. I bow to your genius.
Harry P. Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Oh, come on! You call that scratchbuilding? Where are the finger grips on the back side???
Mooneyzs Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Anne... Nice work. Nothing looks like wood other than using actual wood. Very nice and impressive work.
Taxdude Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 That is some great work. Just wondering but have you tried to make one with an even thinner rim?
John Teresi Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Words just dont come out........Teresi my friend .......there a new "kid" in town. seems to have raised the bar .....going to have to find a lathe jawdrop2.jpg Lanny.......I agree.......Anne just may be the new Sheriff in town .
Danno Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Lanny.......I agree.......Anne just may be the new Sheriff in town . Hey, hey, hey! I'm the Sheriff! And, the police chief, too. I know everything.

CrazyGirl Posted May 24, 2013 Author Posted May 24, 2013 thanks for the kind words everyone , but I have to make another , thinner and with finger grips , all because of Harry LOL , btw I ground a finish nail to use as a boring bar and the hole saw just cut the blank
Art Laski Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Wow, Anne, impressive creativity! (and execution). You're like MacGyver!
