latest bonehead metal project

[Bonehead]

here is a little ( really little) different project, a frame and body for My son's RC rock crawler. Father son project. Bent some brake line, (following Gastrick's how to bend brake line thread) welded it up into a cage....

I say we all pack it in and head over to Boneheads...!! I am personally going to bug that guy to give me a job..!!!!

 

[donsrods]

That's cool. You realize though that your Son will now be bugging you to build a kid sized one so he can climb rocks for real.

He drives mine too much already, but I would rather see him in the seat of my buggy than alot of other places.

I'm with you,, some of my greatest moments have been shared with my kids ,, watchin them race karts and mini sprints.

I thought I had better add this one to this thread. Found a bunch of bowling balls at a junk store and thought this project up. He is balanced there at the hip. The cycle is welded down.

Hey Bones, long time since we last past each other...............I am really glad to see you are back to feeling some what better from last year. It took me nearly a year to recover from my back surgery, but it was worth the time to recupe as well.
You are a very special and tallented person in our rhelm of rad rods too. I guess I can speak for most of us, you are more of an icon to us and we all love your tallents. I only wish I could do some of the work you make look so simple.
Have a great X-Mas and best wishes to you and your family.

Maximo

 

[Bonehead]

Thanks Max! Really nice and very touching sentiments. My back is still getting better, I know it will never be back like it was, but it is good enough for me to get back to making things, which, besides my family, is what I live for.
Merry Christmas, to all of my extended family on the big triple R.

[redrider]

Bonehead,

Without a doubt, you sir are a master welder! That piece is a work of art.
What would a piece like that cost a fellow?

And Merry Christmas to you and yours.

 

[Sam_Fear]

Very impressive. Not as a shifter, but as art. Even cooler that it's a shifter.

 

[Gastrick]

Is that for sale?

You said that very well Maximo! I agree with that 100%. That's exactly why I asked Bonehead to fabricate my air cleaner cover for my 51 F1. Just having something he built on my truck will be a real honor. If anybody can make what I want work - he can! I'm gonna keep it under wraps for now but after its finished I'll post some pics. It's a pretty cool idea and I'm really surprised I haven't seen it done already.

Thanks 22! Always good to hear from a serious art collector such as yourself.

Thanks 55, I am doing pretty well now at well over a year since major surgery, but limited to 40 pounds of lift.

Very impressive. Not as a shifter, but as art. Even cooler that it's a shifter.

Thanks Sam, At the rate that I make them they are both. Sad news is, like all great works of art the value will only go up after I die.

Is that for sale?

Custom made for a Rock Crawler Buddy of mine. His wife is driving his rig alot now and he is giving it to her for Christmas. His request was, " a female skull" " kind of girly". But you know me, I had to make it a little scarey too.
