I like it! I have an old sporty piston with a hole burned in it that would make a good conversation piece. The story involves a trailer behind the sporty, an ice chest and all the beer and ice we could cram in it then trying to lead the pack.

Looks like some great buddies for the first fellow, Pitchy. They sure make me smile with the expressions you have put on their faces. The cigar and cigarette are a nice touch.

To cool. Think you could make a lightweight soldier for the back seat of my bike? (2/3 to 3/4's size) Have you shot a Browning Hi-power? Todd3/leg
30/30 Winchester: Not accurate enough fer varmints, barely adequate for small deer; BUT In a 10" to 14" barrelled pistol; is good for moose/elk to 200 yards; ground squirrels to 300 metres

Oh Lordy! I just messed my shorts. That little nip smoking a joint and holding it with the roach clip is....is....just too much for me to handle. The wife and I are sitting here laughing so hard........we had to get an old towel to clean up the mess.

Pitchy, the wife says she has never seen the creative talent like she has with your art.

Your one crazy talented dude Pitchster. Our daughter stopped over tonight and I showed her the steam locomotive and she says, "somebody built that?.......that guy is smart!"

Thanks for the laughs......and the education that there's are still people who know how to build things....from scratch. :D ------6

SIDE.jpg
ACTION.jpg
Winchester stole yer idea!! They called it a Kiln Gun. It shoots 3oz. 8ga Zink slugs down a 48.5” smooth bore tube. The action design was based on the Martini beefed up to industrial grade and hard chromed for wear. I used to have to clean & PM them after a crew ran a case or two thru one to break up boulders that would form in one of our eight kilns. The thing was so loud even with its silencer mounted (the black thing built like a HD truck muffler screwed on the end of the action) we had to notify adjacent businesses in the area before we let loose.
