I just finished a prototype of a toy tractor.  In the next few weeks I will have the complete project and maybe some video posted.

I love building things and I have an insatiable curiosity for finding out how things are made.  For instance I think most people do not have any idea what hydroforming or broaching is let alone how they work.  If you want to see videos of manufacturing processes and a few virtual factory tours I recommend you visit manufacturing.stanford.edu and check out their “How Everyday Things are Made”  section and watch a video about how jelly beans are made or how Boeing assembles a 777.

Our new look is coming, you might notice a few changes already such as a new logo!  I apologize for the virtual construction mess, but look on the bight side virtual sawdust isn’t as bad for you lungs as the real thing.

Too many projects at one time sound familiar to anyone?  Well, that is my biggest problem.  I have not even finished all the postings for projects I have finished and I am starting another major project, the “Build a Bed” project.  Below you can see my initial concept  sketch.
