It's amazing what some folks can create with imagination,
persistence, determination, skill, & a little hard work!

The time went by a bit to quick for us. Maybe a four night stay next time.Coincidentally, my family & I also got away this past Wednesday-Friday at a campground,
but since I no longer own a camper, we had to pop for the lodgings at the lodge.
Played mini-golf, & explored one of their local caves. Great fun!

There are quite a few DIY spot welder videos on YouTube and you can also find other info on http://www.homemadetools.net/I tried to spot weld, the perforated sheet metal I'm using for the engine block, but it's to thin.
I was able to do it in a couple of tries, but mainly, it wasn't happening.
Thanks for the tip Kevin. I have seen the homemade tools site, and there are plenty of great ideas on there.There are quite a few DIY spot welder videos on YouTube and you can also find other info on http://www.homemadetools.net/
Really ? They look OK to meNot wishing to appear picky but, the two white lights/reflectors between the wheels are at different heights. That could affect the roll centre and adversely affect the safety and handling? Maybe they have moved and need to be set in stone.
Seriously, it should be a wonder to behold. Great job.
