Show me your garage art, wall hangers, signs or anything like that YOU YOURSELF HAVE MADE.

No store bought, ebay, online, or even from that guy at the craft fair. I want to see what kinda homemade art we have here.

I'll post mine up as soon as I can get pictures.

Geez................... I could fill up pages on here with the stuff I've made over the years. As much as I love gas & oil stuff, this stuff is way too expensive to buy so I make it. Probably worth more to me if I made it than if I bought it.

I made this from a real Corvette rear bumper having to cut the portion off that wraps to the wheel openings. Had it painted yellow to match my car, it came off a wrecked silver Corvette.

Bought an autographed John Force connecting rod. Took the photo myself at the Gatornationals. Made the plate on my computer and put it all in a shadow box.

Kind a did the same thing. Got bored a few winters back and made a coat rack from wood. Free handed what I thought looked like the back of my vette.

wow! the (wood ) gas and oil stuff is amazing! do you sell that stuff?


I've had few offers to sell or make things for people but I never have time. I've had people ask me at car show's if they can borrow a few of my items to show along side of their rods. I just get bored some nights and go downstairs to my shop and start cutting away?

I don't know if it's considered "art" or not, but here's the sign I made to officially name my shop:

The shape matches the exact profile of the real building because I used data from the CAD file to produce a scaled down version of the outline. An in-process shot:
