WELCOME to the board!

Great pix!  You're off to a running start.  When do we see pix of smoke and flames?

Pretty cool. I enjoy seeing how people develop their designs.

I am working on making my first carriage right now. It has been a lot of fun to figure out all the details. I do not have any diagrams or designs so I am getting my dimensions from photos and guessing.

Welcome, centermass, I enjoyed your vid. Your first project looks good enough to be your tenth, you did a fine job on it.
RIP John. While on vacation July 4th 2013 in northern Wisconsin, he was ATVing with family and pulled ahead of everyone and took off at break-neck speed without a helmet. He lost control.....hit a tree....and the tree won.  He died instantly.

The one thing that you can almost always rely on research leading to, is more research.
