"Goober"

This little guy is quite the mechanic impostor. I took this picture of him in my garage which doubles as my shop and the place my wife parks her car. I put him in the garage so that he might clean/vacuum her car and change the oil while we were asleep. So far, he is not pulling his weight. So ... I took him to City Arts and sold the little punk.

"Sunflower the Cat"

I just finished this cute little kitty last night. Sunflower is a custom order from a customer. Sometimes it's difficult to see one of your pieces leave because you like it but the payoff is seeing someone else happy and enjoying the piece. What Sunflower doesn't have in softness, she makes up for in cuteness. Hope you enjoy this one.

"Heavy Brother"


Our home has a farmhouse, rustic, kind of vibe so I chopped up this block of wood I found and made an end table out of it. It sits next to our couch and is a nice new feature to our ever-improving abode. I plan on putting a few coats of protection on it once it dries out more. Let me know what ya think about it.

"Shelfies"

Here's a couple bobble-heads that sit on the shelf in my office. They look like my wife and I a bit. A friend gave me the Frankie-head a few years back and I saw the one that looks like me and bought it, completing the pair. It's really the Osbornes but don't tell them. ;)
When I look at them it cracks me up so I thought I'd share them with you. Hope my shelfies bring you a smile.

"Airstream Toaster"

My wife loves the old Airstream campers. Since we don't have the space and me don't have the money ... I opted to make her one out of an old toaster that we could both afford and accommodate space-wise. I found the metal lawn chair at the Antiques & More store here in Derby and thought it went with the camper pretty nicely. The chair isn't old and could be smaller but it's still a nice addition I think.

"Timeless"

Donna 
Frank


My Father-in-Law and Mother-in-Law (Frank & Donna) play timeless rock-n-roll from the 60's and 70's. They are a lot of fun to sit and listen to but it's not long before you are clapping, bobbing your head, tapping your feet, or dancing a jig. I created these little robots for them for Christmas presents. I hope you enjoy!

"Junk Rocker"

Here's a recent robot I built. He was born on May 7th , 2014. His name is My-Cool Bolt-on (Micheal Bolton) and he is quite the crooner. He loves to sing Rockabilly, songs from the Rat Pack, does a mean impression of Johnny Cash, and can belt out any 80's hit. He is currently on tour and has a new book (an autobiography) entitled, "Metal Headz".
