TK is sooo close to finishing the roadster pickup that he has been building in his free time for more than ten years.We picked the car up from the upholsterer this morning. Mike Peterson of Peterson Upholstery executed a beautiful chocolate brown 2″ tuck n roll on the interior sides, back and seat cushions.

Outdoor Projects

Wood Grain Concrete Planter

It’s Memorial Day weekend so everyone’s attention turns outside. We wanted to share some various projects that TK has fabricated  to help people enjoy their outdoor space. Some are in  the middle of being installed now and some have been completed for some time.

Speaking of fabrication, TK and I have been fans of Morgan over at The Brick House for a while now and we had the pleasure of hosting she and the boy for a day of fun and welding in the high desert. TK was blown away by what a natural born welder she was! I know we are going to see some amazing steel objects showing up in the yard of The Brick House soon.

TK made these steps for his Roadster Pickup that he has been building for many years. These are one of the final few details. He made the brackets from 1/2″ steel and foundry pattern of MDF with lettering cut out of acrylic. Last weekend, TK was able to start up the roaster for the first time! It’s been a long time coming but this project is almost complete. See a history of the build .
