T-Rex
I'm not very good at welds, but wanted to show off last winters project. Its finished and out in the front yard but have not got any finished picks for you yet. I just a beginner welder and like creating unusual items.

The kids and I made a small tractor (its also in the front yard) we had a great time and was a nice Family project.

I would like to create a Deer for the back yard, if anyone has any pictures or web sites it will be greatly appreciated.

Re: T-Rex
That is amazing. I'm not sure my wife would allow it in the yard though.

Great job.

Speaking of jobs, that guy could get a job eating metal in a scrap yard.

That would scare the $hit out of me if I bumped into it in the daylight.

Re: T-Rex
Thanks guys,

I hated cutting up the old saw but it was all i had laying aroung at the time to use for teeth. I did find another angle on the T=Rex.

Heres a cannon I made from an old telephone ploe and 2' x 6's (sorry, didn't weld any on it though)
I will get some more picks later today or tomorrow and post.

I was looking at this earlier, my grandson was walking by at that time, and stopped dead in his tracks, and simply said WOW!

Nice work!

Re: T-Rex
Hey Indiana!

Do you live in Indiana or is that just a user name?
If you do live in Indiana, what part do you live in?

Ken.

Re: T-Rex
New Castle?
Why, your only a couple counties away from me here in Huntington!

Interesting projects or creations, the T-Rex looks amazing, the rust on the teeth and jaw makes it even better, it looks like dried blood!

Ken.

I had a Deer decoy that fit perfect in his mouth.....but my daughter saw it and "Freaked" out, so I took it out!

I guess the college fund is going for a Therapest now...just my luck!
