Now all you need is a 3 inch Godzilla and some beer. That's what I call a good time.

this was a past job about 2 months ago but figured i would toss some eye candy up .....

this week, i'm finishing up a showcase display that is about 6'x8' with a hanging glass case all around and stained wood and brushed steel..... and i have this sculpture that i'm working on for a travelling exhibit...... next will be little jakes desk if i can get my 77 to him and i have possibly 2-3 other model jobs coming in...... depending if those come through, i might head to san fran for a few weeks to help a friend renovate some property right quick........ right now i have to take all i can get and make something happen...

i also have my t-shirt line coming out and working on a jewelry line (braclets/charms for now) and want to do a watch line but cant find the brains for the movements that i need.......

then the furniture line will hopefully come out in the fall.... mainly dining room tables and end tables for now.......


tooo many ideas and not enough space/time/money to make it all happen

more eye candy at 237am.com

to keep it vette related, i hooked up my ps pump lines yesterday and redid the large starter cable end that came from the battery..... i just need help dropping in and setting the dist. so my dad is gonna swing by and get it running.... then call little jake and set it up and then rip out the interior and tow it......
