This is Sopan (garbage) that we used to haul trashbags from the workshop to the bin.... a small garden hand trolley and a worthless bike. Small embedded pic is a friends skate bike i made useable for him, skateboard wheels in front, standard rear wheel. fun to ride after i find out how to steer it :roll:


I had one of those skate bikes, "Le Run" I think. You just lean into the turn and the skate wheels steer. Kinda takes some getting used to.
 
Spoon handles are often used for coater brake arm clamps, but I used one recently to make a kickstand extender:

I used a 1948 Chrysler tail light for Firewing. Below that you can see the flying 8 ball I made from two tricycle wing badges and an 8 ball. Also in this photo are the flames that I cut from a roll of yard sale aluminum roof flashing.

The knob and tube idea on Gumby Rumpus is one of the coolest ideas I have seen. Wacky and cool!!!
