That's some mad skills!
They have a store in my area called "Hobby Lobby" and it was not what I thought it was 
it was more of a decorator girlie store. Anyway I was already in the door and it was raining so I walked around for a few min and saw that they had motorcycles and cars made up like that. I did not see bicycles or I would have grabbed one. but that is the closest i can come to helping anyone out.

We have a hobby lobby here too. Great place to get fabric for seats, stuff for creating wood bike tanks. and they are the only place in town I know of that you can still buy model cars.
leather,paint,all kinds of stuff; one of my favorite stores.outskirtscustoms said:Meeba said:They have a store in my area called "Hobby Lobby" and it was not what I thought it was

Just over 15 years ago... when I was in high school... I took this art class where you could do whatever you wanted. I would make tons of stuff out of wire. This is the only thing that is still around.
It's a vace with flowers in it.
I made cars, people, buildings and all sorts of other stuff.
Oh, and don't worry people, I will talk to the cleaning crew about the dust in the curio cabinet :lol:

Unfortunately I was not impressed at all with the store. They did have a few good things there, but not enough to warrant me going back in a hurry anytime soon. I am lucky enough to have an old hobby shop (Trains and Lanes) and and a guy (Fantastic Plastic) where i can get all my model car stuff when i need them. Leather, well my best friend has his own leather shop so I am set with anything leather that i ever need, I just have to make it myself and he helps me if i get stuck. I guess I am either lucky or spoiled to have other choices besides a chain store to get my supplies. willing to trade some flat ground for a few stores?
Here's my version, made this out of 1/4" steel rod and some various scraps of tubing....
