Show us something that you MADE

I made my wife a wine (or hard booze) rack a few xmas's ago. bought 2 fence planks, cut a couple u-bolts in half, and got some pipe holders. Quick, simple, and pintrest-ish which the wife loved.

Based on Overnight Sensations? Nice!

Built it a while back and it is super, super simple but still used often - my shop towel holder

SR20 valve actuating tool for my flowbench

4AF valve actuating tool....

Not really a fabrication project, but I made some zines.

And, looking at that photo, guess you can figure out where the cover on the right was shot.

Is that an Altoids tin?

A set of concrete steps we did that I have on my phone. All one pour too, it came out pretty awesome

Dang, good eye. They're actually early "modern" Graphites fitted with Kool Caps.

I made both these seat covers:

And I made this seat cover too:

Yes, that's what I used.  The Parts Express kit made it easy, and they happened to be the right depth to fit in the suitcase, so I took advantage of a sale.  With a little help on the bass from the sub I added in the middle, it sounds quite good, actually.  For a suitcase.

OH, I am so stealing that design.  Nice.  I have a pile of old con rods, and I'm always trying to figure out what to make with them.

The All-Purpose Shielded Product Box.  My stereo racks are littered with them.  I also make these breakout boxes that let you use regular earbuds and a cheap lavaliere mic with a Chatterbox, instead of their miserable boom mic/earpiece.

WTF?!?!?  If you hadn't included the build shots, I would not have believed these were not actual helicopters. Amazing, simply amazing.

Thanks! 

It's a great hobby, but darn near as expensive as playing on the track!  

In reply to JBasham :

So that's a Yes, right?  Nice!  If you ever need 11 to 34 more let me know 

Not real recent, but I built a tandem axle trailer for my British cars, that I later used for my CRX race car. 

In the middle of turning this into something useful 

I cut some wood jaw pads for my vice the other day. I'm impressed by what others have been building.

A MUCH nicer interior in my truck. That looks like 1995 factory, but is much quieter and with a bigger stereo.
