'Other stuff' that I've been
building
Back ground to the project
As well as building vehicles and
things of that nature I occasionally get the urge to build 'other things'. These
are just a fews of them I have done recently.

Initial drawings and ideas
There are any as such, I just do some
research ( on the net, books, magazines etc) and then go down the shed and give
it a go ~ I guess I have plans in my head?
Pictures
'retro' looking blues harp mic ~ crystal
element
  
If only I was any good at playing blues harp,
but I can dream
I have built another 'prototype' harp mic,
again small crystal element.
  
Got a couple of 'vintage' shure CM 99E556 elements and had an
idea for a 'palm' mic ~ watch this space.
snow bike built for my mate Steve Turner ~ allows a normal
mountain bike to be made into a snow bike for winter fun. Can be put back to a
normal bike afterwards.



I wanted to have a go at 'speedball' the boxing exercise.
Haven't got room on a wall to mount the platform so I came up ith a door
mounting system. Works well!

Had a go at building a few three string 'cigar box' guitars,
one of them is actually a biscuit tin (a Canjo?) the cigar boxs both have piezo
pickups, one of them is fretless. I made a simple bottle neck slide. All tuned
to open G ( Gdg).
