Its Been A Long Time

  

I always liked to build things, Create stuff, make things. My first word ever wasn't Mom, It wasn't Dad. It was in fact screwdriver. I have always loved tools. Big or small, red, pink, yellow or black I do admire them all. As a teenager I had never really ever used power tools. I had no power tools and no one took the time to show me how useful they are. Till Trace did. Before that I had always used hand tools as its all I had and is all I was used too. After  Trace got me into power tools hooked. I now have access to some amazing tools. Without power tools I believe making this test piece would not of been possible. Its amazing what a diamond bit and 60,000 rpms can do. This is my first attempt at engraving metal. A test. Would of been easier if I had a CNC machine. Maybe next time. I cant afford one. I do plan to try to build one. Not sure how that will go or how long it will take. Without the inspiration of Trace I don't believe I would ever even attempt such a project. I would like to Thank Trace for all he taught me and the impact he had on my life. I just hope Trace likes it as much as I enjoyed making it.
When and if I finish this project up I will post the results. Hope you enjoy also.






Not Many Words, Quite A Few Tears
Miss you Bro


Above is the final piece it is the saw blade used to cut up the
Tree House he made for his kids.
 After years of weathering
the Tree house was taken
down because it was falling apart.
