The 5th and probably last chicket tractor is now FINISHED.

Made from The Views window awning.

Cut the awning in the middle and attached it back to back.

Lots of repurposed shop items.

Took 65 hours to make this.

Its light and easy to move around. 2 big tires on one end and a castoring wheel on the other for steering ( from a free Market Place Chariot Buggy find).
Cormorants tail rotor torque links on the main wheels.
Old Labrador S and R helicopter windows.
Goose Spit driftwood for roosting.
Aluminum meshing for end walls (free from a while ago).
Rockwool insulation from F B 24 hr auction $5.
Nest boxes (plastic tubs) from last chicken tractor.
Plywood and aluminum extrusionfrom my shop supply.
I'm guessing 125 lbs.
Will be weighing this unit soon to see how much it weighs. That's way less from my previous Chicken Tractors.

3 Bar stools ready for your place

For the games room, club, or in your shop.

I repurposed these bar stools and are ready thier new home.
Beautiful Cast Iron Tractor Seat Bar Stools.
Repurposed components. Heavy cast iron seats.
Sandblasted prior to painting, priming and top coat.
3 heavy duty bar stools ready for use.
Two of them swivel and one doesn't.
The two outer ones swivel.
Bottom of seat is approx 30” tall.
Very comfortable seats.
Back in the day these tractor seats were very comfortable driving around the farm.
Swivel stools were priced at $250 each and non swivel was priced at $225.
These tractor seats I'm sure have history and if they could talk, it would be quite the story. They have travelled many miles.

This Fairy house has a new home.
Just finished this “Rock Root Fairy House”
This fairy house was put together with beach and bush finds.
The original structure with a large rock imbedded in the upper part, was found a a local beach ( one of my favourites.)
The other pieces are from my collection of special wood pieces. Built for the outdoors.
I hope your fairies enjoy tier new home Lisa.
Will post a short video below.
