    Shake, rattle and roll

    I got tired of shaking rattlecans, so I took an old sabre saw and made this contraption. It works really well, and the paint sprays beautifully. :thumbsup: YouTube - ‪Paint shaker‬‏

    My scooter build

    In November, I decided I wanted something to ride on my small property and the surrounding county roads. Money was a real issue, and I love designing and building things.
