About me:

I've been called "A homeless Isaac Newton", "Teddy Roosevelt on drugs", and "A Snidely Whiplash face-ass havin' muthafucka, who looks like he should be tyin' bitches to the railroad tracks and shit"

I like to chop and ride bikes and dig through the trash. I like to do this with kids in the ghetto and in Ghana. I make things out of metal. I marry people. I work for festivals.

I'm kind of an old fashioned guy.

Check out Chicagofreakbike.

Check out my article on how to make a pennyfakething in Steampunk Magazine #2.

Take a look at my portfolio.

I'm also in Rat Patrol

    That Log splitter is one scary bastard! We just got back from the North Coast Ag Show and I watched the new you-beaut portable mill. Geez it was good.......when I think back to the Papua New Guinean walk about saw in action (about half of it was bamboo)

    Incidentally there was a hydraulic log splitter I've seen footage of (safe and nancy-pod) but powered by a chrysler hemi..Ha ha! Farmin' with Nitro.

    Dude, I'm sorry to hear no matter what, but if it was the one that we went south to see all those years ago, I'm sad on a personal level, they were very nice to me while I was there.
