I have made quite a few things in my lifetime. It seems like I always choose the hardest things to make so I usually only make one of them. I never use kits because I like to build things from scratch... It started when I was young. I used to build Crystal radios and balsa wood model planes when I was in my teens.. Some of the things I have made are: a tooled leather holster and belt, clocks (quite a few of these), stained glass, metal toys, a dry washer (for prospecting), A Dulcimer, a knife, did some metal casting, and a couple of display cases. Oh, and the wife and I built our house, from the ground up...

Here are a couple of pictures of the dry washer and one of my grandson holding the Dulcimer. The Dulcimer was built from hand cut Cherry wood from my uncles farm in Indiana. The pictures are kind of small.
