Boots, I showed the mail box to the guy at work that started the whole thing by giving the "inspiration" before hand.........he chuckled then looked at me thinking. I am pretty sure he may attempt the 1:1 scale version real soon!! (((LOL)))

Hey Guys....Gals,

I'm thinking this is pretty much my last up date before I tidy up a few things and call it a wrap.

After having to make the tackle box, it was only right to make Another Pole to go with (mainly because the first one was fixed in place in the gun rack!!!! ) Hopefully it won't seem to redundant to show the new pole now that I have the basic complete set now. You can Blame boots....he told me I needed to add the lure. ;D (Thanks Boots)



[size=10pt][size=10pt]Special Thanks: To Ken Abrams for supplying me with the netting material to finish the....ummmmm, net. You Da Man!!!! [/size][/size]



I figured I would ruin the truck owners afternoon...on top of the front end needing repair....I game him a Dead Battery....Go fishing on a work day again??? I don't think so!!!





Next stop....the final pics!!!!

Thanks for stopping by to play!!!! ;D

T!

Holy coolness factor man, I swear you've been cruising around this here little old farm town, snapping pictures of some of my neighbors yards man! ;D

The battery charger is nuts, I've been there myself.

 

[Myke]

I'm really not sure what to say here. This is proper art! It mimics real life so well. Just looking at it I can smell old truck, and tackle box. I can picture an evening with the mosquitoes buzzing around and hear the crickets chirping and feel breezes off the nearby lake. I can feel the ballcap on my head, and grease and mud under my fingernails, and a days worth of summer sweat on my neck, and I'm going fishing with my dad.

Brilliant piece of work.

--shakes head in disbelief--
Just when I think this can't get any better, you do something like this.
This is incredible

 

[Grendels]

Ok, now you have me convinced that there is a hidden shrink ray somewhere near your location!

 

[TRM]

@ Ken - LOL....been there myself....WAY too many times!!!! ;D

@ Myke - Thanks for that awesome visual...making me think back to those days now!!! What a great feeling!!!! You are too kind!

[Solander]

An AKB-85 batery charger?.. Well, nice, but the output voltage controls are 7 picometers higher than they should be - You should be shamed making such obvious inaccuracies.
LOL ;D ;D ;D
T, this is way SOOOO COOL!! Two thumbs up!
Even my gf, being introduced to scale modeling only through my obsession, said after I've showed her the photos of this model, that she's going to register here on SMA specially to vote for your Ford
Can't wait to see the finished pics!

 

[JohnSimmons]
