Dangnabbit Pitchy, ya done good... Not to many would make it happen like you did.
Are ya becoming like one of the city bred nu-yarkers that gotta have a poop catcher behind thar horsas?? Poop bucket, har har har

Joe, the painted rocking pony...
In the last pic, just over Joe's tail, theres a stack in the background. Looks a lot like an old tractor intake pipe.. whats it relly for?
You sure do have a few folks amazed with all your toys for sure..

Yeah them rocking ponies tend to be too slow for gettin away from marauding Indians don't they. So no arrows is probably a very good thing here!

Lenn, that's a mighty fine looking Indian pony. Any brave would be glad to own that one.

Thanks fellars, been away a couple days letting my brain cool down.
The thing rocks pretty good, one of these days i`ll ride it over to the field and shoot the gong a few times off ole Joe.

smokenrust, that`s the smoke stck on my Ryder hot air engine i built.

OK, so I have a humungous rocking horse named after me. Coool! Now where is the video of you riding it and shooting off it?

That would be the one to take to a cowboy action shoot. That would be fun.

Pitchy, just don't leave that horse near a pasture or fence during hunting season. Somebody would think it was real and shoot it.

Joe

Thanks Joe, your right someone would shoot it around here.

Owen here`s another one we made yesterday, it is for kids of course, springs are made from garage door springs shortened up.

Love that horse

The poop bucket is a great addition too

The one for the kids gives me an idea for my young grandchildren.

Thanks Pete, the original picture of the last horse used a leaf spring but i don`t have any so made it with the coil springs.

Here it is on ebay.

Whoa, You're outdoing me big time. Good job. I have to get going. I'm a little bashful when it comes to wood work, 'Cause I have to do it for others a lot.
I did put a new propeller on the plane and a Jari hood on the cart. I also bought a Yardman 17 hp twin for $50 and rewired the electric magnetic blade clutch. Owner said it wasn't worth the $400 for the new part.
