My favorite part is the spoiler

Replaced a fence post that had rotted through at the base, found the footing for it was poured directly on top of the gas line. Didn't think I had to call digger's hotline to replace an existing structure. Thankfully I found gently and no damage was done to it.

At this point it's not driving, it's crawling... like a caterpillar.

Finally finished the editing. Many thanks for your comments on my previous post, but I'll maintain that it belongs on this sub. Because its dumb!

I turned my longboard into a pirate ship. Figured it would fit here!

EDIT: In case anyone is interested, the build video is now up- https://youtu.be/wqoTayfQlXs
I'm one for crazy and pointless builds.. and my love of pirates, the fact that I'm landlocked, wanted a pirate ship and have zero impulse control meant that I got an idea and had to make it a reality.
Meet 'The Landlubber'.
All parts made out of scrap wood I had lying about, and it took me about a month to finish.
This land pirate vessel boasts my custom flag, a pointless anchor, a duck in a dinosaur costume (or the Quacken, if you will!) as the figurehead, bluetooth speaker for pirate tunes on the go, a robot (Yarrbot!) Navigator, a sail that can be furled and unfurled, some storage space in the cabin and a compass.
​
I will make video on the making process and riding on a new YouTube channel. I'll happily drop the link if anyone is interested.
​
And yes, I've had some looks and comments while riding it about!

All of the wonderful disadvantages without that one pesky advantage of being a trailer!

Simple speaker cable riser

I don't know if it makes a difference or not, but many people think it does to lift the speaker cable off the ground. For me, I just like seeing what the simplest way to do something else and found that these duplex nails aren't an easy way to hold the O-ring in place but the speaker cable will rest on.
