It’s been a while. Since getting cleared medically I’ve been working crazy hours at the prototype shop. I’ve been able to do some quick pieces, and a few more Benders, but this last weekend I had a couple days to pour into something a bit more involved. About half way through I was like. “Yes. Hell yes.”

For future reference, do you do commission pieces?

It must be good to be back in the saddle again. You sure haven’t lost your touch.

It’s bittersweet. I’m happy to be working, but the left wrist is worse after 3 surgeries than it’s ever been. Pain is brutal. Doc said the next step is to fuse it. Fuck no.

Fuse it!? That’s crazy. That would make it almost useless. It sucks to hear about the pain though. That can’t be any fun.

The old Effies are my favorite(I've owned a couple), although this was commissioned. Kind of a pro-street/resto-mod he’s going to autocross. LSX powered, actual truck is gonna be nuts.

Love the F100. Much respect to you and your skill. The Benders are great, too - I can’t see his shiny metal ass in the photo, but I’m sure it’s there.
