The new Time Machine


I was commissioned to make another Time Machine. I have learned and grown a lot, and also purchased some different materials for this adventure, and adventure it was!


Some in progress shots. Here is the box laying on my home made magnet jig. And a little can of Humbrol oil paint. This paint is awesome.



It took months to complete this project. But heck, towards the end, I was snowed in anyhow :)



The little time machine required lots of soldering of tiny hand made parts. Scary! I had much fun turning brass, including my own turned brass pins. 



The box is all hand painted.

on the little lemon tree:


This little guy is definitely not in any hurry to grow up! It's a slow go, but he's working on his second set of leaves.
