|  | Queens & King Bed of Beds
A man walked into my shed, with stack of timber that he had saved from a bridge at Saint Albans - and a vision. Taking his thoughts, and applying my talent, I designed and built this bed. He was so impressed, he rang me each day to tell me how good it was. He then ordered another. Strong four bollards and hand holes, this is a bed made to love in.... |
|  | Rickshaw Bbq
Rickshaw bbq I was found one day in my workshop, this lady said, I have been told that you are a man that can make anything, and on my veranda I have a big stump, and I wish to have a bbq and pizza oven build to strut. It was great change, as you can see by the photos. It was made from gas cans, tuck wheel ream, a forty four steel base and a air bottle, two tuck mud grades a plougher arm and a s/s keg and pipes, much sweet and thought and of course Love for if you don’t love your work, it wont work out in the first place, fitting it on the stump is another story. Thank you |

Helmet letterboxes This is a letterbox comes with a effects, it first started out in life as a gas bottle made from finest steel and galvanized till it got retired, It’s use by date cost more for labour to test then to by a new one. I Dave Thurston have been recycling items and adding workmanship and imagination to my work most of my life and I started using gas bottle because most of the bigger scarp yard are closed to the public by Gov, work cover shame shame. This letterbox is indestructible just set it in concrete, and for get, Good looking stylish stands out from the rest. Helmet letterbox’s are waterproof in all wethers, with sun visor on the front and steel lip over the opening door on the back with a lockable catch, just add padlock. The Helmet letterboxes are weld with stainless steel wilding rods, to last a lifetime. Spray painted with hammer finish inside and out, can repaint ever five year with a spray can take you five minutes. I have been thinking about this new idea of mine I need to get the Helmet letterbox to Everone how wishes to buy and join the line of made in Australia out of recycle items. The helmet Letterbox can fit in to a box and be shipped anywhere in Australia by courier mail service for around $50 on order I will email you a quote.

|  | Bender on the town
Hello David,
Yes you may use any and or all of the photo's I sent you, however I will ask you not to mention my name or address ( other than No.9 )
I can report that the postman, on the Monday morning after I put him up spent 10 minutes checking it out. Obviously he had never seen such a wonderful work of art.
My neihgbours all love bender and one neighbour who is home most days all day, tells me that the ammount of people, walkers mainly with either dogs or kids in tow has trippled up our little culdesack, and all stop to look at bender.
You can see from the photo's that I added a hip flask, and, that is a painted ping pong ball atop his antenai.
Also and this is a big plus. I had 95mm rain last Friday and the mail was sitting in the collender, bone dry.
I will leave the padlock on as most admirer's want to touch, and I am sure would want to open his tummy and look in. I feel it better that strangers don't look at my mail.
Any how, yes I am very happy with bender.

|  | The little Boat The Tom Thumb
A little Boat The Tom Thumb Being open minded to most creation Jamie walked in to my working work shop the fist thing you notice about Jaime is he laugh and smile with his eyes and I new that he was delight in finding me. We talked about art and sculpture soon he came to the point could you build a small boat a meter long for the new Kibble park in Gosford and a Eel and twenty little fish. I said a meter long that just to small with the timber, I have, but one point Two could do, and a s/steel Eel, this is how it started it went from timber to steel, I had steel that I had brought ten years before, to build a boat with, so it was just a beneath of fresh air to build the Tom Thumb in steel for kids to play in. Flinders a master navigator I had the same in counter in the southern ocean. Betting of the coast of Albany. This Dolphin came up out of the water on her tail, in front of the bow, she then dived and came up at the stern, flipping her head back ward’s as to say come with me! You could end up on a lee shore to night that had crossed my mind. With the sun, now dropping fast. And know detail chart of this part of the coast, I looked at the Dolphin eyes the trussed and love beamed back with out another thought I turned Flodash around, sucking up the information I set sail after the dolphin she would jump out and do circle in the air landing on her tail, with her head back waving her flip’s, she took us in towards the coast and as we rounded this hill pick this bay open up. By now it was like a magic thought between the Dolphin and I, she took us up to the head of the bay just around a headland in four famous of water I set the anchor, and pulled up tight. The Dolphin now so happy swimming around Flo with one flipper out of the water. I dived in to check the anchor and the dolphin dived with me and touched as we both agreed that we where save and would survived the on coming storm At the time I did’ ant know the name of the Bay Some week’s later I was tilling the story to bunch of yachters in Esperance And Tim piped up and told me the same story from Flinders journal and he name it Luck Bay.
