"I make toy replicas of tractors and motorcycles from bolts, nuts, and washers, as well as cross necklaces from horseshoe nails," says Nash. "It has been a good form of relaxation since returning from service in Iraq. My friends and family really enjoy them, and I've received a lot of compliments on the quality and attention to detail. Word of mouth is spreading through our community, and I've had a number of requests to purchase."
Tractor - Available in Deere green with yellow and black detailing, Farmall red with black detailing, or Ford blue with black detailing. Constructed from 3/4-in. dia. bolts. Measures 10 in. long by 6 in. wide by 7 in. high. Each tractor is hand crafted so dimensions may vary.
Sells for $40 plus $7 for S&H. Medium and small sizes also available.
Motorcycle - Available in black. Measures 9 in. long by 2 in. wide by 4 in. high. Hand crafted so dimensions may vary. Sells for $30 plus $5 S&H.
