"Nuts And Bolts" Farm Toys
Gary Nash, Only, Tenn., recently sent FARM SHOW photos of some hand-crafted "nuts and bolts" toys that he makes for sale.
  "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.
