Again, a top job on these Kryn. A person's abilities when they are young are often hidden and only surface when they mature. I hope your teacher gets to see what you can do now.
Drawing these up in CAD should keep you busy for a while. A very generous offer you have made and I hope quite a few take you up on it and help you raise a bit of money for a worthwhile cause.Dallas

Thanks Treecycle. My second wife rang the education department to complain about an incident at the school her son went to, and spoke to my old woodwork, metalwork teacher who was quite surprised that I had a successful fabrication business, Australian 4WD Storage Systems and Accessories.

Hey Kryn,
Your work speaks volumes as to your abilities regardless of how you were seen as a student!.
My dear old Dad used to say you should always look under the floor of a Jeweller's shop.
Because a lot of "Gold" falls between the cracks!.
Somewhere along the way we seem to find ways to our goals.
It's clear to see you certainly have!.
Cheers
Trev.

Kryn,
Thankyou for sharing your information. It should inspire others. You have proved your teachers wrong - fantastic. My son too was told in form 3 (what's that now Year 9) that he too would amount to nothing. He got a double degree in law and commerce and is an accountant. It just goes to show what can be achieved. You obviously epitomise that. Really well done !!!!
Thankyou
Keith

Hey Kryn,
You've done an outstanding job on those trailers. Just outstanding!
I work in the haulage game myself and I know a few guys on our crew who would die for something like that.
You have a special gift. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Pedro
