Clearly it's a rolling planter with magazine slots on either side. Cause, you know, plants like to read too.

The rack on the right seems to be for a computer. The above rack seems to be for clothes. The bins on the left seems to be for .... shoes or potting soil. Okay, I've got it! It's a computerized clothes horse.

Looks like the beginnings of a barbecue grill, to me.

It's a lemonade stand on wheels!

WEGA! Or some other large screen TV for Abbye to bark at Lassie.

Leonardo stamped all his shop drawings "Not to Scale."

Those are all excellent, imaginative guesses. All wrong, of course, but still good tries. ;-)

In fact, I'd probably be better off doing some of your guesses rather than what I'm really doing.

Anyway, I'll try to keep you posted with progress reports. Given my track record with these projects, it's possible I'll still be boring you with this in December.

Is it a tool caddy? i.e. rakes, shovels, hoes, weed whackers....

Do you have a new job working in a fancy hotel? Looks like a bellman's luggage cart.

It's an all-in-one contraption for Abbye Care!!!

Phyllis, our whole house is already devoted to that undertaking; there's nothing I could build that would expand our commitment, other than a printing press for currency. ;-)

Becky, while the bellman's job would pay better than building websites, that's not it. But your first guess IS correct!

How do I claim my fabulous prize?

Yeah, like being related to me by marriage isn't fabulous enough. You crack me up. ;-)

Yes, the phrase "simple" gifts would apply here.

On our recent trip to Italy, we saw incredible works by DaVinci and Michelangelo, among others. Quite a few of these works were unfinished, yet still are revered as masterpieces today. (Even their preliminary sketches.) So, don't stress if you aren't able to complete your project. Brilliant minds are just wired up differently, don't you agree?

Brilliant minds are just wired up differently, don't you agree?

Well, you're obviously fishing for a compliment here, because, otherwise, I have absolutely no context for responding to such a question.

So, yes, I agree; there's mysterious wiring at work. ;-)

Gonna be sellin' hot dogs on the streets of Midland are you?

Ooh!! And be sure to include fresh bagels and large soft pretzels!!! I can just see you with little magnets of the Midland skyline stuck to the bottom of your cart, for sale courtesy the COC!!

And use all beef franks, please.

Y'all are making me hungry...and therein lies the problem of my becoming a street vendor. I'd eat all the inventory.

Well, except for the magnets. Probably.

It's a rolling bicycle rack to hang up your recumbent; custom fit for a spot in the garage. Storage for wheels and rims on one side, shelf for tools on the other (or a nice potted palm). Bin on bottom for accessories and junk.

It looks like half a double-wide. Please tell me it's not.

Shoot, woman, I cain't afford me no double-wide. Cain't even afford the old tires to throw up on the roof to keep it from blowin' off.

Deborah, that's not it, but it does give me an idea for a future project. ;-) However, one of the first useful things I ever did with my little welder was modify a roof rack for a standard tandem to fit our ultra-long recumbent tandem.

Phooey! I just knew I'd figured it out! I hope you'll share work-in-progress photos as you go along so we can keep guessing.

Ooh, well...I hate to break it to you, Deborah, but someone already guessed the nature of the project, somewhere in the preceding comments. But if you still want to be surprised, you can stay tuned for the progress reports.

Sorry I missed this. I was going to say it looked like an aquarium stand. Either that, or a go-cart (if you saw the go-cart my brother and I built, you would understand). ;-)
