We're not done yet , there are also a couple of "Judges Choice" awards selected by myself and Chuck !

Chuck's Pick : I'm going with Smokey's Glitter Bug .. he went beyond the call of duty using bits and pieces scratch building his fishing pole and holders from left over materials ... I think it depicts what the contest was all about !


And my pick : The Wrusted Willys by Ratroddah . I really like his neat shop made from the box . . . the Willys is really cool too !


That's it folks !
