The top picture is hysterical!
That guy sure is talented, I poked around his site a bit. I can't imagine what one of those models must cost! I used to build the plastic model kits as realistically as possible, I know how much time it takes, this guy is starting from scratch with no kit!:notworthy

Nice picks :D :waving
"I have road in these type of trucks plowing the roads and it is a fun experience. I started to keep track of how many mailboxes he hit and went flying out the side of the plow, but I lost count at 25. ha,ha just kidding. Snowplow drivers would never hit a mailbox. ha,ha."
Here is my favorite quote from him. :D
The funny thing is the general public actually thinks that plow drivers fill in their driveways on purpose & hit their mailboxes on purpose.
I would love to hire him to come along on a plow shift. We here never have time to take really good shots for the most part IMO, but we enjoy each other's pictures anyway, cause we are living it. He really seems to have the knack for getting the good shots. Thanks for sharing that site with us.

I invited him over to our site. He's quite the machinist I think, sent me a picture of his JD with reversible side wing that he built for it. I'll try to post the picture.

Hi you guys,
I am better at working with a piece of steel than I am working with the computer. ha,ha.
My daughter Nicole helps me a lot.
Glad you enjoyed my website.
Everyone loves the flying mailboxes. Well, almost everybody. I followed my friend for a couple hours last winter and waited for him to hit some snowbanks to get the right shot. It was fun watching him . It was also fun riding with him. Last week he was driving the motorgrader and a guy pulled in front of him and he almost ran over the truck. The guy was pinned inside and had to be cut out. He is ok.
I'll try to get a few more pictures .
Happy Holidays,
Don C.

I loved the mailbox part too and I'm sure we've all "accidently" hit a few.. What bugs me is the ones made out of like cinder blocks where ya gotta back up and hit them two or three times to knock 'em over.. Man, scratches the paint and everything..
