American Carriage Builder: Political Pressure
http://americancarriagebuilder.blogspot.com/2010/06/political-pressure.html
Tuesday, June 22, 2010. Remember the Trap Sleigh project that we started on in the last blog? A big project that rolled out the door since my last blog was this Brewster Park Drag restoration. A spectacular vehicle that we are so proud to have restored. Projects like this are interesting but one thing about them is they seem to go on forever. Details, details, details. Whew. Have a great Tuesday! Glad to see you back blogging! Facebook takes a lot of time. June 22, 2010 at 9:57 AM. Adana Ev Eşya Depolama.

American Carriage Builder: March 2010
http://americancarriagebuilder.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 16, 2010. It’s a great day to be outside taking some pictures. But before I get to that I attended the Community Development Association meeting last night. Lots of positive things happening in Columbus these days. My friend Steve Sobiek our Economic Development Director has been a busy guy. Steve’s position is both Economic and Energy Sustainability and he certainly has been putting Columbus on the map as a leader in green energy. Monday, March 15, 2010. Was yesterday nice or what? At lea...

American Carriage Builder: April 2010
http://americancarriagebuilder.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 16, 2010. Midwest Horse Fair Weekend. There are not too many equine events in America that rival the Midwest Horse Fair. The event starts today and runs through the weekend in Madison at the Alliant Energy Center. The event attracts over 50,000 spectators over the course of the weekend. If it has anything to do with a horse, it's there. Take a day to hit the fair. It’s quite the experience. This is the other side. It has been pretty much stripped and as you can see has some very nice de...

American Carriage Builder: August 2010
http://americancarriagebuilder.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 20, 2010. Do the Times Compare? The automobile was a huge mechanical advancement for the average American at that time. Such changes they were witnessing to go from the horse and buggy to a self propelled vehicle. The Wright’s had flown their airplane. What a marvel. Are we in the midst of similar times? The body was then primed in our urethane sanding primer. After priming the body goes through a sanding with 220 before heading back to the booth for the final coats of primer. The runners ...

American Carriage Builder: July 2010
http://americancarriagebuilder.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 20, 2010. Can you believe we are a month past the longest day of the year? As usual summer is going really fast. We have been very busy working in the shop on a number of different fronts. It’s great to be busy but that always tends to make the summer fly by. We have really ripped into this sleigh over the month of July. If you look closely in the first photo the runners were completely rotted along the bottom in need of replacement. So everything comes apart, blasted replaced and p...The b...

American Carriage Builder: December 2009
http://americancarriagebuilder.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 16, 2009. A few months ago I had a sleigh to get to Canada for a client. We thought Port Huron, Michigan would be a good meeting point and he could take it across the border. I had never been to PHMI so I thought it would be a fun little trip. I came away feeling pretty good about the Port and the view of Sarnia across the St. Clair River. What a classic Art Deco façade. Looks to me like a much earlier building that was converted more than likely in the 30’s. This buildi...Oh and look...

Friday, October 30, 2009. Go Ahead Watch It One More Time. I know a number of you have probably seen this video but I never seem to get tired of watching it. I think it is the best of the driving videos by Tim Maloy. Good selection of music, action and well edited. It is a great way to promote the sport of driving. Beekbergen - Apeldoorn 09. 8220;Our plans for next year include another coaching run with the Bowman’s (Ireland, Scotland who knows! I’m going to post updates on a couple of projects in ...

American Carriage Builder: July 2012

Saturday, July 7, 2012. Does Your Rubber Keep Slipping Off? Sorry about the title but in my line of work I’ll never get to write about such a provocative subject again. Figured I better make the most of it while I had the chance. As if building great carriages wasn't enough we provide wit and humor free of charge. Bottom line there are no simple repairs. To do it right the wheel would need to be stripped of paint, chemically washed and new rubber installed through the same adhesion process. Then ...There...
