dang. just read this thread and have found myself looking for 2002's and shop space...i hope we can see some updates in the (very) near future. keep it up.
Haha I know guys it's terrible. I'm just as (if not more) bummed that this build has come to a halt, however I will say it's all for good reason. The '02 will get finished in due time, but I need to focus on building a name for myself. I'm in the works of some pretty cool stuff at my shop which I will be revealing fairly soon here. I appreciate all the encouragement though, and it's nice to see people still care about my build!
Haha unfortunately I have no updates, as usual. BUT, I am making big efforts to raise money as my shop is my livelihood now, and as amazing as it's been, I have been having a rough year. I just posted a thread yesterday regarding some new products that I've been developing, and I'll repost it in here because among many other things that I'd like to accomplish, I REALLY want to finish my BMW.
Here is what the thread said:
So I am in the process of creating a line of custom table legs/bases that are perfect for dining tables, desks, conference tables, coffee tables, etc. They are designed to bolt up to any table top, whether it be a nice large slab of wood that you've been saving or a custom top that you designed and crafted yourself.
I'm totally captivated by the feeling I get when I see my ideas and efforts evolve from a concept to a physical, finished product. There's a different sense of pride that comes with building something with your own hands, rather than buying it at a store. These table legs are essentially my way of trying to pass that feeling on, because I don't think people get to experience that enough. You're basically buying an unfinished project that requires your own efforts to complete. Let's build a table together.
At the moment I have 4 styles available, which can be custom built to any dimension to suit your needs. Available in any powder coated color or textured finish or just raw uncoated steel if you want to take care of that.
If you are interested in purchasing, you can visit my store for pricing and custom order inquiries: www.etsy.com/shop/MikeyGaumann
Any support would be hugely appreciated and would totally help me make some much needed progress on my BMW 2002 build (link to thread in my signature) that basically hasn't been touched since I acquired my shop space over a year ago. Dying to finish that thing!
Here are some photos showing the different styles. Any comments are appreciated:
