Lincoln Welders , Craftsman Belt Sanders , Drill Presses and Hand Tools, Milwaukee Band Saw and grinders, and TSC Farm Store made this one of a kind model possible by Northern Michigan Toy Builder , Don Campbell .

Lincoln Welders – I have been a hobby welder for many years , never had any welding classes , but I have six Lincoln Welders and one Lincoln Plasma Cutter . The small 110 welders have worked excellent for building my models all steel models over the years.
I have submitted two of my all welded , steel models to their Lincoln Magazine . but never made it in a issue. Someday I hope they will see how handy their Lincoln Welders for us hobbyists.
MILWAUKEE TOOLS have been in my workshop for many years. I bought a Milwaukee hand held band saw 25 years ago and it still works . But I recently purchased my second Milwaukee Hand held Band saw as it is the most used tool in my shop. I have bought 8 Milwaukee hand held grinders over the years . Four of them quit as they just need new brushes . My Milwaukee cordless drill is my best investment too . It is so powerful !!, I never wanted a battery operated drill, but I couldn’t live without it now.
SEARS TOOLS – Good old Craftsman Tools , I have put my craftsman tools through a lot over the last forty years and they have always proved to be excellent . Even my 30 year old Craftsman Toolbox looks rough , but works great.
I still have the very first set of Craftsman sockets I got as a teenager for Christmas. So Craftsman Tools also played a big part in this latest model.
This is the first picture of the latest finished model .
