As I mentioned before, these ray gun trucks evolve. They grow, change, then one day are finished and go to a shelf in a gallery or someone's home...

I am not totally pleased with the ray gun part of this piece (see previous post).  I DO like the mount and the brass bit at the swivel in the center, but....

So, I had to go over to Astoria today and was thinking about perhaps finding some bits at the Astoria Vintage Hardware architectural salvage store.  After I finished my Home Depot chores and bought food at Costco, I headed on into town to see what Paul might have.  Well BLESS HIM, he took me back to the back of the shop and opened a secret room to me where he stashes juicy bits and said "dig around in here, see what you can find".  WOW, how cool is that!  This is what I came out of there with:

This shows part of the process of constructing one of these things.  I see now that the ray gun pedestal (part of a vent from an old Spartan trailer) is way out of proportion, so, by now it has been modified.  This truck will be constructed and de-constructed many times before it is finished.
