Sometimes I get asked to build different things, I usually do it and don't ask what's it's for. My sister called and said her friend wanted a giant set of lips I told her they have injections for that. She said you're real funny, I'll send a pic. I don't know why but I guess she wanted lips on her wall and was willing to pay $100 so by God I'm gonna make some lips. I know this probably shouldn't be on a site like this but I figured what the heck it's interesting if nothing else. I looked at the picture she sent and gathered up scrap from the coffee table I built earlier. I rolled out freezer paper and drew some lips. After I cut em out I just layed different width boards on top of the pattern to cover then put the pattern on top and traced around it. Then I just cut the lines on each board putting it back in its place until I had em all cut. Then I used scrap to tie em all together using finish nails until I had the top and bottom made. I guess they don't go together according to my instructions from her. Then I just flipped em over used a 60 grit disk on the grinder to grind down the nails and knock the rough off and I had a set of lips. I used the brightest red paint I had to paint them and sent her a pic. She loves it, you just made $100. Easiest hundo I ever made, took about an hour. Don't think less of me for making crafts, I need money to finish my boat project since all my cash just went to putting a transmission in my Land Cruiser.

Thank you sir but this one didn't take much skill. Any pics of her friend? Let's just say these lips may be her best asset.

Excellent work. It really is amazing what a woodworker will be asked to make or build. So far no lips for me.

Nice work, not a bad way to make a quick $100!
What Land Cruiser do you have? I'm a LC fan.

Nice! I had a 93 FZJ80, but am currently driving a 99 . My wife has an 09 GX470 (mini cruiser). I assume you're on MUD?
