Fabrication Work Seen In GM Commercial

Kerry was hired to fabricate another unique device. This device had to be capable of producing a very specific type of flame from a controlled explosion that could be safely filmed. His work was a minor part of this cool project, but his special skills helped add an authentic level of detail.

Fabrication Work seen in Ford Commercials

Kerry was hired to fabricate several totally insane, but cool devices, all powered by Ford’s EcoBoost Engine in order to highlight the power of this small, but mighty engine. Kerry’s unique design and fabricating skills were on full display during this project. It was a complete success and by far one of the funnest projects we’ve had the pleasure to be part of!

McLean REO 6 Bike

In the usual Kerry McLean style, Kerry’s undertaken another interesting, unique and fun project. This time he’s decided to build a small custom bike powered by six REO engines! The REO engines were used in the 1950’s to power lawn mowers, snow blowers and the like. In Kerry’s world, they’ll be used to propel this super small bike to who knows where. This project was built as a tribute to the Mid-Michigan Antique Machinery Association Clio Show. Enjoy!

ABW Recumbent Trike

This recumbent trike was built to give the rider a serious workout. It was originally built for a handicapped man, but he was unable to use it as his physical condition had worsened. I had the opportunity to take it out for a spin and I was surprised with how well it handled and I felt comfortable with it in only a few minutes time. Just like riding a bike!
