Helicopter Lessons Boston

up for auction is an intro ride in a Schweizer 300 helicopter in the plymouth boston area. you will be given a chance to handle the controls of a real helicopter. i usually spend a lot of time explain things about helicopters and i welcome anyone who wishes to learn how to fly, or would just like to chat to come by gate 6 at the plymouth airport and say hello. feel free to see our website at htttp://www.acecopters.com

Scorpion Helicopter $9,100 SOLD

1976 Scorpion2, two seater. 133 horse-power. Like new condition. 15.5 hours. New starter, new battery, new fuel lines, dual controls. Rotor blades included same hours on rotor blades. Helicopter is complete, but in need of full inspection. Very nice, very sharp helicopter. *Helicopter has extra chrome pieces and was detailed for show. Comes with custom trailer. Helicopter has sat for 5 years. I recently bought it and last owner left fuel in it. I have already cleaned fuel tank and replaced fuel lines etc., but carbs need to be dismantled, cleaned, and put back together. I found I have not the time, nor the money for this hobby. Recently, I have talked to helicopter mechanics and they have said that any helicopter that sits for over a period of time, or 500 hours, should be dismantled and safety checked/ if not rebuilt. Again, I have no time or money for this project. This unique helicopter has been quite the attention getter! Very detailed and sharp. Complete helicopter/ all parts have only 15.5 hours on them and show it. Has been in dry storage since parked. $1000.00 deposit due within 48 hours of auction.BUYER RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL SHIPPING COSTS. I know and have a shipper that will ship this for less then $4000.00 to the farthest point of the USA. It will be less depending on your location. I will be happy to assist with shipping arrangements. Please feel free to email me at customcuts@hotmail.com or call me at 360-280-0311. Thanks for bidding! Shawn

Portrait Sculpture


Portrait Sculpture by Amy Medford

As a portrait artist, I am committed to the expression of the essential beauty and dignity of each person I portray. I approach each portrait as a sculpture which should stand on its own merit as a work of art. Ultimately, the portrait is the representation of a unique individual as seen through my eyes. In my portraits I aspire to sculpt my subjects as if they possess the power of thought.

The Portrait Commission is a collaborative process that begins with an initial meeting. Where time and/or distance is a concern, the initial meeting will also include a photography shoot. This will be the foundation from which I will work. If distance and time permit, 2-3 studio sessions will be arranged. I will also work from your images when there is enough photographs and/or reference material available.

I also sculpt posthumous portraits when appropriate photographs and/or reference material is available.

The time required for the portrait sculpture will be dependent on our respective schedules. It will be my pleasure to work with you to make this process an enjoyable experiece.

The final portrait will be kiln fired Terra Cotta and set on a marble base. Bronze or Resin casting is available, please contact me for details.

World's Largest Popcorn Popper



This is your chance to own the world's largest kettle style popcorn popper! This popper was invented by a Wisconsin man to pay homage to his favorite snack. This outstanding piece of machinery was used for a Make-a-Wish Foundation fundraiser in 1999 and in two PopFest's in 2000 and 2001 where it produced over 500 pounds of gourmet popcorn.
The 9' in diameter kettle is made of galvanized steel, while the 68" long handle was crafted from a white pine log for 30 hours.
This enormous popstir also includes a trailor for hauling it around.
If you are interested in purchasing the world's largest popcorn popper, please contact Fireworks Popcorn at 262.285.4800 to set up arrangements for pickup at our Belgium, Wisconsin location.

Prop R4 Droid


You are bidding on a really wonderful artpiece custom made from modified droid parts. This is the SQUAT model supposedly used in the lower profile ships (e.g. jedi starfighters). The ship designs won't allow for a fullsize astromech, so the squat models were introduced. This is R4. I call him STUBBY. He's yours for the taking as he needs a new home. Email impervium@aol.com for more details. All parts are custom cast in fiberglass and high impact urethane resin, cleaned, trimmed, detailed, painted, weathered. This all came together wonderfully. This will make an exclamation point in any sci fi replica collection. This is the FIRST EVER model of this type so bid bid bid and you're taking home a prized collectors piece. Signed by the artist. The dome is constructed hollow and utilizes clear windows for all the lenses and logic boxes, and front emitter. Transparencies line the logic sensors so this is ready to install an LED kit. I don't have any LED kits at the moment so the illuminated dome photos show what a simple interior light bulb will do on the dome. There are no electronics installed in this dome but if the bidding goes high enough I will personally install a deluxe LED light package into the dome. This is pretty large so shipping in the U.S. is going to run $85. Overseas shipping is estimated to be in the range of $145-200. If you're an overseas bidder please email first for a quote. Good luck!!!! p.s. I found a new weathering technique that allows for modification on this appearance. You can scrub away the dark weathering easily with minimal staining and re-apply. I'll provide instructions to the winning bidder.
