What I always found so odd about these was the box raised above the floor under which the engine went and then the table sat atop the box.

This really is quite the transformation and just goes to show what can be done with a vision, hard work and time (oh and a little money thrown in for good measure)

What a fantastic job he's done, all with a family including a disabled son and having a heart attack along the way.  His previous project looked pretty good as well.
