I'm sat here in the design office very busy, with only Red Square and the odd decal order as a distraction. :D

 

Well, I have a myriad of cool things here to design and make things with and I noted my sons Lawn Ranger had a missing hub cap.

Yes, but more time than I had. Simple shapes relatively easy, horses heads somewhat more complex!

I got my son solidworks for his laptop.  They have it at college for his engineering studies....  I have it on this laptop too.  He runs it like it is child's play.  I have not got past the tutorial for the pump part....lol  Looks like it is not a problem for you!!!
