Was down at the local dog park this morning so the little guy could have a squirt and spotted a pair of racoons heading across the river. Made me think of your Penguin Project, Rob, and I got curious about any new developments.

It is -30 outside right now, so no new developments. It will sit for a year or three while I gather information and leads.
As an aside, I have bought a bunch of sheds from the base here, including a 40X100 foot shed with 21 foot ceiling. I only work on days that are warmer than -15, and that has not been a while lot of days, let me assure you. Once re-assembled here either this summer or next, it should provide indoor storage for all my toys. Last edited by rob love; 30-12-13 at 21:21. |

Turn it on its side and you wouuld have a 100x100 shed with 40' ceiling - much better use of space.

Now edited to read 21 foot ceilings. Still high enough to make you respect the scaffolding while un-doing roof panels.

In one of the old Convoy magazines, there was a couple pages on the Penguin, including photos etc of one sitting in a field up for auction (several years ago)...maybe that was the one you now have Rob?

Mine came from Sean from Alberta (snowtractor in this site) who got it from BC. I don't know anything about the one in the convoy magazines.

might be the same.....it was from out west ..maybe someone could check the Convoy back issues ? and if its not the same one...I wonder what became of that one? hate to think such a rare beast might be gone for good.
