I agree, Brad. It looks like something which may have been a "final project" done by a student in a metal working or welding class in a vocational school, or perhaps as a project entered into a fair for judging toward a prize, perhaps for 4H. I know they do more than just agriculture having been a club advisor myself. However it came to be, it shows a lot of time, effort, skill, and planning. I think it is VERY cool !
