Leighton has really been getting into scootering, and in between the trips to the skate park, he wanted a grind bar to practice some tricks in the front yard. We talked about it, planned it out, and then made one on Saturday morning with some steel I had in the garage. He labeled my sketch appropriately when I wasn't looking.
