| About: | A community for fans of Doctor Evermor and his creations, for those who want to share stories, get inspired, or just want to gawk. Dr. Evermor (Tom Every) began building the more than 200-ton (now estimated at 400 tons - August, 2000) Forevertron in 1983 following his early retirement from the large-scale wrecking and salvage business. He remembers being depressed at the time and wanting to convert a destructive process into something constructive and uplifting. He has since developed an elaborate, park-like setting with numerous satellite pieces around the Forevertron which rises from the Sauk Prairie between Baraboo and Madison, Wisconsin and ranks as the world’s largest sculpture made from scrap metal. It's in the Guiness Book of World Records, but I can't seem to find it online. Let me know if you do. This community was created by and is maintained, (rather loosely), by 9ahau, who gets to hang around with Doc Evermor once in awhile and swap ideas and chat. Doc has dubbed her a historian and documentor, which she'll remain until he takes the time to teach her to weld. She wanted a place to further swap stories, catch people's questions, and generally see what the interest would be. Doc himself is a bit allergic to computers, and doesn't officially have much to do with this community. If you really want to ask him something, ask here, and I can probably track down the answer. | |
