Comments:	Tinkertown Museum is a folk art museum created over 40 years ago by the late Ross Ward (1940-2002). A four-room summer cabin has been transformed into a 22-room legacy showcasing the genius of one man's life work. The construction utilizes over 50,000 glass bottles & other available recycled materials to display 1880's animated miniature western town, circus, saddle show & much more. <p> Tinkertown is open daily from April 1 to November 1 & is located on the Turquoise Trail on the road to Sandia Crest. <p> Had to pay admission to get in. The machine is really old and doesn't work that well.

Had to pay admission to get in. The machine is really old and doesn't work that well. The images are hard to see, so I recommend using a really shiny copper penny.
