Not my shop…..I’m envious and had to share, and I think I just ejaculated.

Recent Acquisitions…

Wow!  Zoned in on some great artistic fodder for my recent imaginations of machines of an artistic albeit completely useless nature.  I especially love these little oil cans.  I am sure I will require these for the oiling of said useless machines in the future.

“the peeper” (it’s still just a working title)

'the peeper'

'the peeper'

“the peeper” began as a project to utilize a peephole from my old front door into an art project.  The original concept I had I have long since forgotten.  What this work represents is my delving into a new place with my art.  Not sure what that is either, but it is a different place. Combining my woodworking skill and tendencies towards sarcasm I figure something good will come out of all this. Or at least amusing.

I felt it was absolutely necessary that I used them both. So the box got larger and then mobile and legs were added and now we have what is seen here.

Of course now there are two viewing options for you to choose from.  It is best viewed with another.

What’s in the box you say? Ha well I can’t give it all way….the peephole makes you want to know doesn’t it?

You have to look?  hmmmm, well some things must just be experienced.
