Things found arbitrarily.

I found some pretty cool stuff in my basement, including a really classy antique copper steam pressure gauge from US gauge company, a sight glass, and various copper fittings while... err... examining the cable hookup ( I still don't have cable). Anyway, it's neat stuff and I can't wait to make something cool out of it. I also happened to find a really cool venetian mask in a TJ Max store. It was only 20 bucks and it will make a really cool art project, or I could leave it the way it is. It makes me think of something Professor Moriarty might wear in some unwritten Sherlock Holmes story.
