My essence being siphoned off maybe. All I know is I am not a superstitious person but this spooked me. That's me being sucked into black plastic in the background. This former door stop is part of a bike bell project. I'll get over it. Marie Laveau you there?
She: "What is it?". He: "It's a broken light bulb filled with magnetic plastic marbles on a brass stand with chicken feet".
She: "But what's it for".
He: "It's not for anything".
She: "Why did you make it"?
He: "For you to look at and ask questions and it worked".
"What is this?" she said. I said "Right now it's a Archimedes Screw but it can be any number of things." When SHE ask if she could touch it I said of course it's for you. An hour later it had been converted into a multitude of shapes I had not thought of. Now it has been touched by her hands and is sacred. In reality it is a bunch of sticks with a rod through the middle that has now been enchanted.

Spooky apparition, unusal craft and a blessing from SWMBO...enjoying the post.
Richard,
Reusing the door stop as a striker for a bicycle bell is an awesome idea. I am NOT going to say, "Now, why didn't I think of that?". I simply did not.
Peace :)
Cool Stuff!! And I have/or had, one of the wind action figures shown in the last picture. It came to live here from the in-laws house when the wife cleaned it out. Hung on my back porch and twirled in the wind until one stormy day the wire supporting it parted and it fell and broke several of the pieces off.
I got to say that when I look at your blog I get a little jealous. You sir are a tinkerer. A man with an eye for art. I myself build stuff and make stuff, but mine is in no way art such as yours.
