I have (and have had) many interests over the years. Building flintlocks, gun engraving, hot rods (currently ford model A’s, both stock and rodded as well as currently building a “restomod” 1959 Mack B-61 (to pull my holiday trailer). So much so that it becomes overwhelming at times. A B61 Mack! Wow! I almost bought one to use on the farm once, but the triplex transmission turned me off. I once saw a restored black B61 on I-20 and it was one of the best looking rigs I've ever seen. We need to see pics of yours! Still under construction.

Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

Stephen, the pottery is beautiful as well as the holsters and pistols. Thanks David~ I've been lucky to visit some of the Pueblos where the pottery was created. My favorite are Acoma "Sky City" with the black & white and Zia with the Roadrunner. I've had a facination with 1950's and earlier manufacturing and the development of the revolver. I did leather work as a hobby and now appreciate craft nicer than my own abilities. My office is something of a museum of the handmade. I made everything in this photo~and published a book of patterns (Tandy Leather Co) for the leatherwork. ![[Linked Image from imagizer.imageshack.com]](https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1024x768q70/924/t2EI0N.jpg)

We have a matched pair, haven't seen them for a bit, but my wife likes to rotate them out now and then. Won an orchid society fund raiser auction for them in the nineties. Donated by a bitty, little grandmotherly type, said she remembered them being in the family from her childhood memories. Weird.

We have too much stuff. The Kokeshi collection is just one accumulation that got legs. The marbles came out of the dirt surrounding the vintage homes we’ve owned. That box is worth about 5k by pure accident and recent appraisal. We are giving stuff away to museums to lighten the end of life estate burden. Taxidermy, oil paintings, sporting art, sculpture, boats, vintage hand tools, it’s all going.
Out there doing it best I can.
