In an old wooden tool box I bought today I found a 37mm projectile I believe it is from a Hotchkiss gun.  :o

Here it is a little cleaned up.

Stuff like this can cause a bit of a stir if the wrong people find it and call the authorities,  my brother had the bomb squad show up at his house once when some busybody saw a couple of those dummybombs like I posted in things in his back yard

A racing harness, some sockets, and a few hand tools in a curbside treasure pile

I found some icky mushrooms growing underground, that have gelatinous interiors surrounding some sort of 'white', amorphous body.

Hey, is someone missing an I2 member?
A good monarch is a treasure. A good politician is an oxymoron.

I have found nothing for the past few weeks. :GA:

Former neighbor is scrapping with his buddy again, and hitting it hard.

I'll have to change my times around until fall, when they go on vacation. 

They scrap all summer and then go to Amsterdam for a couple of weeks with the money they make. I should probably donate something to the fund.

 It's a worthy cause. :fly:  :bounce:

The kitchen sink. :zoinks:



Funny thing is it's an off-white color that matches the color I picked out to paint the cabinets with.  :zombiefuck: The trash gods must have seen me looking at my 30+ yr old scratched up stainless one the other day while washing dishes. :LOL:

Heavy SOB though...had to get help loading.

That's a nice sink,  I want a cast Iron one when we redo our kitchen :thumbup:

I found a little man that was trapped in a wall.  It's off a toy tractor I think.

He must feel so relieved, now you liberated him from that wall.

I'd love to see him on a bookshelf, with a view on the world outside through a window.

I love finding stuff from old toys...and marbles.

Always makes me wonder how old that "kid" is now or whether they're still alive.
