these bowling balls are my take on the ones other people have done, half marbles glued on with clear silicone sealant, one ball was originally black and I didn't paint it and the other two were colored bowling balls, one blue and the other kind of red and gray swirled together, I put a green ruler by the blue one, the original black ball is with the red one, I used mostly clear stones on the red ball

sorry for so many pictures, couldn't help myself, I'm proud of my son's talent. I made some of the lamp shades.

look at my six foot cactus and the three foot dragon and the bug that's only a foot tall - all made by my talented son. The cactus is made from pipe, barbed wire and the pot is a brake drum from a semi truck. The dragon is made from all kinds of junk. The bug is made from railroad spikes and the body is the piece that holds the rails to the ties, head is made from a sickle mower guard. No trains were harmed in the construction of this sculpture.

  not a real skeleton of course but one made from metal junk. He sits atop my entertainment center and watches us as we watch tv. Made for me by my talented son.

 the garden guardian stands guard over the flowers in my garden, flowers are made of the fans out of cars, pipe for stems and the leaves are junk metal while the guardian is made from parts of a motor to screws and bolts

this lamp is made from a half gallon bottle of captain morgan, the threaded pipe goes through the lid all the way through the bottom of the bottle which sits on a base of an old lamp. The shade frame is made of clothesline wire and covered in fabric and trimmed in a gold trim.

I found some very old graphs for knitting and I don't knit. I want to give them to someone, I don't know how to scan and share with everyone so would someone like to have them, copyright is from 1952, 1957, 1958, you know little kids sweaters with bunnies, kittens , rocking horse, and there is a graph for mittens with squirrels, kittens,and ducks. I can't just throw these out. Help me, please.

wow. I've been fighting to get this picture on here and I don't even know how I did it. This is a lamp that my son and I made. He welded the frame of the hat and I covered it. Hope someone finds it interesting.

has anyone ever built one of these? I know there is a pipe up the center of the water and the pump pushes the water up and then it hits like a bell fountain and pours back down so you can't see the pipe. But is there like a tube in the center of that pipe to hold the faucet up there?
