One more thing...

Finally got into the garage today to start the tidy up and, of course, it's been put off for so long 'cause I gotta rebuild the whole thing. Not the garage but sort out the benches and work areas so I can actually work in there 'cause winters comin' and I'll need a dry space to hang out in the evenin's. But while I'm pulling down a no longer used storage space I discovered some old timey 'lectrik boxes and realised, once the picture dropped into my head, what the final thing is I'm going to make for the Steampunk show is goin' to be.

I been thinkin' bout a coffee table of sorts for a centrepiece down low (gotta form the whole... what's Kevin say?, the vignette? but anyways the whole setupo has to be a composition that works to highlight everything.) but none of the stuff I've got has perked up with, use me, use me (well some have but I've said no nicely) until yesterday I picked up a huge lump of wood, round and about 1mtr across and about 60mm thick, from out front of a charming wee domicile in Remmer's then as soon as I see these 'lectric boxes the vision comes in.

Got lotsa cool old table legs which can be cut down to get the low stance wreck wired then I'll inset a bunch of these boxes and maybe even wire in some lights under glass portholes... rememberin' the show a few years back when me and Felix did some interesting light's for the blacked out show at Pierre's.
See, this is how Art works... not fancy shit to let everyone know you're flash, but down and dirty crap that been serving as furniture during ratty celebrations of fine dinin'... combined with flash Git's old buggersome castoff's.

Love your Dirt and it'll love you back!
