all the looms at the residency are 4 harness looms with the exception of an 8 harness table loom that doesn't work, and because their weaving studio technician recently quit to move to another country they don't have anyone who knows how to fix it but luckily i do. and tbh a lot of stuff is in disrepair (i already had to repair one of the spinning wheels) which really makes me 👀 the former studio tech because the majority of your job as a weaving studio tech is maintaining the equipment and this level of disrepair would take years of neglect lol but whatever idk that story i'm trying not to judge. so i'm going to fix the 8 harness loom and clean up some of the equipment and repair a few other things while i'm at it cause god knows when someone else will

Yo who wants to buy a complete Russian submarine escape suit manufactured in 2012 with the under suit and repair kit I don't know why I disided to buy this but I've had it for about 2 years and I've disided I'm probably gonna sell it so I guess if you want it for whatever reason I'll give you the ebay link once I list it its also lined with kevlar and balconies rubber it doesn't come with the rebreather tho but to be fair that shit will get you killed but it does have a regulator adapter so if you wanna use it for diving you can it also has the weighted boots but I forgot to take a pick and I need to sell it to get money for night vision

If you became super rich and could design your own house, but could only add THREE unnecessary/random/expensive home additions (like how people will have bowling alleys, movie theatres, closets with museums of shoes, car display rooms, spa rooms, wine cellars, etc. in their mansions) - what three would you choose?
#I think I would have: an indoor pool (but like heavily customized with a faux weather system so I could get the feeling of swimming in#rain or fog or snow etc.). a very small arcade consisting only of skee-ball and DDR machines. and an old Library Room with authentic#historical furniture/interior design to store old books/tapestries/study room equipment/whatever other antiques I'd collect. It'd be#like some fully intricate movie set or something that would feel completely like stepping into another world/time.#Though I might would trade out the arcade for a roller skating rink.. i DO love skating....#And I wouldve put rock climbing gym because I love indoor rock climbing but.. as I understand it they have to change out the rock things#on the walls every once in a while so that you can have new routes and it doesnt get boring. and I'd rather have an activty room thats like#self sustaining and doesnt require me to hire some person to come switch things around once every month. Otherwise I would#totally do that instead.#I'm also personally not counting ''craft'' type stuff like having a pottery room kiln sort of thing because#that doesn't count as 'unnessecary' to me. since stuff like that would not at all be just a hobby I 'happen to#do sometimes for fun'#but would definitely be a career sort of thing. Like if I had the money for a fully stocked sculpture room and and a sewing room#with a good machine and etc. then I would literally be professionally selling pottery and designing clothing and etc.#so I wouldn't count it as 'just a random side room I dont need' etc.#The same way that if I played tennis professionally or as a very intense hobby that takes up most of my life/time#then I wouldn't count having a tennis court in your house to practice in as 'unncesscarry' etc.#wow that is the worst I have ever spelt that word ghbjh#Un Cess Carry#ALSO would obviously have an underground bunker of some sort with food and emergency supplies which also does not count as unnecessary to m#since it's literally like... survival.. And I thought most health organizations literally reccomend that even#the common person has a small 'go bag' prepared in their house. and like an evacuation plan in case of fire or other things#It WOULD be an unnecessary rich person thing to have a full on undergRound village or something stocked with 9000 guns and#whaetever. but I think just a basic emergency room with basic supplies could still be counted under the 'not unnecessary' requirement.#Like I would say that a sprawling courtyard of flower gardens and fountains and hedge mazes that takes up like a hundred thousand#dollars a year in maintenance would count as one of the three 'unnecessary and expensive' things. But having a small garden in the#back yard with a few planters in a little greenhouse or whatever would not. The 'excessiveness' of the thing matters lol#ANYWAY!!!#Just curious what other peoples Three Main things would be... hrrmm

Half the fun of photographing old farm equipment is figuring out what the bloody hell these diabolical contraptions actually DID ...

All finished with the restoration of my Triplett 1232-A signal generator. Tested it tonight, and it works OK on all frequency bands. It's always nice when you can bring a vintage piece of electronic gear back to life.

It was nice enough to get outside with my new painting without it getting rained on. I guess summer has begun. This is "The Crawler," my ninth piece for the Cedar Creek series.

Sunday morning foraging! Did someone say it was nutting season? 🌰 🌰 🧺 I foraged way more white walnuts than shown in the basket and yes that is wire from old farm equipment in my basket. I’ll be using it in what was meant to be my last project for @graveyarddirt / @msgraveyarddirt ‘s September #haggingout in the concoction currently bubbling away on the kitchen stove that hopefully will turn into walnut ink. But time got away from me last week so here I am finishing it up at the beginning of October.
