I may have found an/the answer. Following up on my previous post I did some research. Searching: The^EM^Constitution^EMGun Deck, I quote the...
This bucket has really been bugging me. Is it possible that it was used on shipboard as a sand bucket. A semi-permanent fixture that would be used...
If you're fixated on the shelves.....cut or have cut, a couple of simple, narrow, rectangular glass shelves. Would probably be wide enough for...
This is why professional loggers are wary and don't like to cut yard trees. Nails, wire, bolts, and now, oh my, Sprockets........Very dangerous!
Looks like a very nice pocket watch chain with a nice length. Could easily be used as necklace putting the clasp in front with a low gold content...

Should be spring loaded to remain in the closed mode once the handle is released. One sided open such as used on a hatch or compartment door that...
This is a nice vase/container which I've had for several years. My wife is insisting that we downsize so I'm finally seeking info on it. It is 6"...
