Always eager to see the new one when I see you have posted again. As always, very cool and imaginative.

As long as the tools don't come out of my toolbox you are ofcourse free to do whatever you want with them. I love the little critter you made, just love tools too.

Re: Feelin crabby


I traded my pop a new pair of diagonal cutting pliers for any old, beat up, hand tools he didn't use any more.
I got some useful pieces now for future art-work.
