Thrift Store Scores

@Inorganic my current running theory is that my band tee finds at goodwill are a result of people moving to portland to live out their hipster fantasies and then giving up and donating all of their merch on their way out of town back to their home states

@GraemeE bonsai planter? looks nice
-
@Inorganic indeed it is.
Either need to acquire a new tree for it or hold onto it for a few more years until one of the ones I currently have wired and planted in the ground is ready -
At a 50% off event, acquired an Orvis Big Bear flannel shirt, which is essentially a CPO, for the price of a cup of joe. Stateside folks should know of this storied brand.

A grail has landed. A Pfaff 545. This was on the production floor at Langlitz Leathers in Portland for 40 years….the lady who used to sew on it just retired and I learned that back in the day they’d give ‘stars’ to seamstresses who found errors before garments shipped. I feel like I picked up an important part of PDX history.

@goosehd RIGHT!!!!! I’m so stoked but beauty is gnarly. I gotta get a servo motor to slow it down, this fucker will see thru your fingers.
