Thrift Store Scores

[Giles]

@ROman said in Thrift Store Scores:

@Giles I sort of remember his story about a Mrs. Shufflebottom who lived on the Isle of Wight. I was more intrigued by her name than the story, which was good.

Oh yes, I will have to ask him about that one.....

@steelworker Always known as Big Nickel.

[twin]

@steelworker Also look up (Sudbury Igneous Complex). That will explain why the nickel is there.

@Inorganic As a sheet metal tradesman, this is a badass lunchbox! Makes me want to make one for myself.

[Inorganic]

@Danimal506 build it and sales will come! (become the sheet metal tradesman of field of dreams)

i think (keep in mind i have 0 experience here) that if you walk into a sales meeting and slam a fucker like this down on the table only good can come from it

[Danimal506]

@Inorganic I’m not a sales guy. But maybe I could corner the market in handmade boutique lunchboxes? Learn how to engrave and really go to town

Currently on my ass with the flu - so my wife went out to do some shopping by proxy

70s/ 80s western jacket

[Inorganic]

@GraemeE fun find - did you end up grabbing it?

[GraemeE]

@Inorganic yeah I had her grab it for me

Im a sucker for cool buttons/snaps

Value village is a goldmine

[Inorganic]

@GraemeE sick snaps!!!

[GraemeE]

Another warm one to add to the arsenal

[Inorganic]

@GraemeE that’s a classic right there. Did you score it at that same spot?

[GraemeE]

@Inorganic indeed - VV ftw

[GraemeE]

Another one my wife found yesterday while I was out of comission

Not sure the wood type but if was somehow teek root it would be a mega score

Any wood experts care to advise on possible species?

[sabergirl]

It almost doesn’t matter! Gorgeous chair

[GraemeE]

@sabergirl agreed - we love live wood furniture in general

Unfortunately we are in the wrong tax bracket for nakashima...but can still dream and admire from afar

[sabergirl]

So many folks make live-edge wood furniture in that style, now. I’m sure you could find something beautiful in range.

[GraemeE]

We have a couple peices but need to wait until our littles are a little more grown and running into the edge of a table or chair at high speed is no longer a possibility

Not tech “thrift store” but picked up 2 brand new pair of Thursday boots at buffalo exchange today , both pairs for $100 total. Wifey got some sick Gucci ballet flats for hella cheap as well. Beautiful day in the city, Out and about with our friend, the store was calling our name.
