I think this stuff is wonderful because it's all energetic. Any one of these pieces looks like it will start moving any second. He's somehow gotten the toned musculature of live animals perfectly correct.

There are many other examples at:

While xoxoxoBruce is away the squirrels will play.

Those are brilliant, unfortunately I was looking for a valve cover for an '86 Mazda and this guy took the last one.

He should display that spark-plug sheep on the side of a dam.

I do like.

And you know how picky I am.

Steampunk animals are not nearly as tasty as real ones.

I've been thinking for a while on this - Still cannot come up with any recipe for them.

Gonna need a serious marinade.

Monsieur Mangetout might disagree.

No no no, IOtD is open to any member. Just follow the format (mon/day/yr/title), and don't reuse a date that's already been posted.

LOTS of fiber though...

I have a spare '86 Mazda valve cover. Make me an offer.

Michel (Monsieur Mangetout) died of natural causes on June 25, 2007. He is buried at Grenoble Cemetery. But was ressurected when large horseshoe magnet was dangled over his grave in 2008.

And high in IRON.

Uh ohhhhh....

So welcome to the cellar ARR.
