Trip to Pittsburgh, PA for Inventory
Once again we were packed up and off to gather exciting new "old" inventory for all of you. This is one of the greatest and most exciting benefits we have in this business. As you can see in the photo, we packed that truck and trailer to the limit and maybe even beyond. There are doors, newel posts, unbelievable mantels, ornately detailed cast iron fireplace grates, and many miscellaneous items stuffed into any crack or crevice we could find. We literally looked and felt like the Clampett's on tour. And did we get looks and stares from many people! We were certainly noticed!

Steampunk Art
~futuristic rifle~
This year we had the pleasure of meeting Ben Dixon....he was search ing for parts to build a "futuristic" rifle from old house parts for a Steampunk Art Show. Steampunk Art is part science fiction and fantasy and what-ifs, and is open to all media. To view some extremely creative art and ideas, search "steampunk" on the web. You will be amazed and possibly inspired to create your own design! Also look for Old House Parts at the Steampunk Trade show in Philadelphia this March. |
