Thank you, kind sir. Like you, I enjoy collecting and using the original items (and hope to have an antique traditional heavy block spinner soon), but I'm really all about functionality and practicality. I think this particular item will make a very functional spinner, and will still have that... -

Vintage Shot Glasses
My best guess as to era is 20's to 30's based on the motif & coloring pattern. It's got a jazzy & Art Deco sensibility.- John Galt

Vintage Shot Glasses
Very collectible jazz glasses, but the images remind one of blackface movies and might perhaps be seen as offensive. At any rate they are a glimpse into history. Is there a maker's mark on the bottom? "Faint hat never won fair lady"- John Galt

What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?
Today I wore two black western hats destined for sale. A 3X Stetson Open Road and a 6X Dunlap Western. Just don't wear 'em much. I'm asking $300.00 each, based on rarity as to the black OR, and rarity & super sweetness as to the Dunlap. (Very nice felt on that 4 inch brim gents!). Open... -

Brilliant, using cork as a gasket/gripper! Wish I 'd thought of that. I noted the clothespins and like that too. That really saves on trying to recreate 20+ items by hand that are exactly the same. I really like how you think outside of the box on this stuff. We should definitely chat... -

For Sale: Rare 7X Black Dunlap Supreme Western sz. 7 1/8
This vintage 6x (oops!) Dunlap Supreme hat has a fantastic hand - better than my 100% beaver westerns - and is one of only two Dunlap branded westerns I've ever seen. It also has a crease that is very unique, and which I wish I had the skill to recreate. It was creased in two steps, which...- John Galt

Vintage Shot Glasses
i have a ton of old shot glasses that I bought before I really understood the market or realized what is really unique. For example, I have some "bulls eye" shot glasses that are 100+ years old, but that no one wants to pay more for than a brand new shot glass is worth. These heavy glass shots...- John Galt

Vintage Shot Glasses
I used to have a shot in every glass, but it was not feasible as my collection grew. I do use them from time to time, but I am more of a mixed drink guy than a shot guy. I'd like to start a bar someday where I could display the collection, but that's not likely to happen. I'm frankly glad...- John Galt

Doesn't look substantially different from my cardboard one, but sounds like it had better results. Can you post more photos? -

Thanks Hatter4. I was wondering if it was for creating a recess for the reed to rest in after it is flared. I'm not getting the reeds to set down as nice as I would like, although they flare ok. Any tips are appreciated. I'm thinking about making a sandbag. Maybe I should have bought that...
