This sinuous animal formed the handle of a lid to a vessel, perhaps a situla (pail) or cista (cylindrical container). The head is that of a panther, while the curve of the body has become so pronounced that it resembles a weasel. The Etruscan love of animals inspired their craftsmen to adorn many simple household objects with decorative animal imagery.

Walters Art Museum, 1931, by bequest.
This was originally a reject, but I ended up a bit short of 50 photos, so I went back and edited this one with a crop, desat and levels adjustment, I actuallky really like it.
This photo is part of my day50mm set, where I took 50 photos with my 50mm on the 50th day of the year.q
I like sliding my hand through the handle on a traditional coffee mug, rather than gripping it. I sewed on a piece of scrap fabric creating a "handle" of sorts.
Assembled ballcrank handle.
Distance between centers of 18mm: doesn't interfere with compound slide as much.
Cross-drill small holes first when they're still easy to center, then turn the crank handle, then go back and drill them out to what you need. The reverse is unpleasant.
I chose this photograph because I appreciate the texture of the record player case and handle. This image was taken at birds eye view, and has shallow depth of field. I dropped saturation completely and adjusted with curves, brightness and contrast. I also used the crop tool to get rid of a distracting background.
BBQ handle shot from the ground...yes, I got under the grill before the fire was started.
