Congrats to David Miller, Steve Lucas and Ariejan Bos for identifying Harry Grant.
Kudos to the amazing Ariejan Bos for recognizing the chain-driven Alco. Was it a modified Black Beast as suggested by Ariejan?
Enjoy,
Howard Kroplick

I Jamiroquai tornano in Italia con una nuova data il 20 novembre al Mediolanum Forum di Milano.
In attività dal 1991, hanno raggiunto la fama internazionale nel 1994 con "The return of the space Cowboy" ma è stato "Travelling Without Moving" (1996) l'album da cui furono estratte le hit "Virtual Insanity", "Cosmic Girl" e "Allright" a consacrarli definitivamente, facendoli uscire dai confini europei.
I Jamiroquai sono considerati come la band inglese più influente degli ultimi 25 anni. I loro dischi (ne hanno pubblicati sette finora) sono sempre entrati nella top 10 della classifica inglese (tre album hanno anche raggiunto la vetta).
Hanno venduto complessivamente 26 milioni di dischi nel mondo e sono entrati a far parte del Guinnes Book of World Records per l’album funk più venduto di sempre.

Sometimes Mia is the goofiest cat....she just hung out on this box for awhile. Since she always likes to stretch her back legs out, I figure this is just her modified frog leg pose.
My modified Nutkin socks in DIC Smooshy in the Gothic Rose colorway. I flipped the pattern to prevent biasing, changed the heel and toe, and added some extra stitches.
A moded nissan 350z, it was going to be pearl white, but gray will do, added black highlighting, new rims, and custom front grill with lowered body. As always if you would like one, just send a message for a request.

Now, I was playing around with a few filters wondering if there were some way I could attach them to the front of the snoot. I tried putting them inside, but thet wouldn't even wedge into place.
One of my filters is a Nikor 62 mm Orange filter and while looking at the thread, which had a steping ring on it, it just kinda slipped into place.
Most of the time, mods are born out of some need to find a solution, this time however, serendipity seemd to be having a bit of a laugh.
I took the 58mm to 62mm stepping ring off the filter and place the 62 mm end against the snoot - bravo it more or less screw mounted itself onto the end, a firm neat finish that will mount whatever 58 mm diametre filter you like.
Fantastic!
