The scroll, obviously a medical text is displayed at an Asian antique store in Great Barrington, Massachusetts. It is about 200 years old.

Mortar Board Hats and Scrolls

I bought this scroll in Xi'an China. It's 9' long and would not display well without framing. I made the frame from red oak and trimmed it with walnut. It has 5 (17" apart) dovetailed braces that run top to bottom to prevent sagging. Working with pieces this large is a challenge!

Can anyone help shed some light on this?.....

Recently given to me by my mother, it was apparently made by my step-father’s father, about the time of the Second World War. Allegedly, it was made from a munition, but I can’t see any indication of that, other than the two cases could possibly be said to be similar to canon rounds (but the wrong material I suspect).

It’s believed he worked for George Kent Ltd (www.gracesguide.co.uk/George_Kent) of Luton, Bedfordshire, so it could be a work piece such that an apprentice might make.

It seems to me to be a small carpentry / wood working set, that includes a flat bladed screwdriver, an auger, centre punch , router or scraper (sharp!) and small ruler (6cm one side 2 1/2 inches on the other) .

The handle, screwed together, is just over 8cm in length.

As shown in the images, all the pieces, except the ruler, fit into the slot in one of the handle halves, which when screwed in to the other half, form a solid tool.

One half of the handle has what appears to be ‘OSHBA’ inscribed within a scroll, whilst the other has the letters ‘D.R.G.M’, which couldn’t be his initials as they ended in an A.

If anyone has any ideas, suggestions or comments, they would be most welcome.

Thanks,

Kev.

Milo is the most recently appointed Partner in Law firm Windsor & Maverick. Hot shot Milo impressed Senior Partner and law firm founder Callum Windsor with his razor sharp intelligence, prodigious ability to digest copious amounts of complex text and his charismatic courtroom style. When Milo was headhunted by a rival firm, Callum offered him a partnership role and an enticing Golden Handshake (enough to make Milo turn down the rival offer) Sergio is new to the firm, just arrived. His fashionable yet quirky style (city pinstripes with mountain hiking/ski boots) and personable charm has made him the office darling. But what the office doesn't know (yet) is that Milo and Sergio are in a long term relationship which started in law school... will they keep it a secret or let everyone know?

Yes, yes... It's the Pritchard House again. We went up to Titusville today and took some shots of the house. I'm pretty optimistic it will weather the approaching tropical storm Ernesto well... it's weathered the other storms for the past 115 years, why not this one? Yes, the cupola might fall to the ground, but I don't think the house itself will suffer much damage.

Let's cross our fingers.

I've been playing with photoshop and textures.. I took a picture of the sparkly snow and combined it with this old scroll texture..

A friend of mine runs a shop, and has been experiencing some of the ups and downs of the current economy. We tried doing some magical work to keep her shop running a while ago, using the energies of Jupiter — bringer of generosity. The earlier work was some Jupiter sigils attached to a fountain; that worked surprisingly well. But, then the fountain broke; the parts to the fountain have been sitting in a back room of her shop for a while.

So, last Thursday I started this scroll of the Orphic Hymn to Jupiter. I finished it last night, and gave it to her this morning — charged with Jovian, Solar and Lunar energies. For my first major piece of "calligraphy" (with a Sharpie pen!), I think it turned out rather well. Jupiter's face is a little off-balance and crazy, but on the whole it turned out pretty well.

I didn't use the traditional "medieval" page-layout that I've been experimenting with for this particular page, but there is an underlying geometry behind it, particularly on the illumination in the lower-right. All in all, it obeys Henry Cornelius Agrippa's model of the three-fold virtues.

Scroll and Key is a fraternity or "secret society" formed at Yale College about 1842. Alumni from the fraternity incorporated as the Kingsley Trust Association in 1860 and hired Richard Morris Hunt , to design this building. The Spanish Moorish cube of marble was described as " advertising mystery and inviting speculation". It was completed in 1870 at a cost of $50,000.

I used scroll saw to make this scalloped-edge bowl. I still haven't decided what kind of finishing I want to apply.

This is the scroll that was presented for my Award of Arms. The shield is where my Arms will go, once I get them approved.

Thank you for taking a look.
