One of the first buildings you see when entering Sherbrooke Village is the Blacksmith Building.

 

The Blacksmith Shop has operated continuously since it was established in the 1870s by Joe McLane. The Blacksmith Shop was a busy but sociable place where farm implements, carts, plows, tools, chains and sled runners were made, and horses were shod. Today the blacksmith produces ironwork for the Village Restoration and for sale. Items can be purchased at The Company Store.

 

Sherbrooke Village depicts a typical Nova Scotian village from 1860 to pre-WW1. With approximately 80 buildings, over 25 of those open to the public, it is the largest Nova Scotia Museum site. Visit the woodturner shop, blacksmith, pottery shop, and printery. Built on an economy of ship building, lumbering and gold mining, Sherbrooke Village reflects Nova Scotia as it was during its industrial boom in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Visit a place where time has stood still... visit Sherbrooke Village!

I used my betel nut box from Thailand but any box would work. My box measures 8.5x9.5" , 8" high with the depth of the container part 2.25". I used several sizes of pharmacy bottles to create separate compartments. Now I can easily find the tool I want to use with the added benefit of being able to carry all the tools to different "clean" work spaces.

[i know the pieces fit cuz i watched them fall away

mildewed and smoldering. fundamental differing.

pure intention juxtaposed will set two lovers souls in motion

disintegrating as it goes testing our communication

the light that fueled our fire then has burned a hole between us so

we cannot see to reach an end crippling our communication.

i know the pieces fit cuz i watched them tumble down

no fault, none to blame it doesn't mean i don't desire to

point the finger, blame the other, watch the temple topple over.

to bring the pieces back together, rediscover communication

the poetry that comes from the squaring off between,

and the circling is worth it.

finding beauty in the dissonance.

there was a time that the pieces fit, but i watched them fall away.

mildewed and smoldering, strangled by our coveting

i've done the math enough to know the dangers of our second guessing

doomed to crumble unless we grow, and strengthen our communication.

cold silence has a tendency to atrophy any

sense of compassion

between supposed lovers/brothers]

[tool, schism 2001]

The 6/11/18 topic for Macro Mondays is Hand Tool, and while the small piece of this tool shown here is probably unrecognizable to most, it is a tool that I used a lot back in my woodworking days, 30 or more years ago. It is a 2¾ inch portion of a spoke shave (see the whole thing in the first comment). I could never stand a straight line and was always shaving off the edges in order to create more flowing, sculptured lines, and this spoke shave saw a lot of action. Unfortunately, after a few decades rattling around in the back of my tool drawer, it's looking pretty battered now, but in its time, it served me well.

 

The Creative Tabletop Photography theme is Gadgets

This tiny screwdriver is 1.75 inches long. I have put a camera memory card in the foreground to further illustrate the screwdriver's size. It is not a toy. It came with a battery powered digital refrigerator thermometer. I had bought 2 sets (two in each set) of these thermometers, each came packaged separately and each has this little screwdriver: so I have four of them! It's used to open the back to replace the button-like battery each thermometer has.

Old motorcar tools, if only they could talk about all the jobs they have been used on over the years. "Tools".. "Crazy Tuesday"..

Tools::

Frax

Nightcafe Studio

Photoshop

I was perusing an antique store/furniture refinishing place the other day. Fairly dark and stuffed to the brim with stuff. I wandered into the back and was faintly surprised to see a man working. Very friendly guy. We played the name game for a while...Richmond is like that. The light was good and I asked if I could take his picture. He was reluctant. I don't usually meet with reluctance but I really liked his face...a bit grizzled...unshaven with white stubbly hairs that glinted in the light from the glass door. So I pushed it a bit. He told me that I wouldn't be able to capture him but I could try. You know. He was right. I snapped and snapped and snapped and never could get the essence of his energy. An animated talker, the frames on my camera all froze his face in odd expressions. He said he was used to that.

Forty minutes later, I left with a couple of gifts (one old skate....I was thinking of Eve N. Less when he offered it to me...and a bag of coffee beans for my husband) and no portrait!

Lesson 4; took about 30 minutes

These tools are sparingly used. DIY is not really my forte, and I prefer to use my hard-earned income to pay a professional to do jobs properly. I don't even know what the thing on the right is (don't worry; I don't really want to know).
