Double Feature

An AJS and a BSA in the sunset. Nice!

from Colorod 4, 1977



I do not watermark my scans because I think it´s ugly and the pictures aren´t really mine to start with, I just scan them from old mags and publish them. So, feel free to steal and reblog my scans, but please do not put your own watermarks on them, and please remember to tell them where you found them! Thanks!

Swedish BSA Thunderbolt

Ok, at last: here´s another one from the Swedish mag Colorod. This time from issue 9, 1978. It´s a nice 1969 BSA Thunderbolt. Klick the pic for bigger!

back at the dump

after an intermission making a public commision at a customs station (see post below), I´m now officially back working at the dump :-)

Here are some of the latest finds:

a cardboard box full of Mechanics Illustrated from the 50s (Yes!)

a morse key

an educational box of teeth, real and artificial (find of the day!)

a pistol (looks kind of real, but is rather for decorative purposes)

a blood centrifuge (in working condition!)...

a really cool old spotlight cover

a Braille typewriter (I have no blind friends, but if I had I could now write letters to them...)

an unopened kitchy bottle of Barcelona made Brandy

a nice fur hat (will come in handy when the winter comes)

a comical little handmade hanger with a loose head

a very nice Italian vase (I love orange)

sleeping with the enemy

been busy doing a public commision at a customs station on the border between Norway (where I live) and Sweden (where I come from). I´m quite pleased with the result.

Hush!

Good Stuff

Swedish wormwood spirit, it´s bitter and really good. I´m going to make my own this fall.

Wormwood (Artemisia Absinthium) is the same herb that´s the main ingredient in Absinthe

some stupid idiot...

... broke in to my studio the other day.


Stolen: two knives, a pin gun, a baseball bat, a hammer, a competition sling shot and a level

Not stolen: a Marshall amp, a german WWII helmet, a nice jacket with kevlar in it, some masonic memorabilia, an art deco lamp, a trombone, a distillation apparatus and my collection of live herbs (no; nothing illegal there) and lots and lots more good stuff.

Sometimes, in spite of everything, you are just plain lucky...

The only thing that really irritates me is that they stole the saw-fish-saw that I found at work the other day, I liked that strange object

Custom Bike Show, Norrtälje, Sweden 2011

I managed to get there after all. Here is a bunch of my personal favourites at this years show. It´s still the best! There were of course loads more, I´ll come back with more pictures later.
