Not Harvey Littleton
But he was in that first studio of Littleton's in the early 60s. Tom McGlauchlin.

I absolutely
know his work. He was a very important person in the studio glass movement. My condolences on his passing.

Thank you, glassartist.
He was a wonderful uncle, too.

Its unfortunate
that my favorite possession still sits in my storage unit.....My pair of vintage ESU's I have too much stuff in my apartment and will hopefully sometime soon incorporate them.

That is unfortunate.
Thankfully, it is something I am able to help you with. You clearly have twice as much ESU as anyone could possibly have room for. I can relive you of 50% of your burden.
Just let me know when I should come pay you and get one of those out of your way.

And of course
Since these are obviously second string for you, and Pegboard only wants one, I will volunteer to relieve you of the other. If this is what gets mothballed in your collection, I wanna see your place!

Damn, jdip! Those units are on my ultimate wishlist and here you have them sitting in storage? You must have a pretty sweet collection.

One for Heath and SDR.
My Miller's Falls smooth plane ca. 1950.
The ones in the pic are not mine. I have the smaller one, but not in as nice condition. $15 flea-market find back in the eighties.

A black 1952 DCW
Battered to hell, drilled twice, that my dad pulled out of the dump twenty years ago. It reminds me of him, and was my first trip down the rabbit hole of modernism.

nice, I have a couple of old bailey planes from Dad that to be honest I treat terribly but they have that extra something, they didn't come from a 'shopping basket' in an anonymous warehouse.
My old lathe, does the job, manual speed change, nothing fancy but I love it.
