This morning I got up early and decided to head down to the big craft sale at the University of Alberta. It was a good thing I went because I found some cool creatures made from old tools. They were created by a farmer from Craik, Saskatchewan named Jim Nodge. He joked that when he quits farming he's not going to have an auction to sell of his equipment he is just going to cut up his old machinery and make these sculptures.

I bought the wrench pen holder, check it out:

Fun

You've got to tell glenn about this one man! It is awesome. what is with farmers?..they are so creative! They can take almost anything on their farms and make something very original. Glenn does the same kind of thing except with wood and burlap! Amazing.

What makes that possible, is the loose coupling of those old tools, so can be reused with any future development
I like how he did use the wrench design pattern, to hold the pen
