only just slightly on topic: just messing around silly "project" today
i was messing around today with a possible new "please don't litter" tire
"sculpture" (as posted in a previous thread). i found this reflector in a dumpster, and the glass thing too. my idea was some kind of "robot" tire "sculpture". i thought it would be funny to put my mother's cat and then one of her ducks in it and take a picture, it kind of reminds me of some sort of 1950's science fiction spaceship. http://www.frontiernet.net/~wwixon/kosmonautduckie.jpg http://www.frontiernet.net/~wwixon/kosmonautkitty.jpg (no animals were harmed in the taking of these photos.) (they both were in there for only a few seconds.) (metal content, used a plasma cutter to enlarge the hole in the top of the reflector.) b.w. |

The second picture is the inspiration.
Fabricate a cat litter box to go beneath the reflector. Cut a door into the side of the reflector and add a charcoal filter to keep down the smell. While it would not be a "don't litter" sculpture, it would however be an appropriate place to have some litter. :) -- Roger Shoaf About the time I had mastered getting the toothpaste back in the tube, then they come up with this striped stuff.
