Many years ago I started what became an ongoing project, made a porch and began wrapping it around the house, roof first. Anyway I have lots of wine bottles and decided to use them. When I get bored or antsy to do something, I can always evolve the porch.

LOL. The dog got into a trash bag that wasn't dumped yet, same for that black meat package that he licked clean
So what's the story with the green and black hoses running into/out of the porch?

I think old Malt just inadvertently showed us his gas chamber for the enemy combatants.

That looks awesome, man.
Does the tang go all the way to that second screw? That would give it enough tenacity to make it combat ready.
So what’s that yellow stuff oozing out from between the wine bottles? Do they have slime molds where you live?

The water bib is now inside the former porch, they are still water hoses and drip hoses(controller inside)
Yeah tang goes past the 2nd screw, indeed it is combat ready. The yellow shit is that urethane spray foam insulation/sealer. Seals the spaces between the bottles; UV kills it so in about another year I can brush of the excess with a broom and spray some exterior clear varathane on itThat looks awesome, man.

Okay, here’s a restoration project of my own. It’s an antique Japanese wakizashi, forged in the late 1500’s. The blade came in all wood shira-saya mountings, and was undoubtedly a war souvenir from World War Two. Many such old blades were confiscated by American troops during the occupation of Japan and wound up back here in the states.
Here is the signature on the blade. The signature is gimei, attributed to Kanemitsu (although the sword can’t actually be made by him, since wakizashi of this type weren’t being forged until the late 1500’s.) The age of the tang and gimei signature are established by the rust in evidence and the style of forging. This is a Bizen school sword from the end of the Warring Period.
I removed the blade from a modern wakizashi of high quality, and adapated those fittings to match my old sword. The old tang was thicker than the new sword, so it was easy to remove material from the mountings for a proper fit.
I also repainted the fittings and scabbard, and made a leather battle cover to fit the modern Japanese sword style.
The handle I re-tied myself. The Navy collar device used for a menuki reflects my service in the Navy reserves.

I'm pretty sure when I clicked on this thread it says pictures of yourself.
If you are really into crossing swords thats cool. How about starting a new thread just for your own enjoyment. Thanks.

You posted your pic already and I felt violated just looking at it. Serious creepo vibes.
