Unfortunately, I'm not a big picture taker and most of the photos are our cars and trucks in this album. There is some of my hypertufa pieces, metal embossing. I'll grab more photos from PhotoBucket and from my old laptop. Will you be able to scroll through all the photos?  lift in back garage by enamelsoul, on Flickr |

:-/You could just post a link if that is easier. Do you mean you made the lift? Or something on the cars? I don't know what hypertufa means.

I think hypertufa is a sort of reconstituted stone  Perhaps that's what is on the shelves at the back? |

Sorry, I thought you'd be able to scroll through the whole album if I posted one pic. Hypertufa is suppose to mimic the stone tufa. I did make the lift for that small corvette though it's just store bought angle iron. Those shelves hold awards and trophies.

Thanks, Ann. I'm a car gal. Two are mine, a 1971 gray/green convertible big block and a 2008 convertible, all black. I'll be getting the newest generation corvette the end of this summer.
Karen, What's it mean to "friend on flickr"? The guys in the car clubs we belong to always want me to talk to their wives about additions to their garages. I stay out of those discussions. LOL From the time I could walk I've been following my father, grandfather and great grandfather when they did chores. I'm a tomboy. I love getting tools for gifts.
Tell your husband our garage has been on "garage tours". They're like a open house tour but it's garages. People are amazed how clean are garage is. I love little surprises and I knew some of the guys would drag their wives along. They didn't want to be there until I told them there would be a jewelry making demo and they'd get free earrings. It's a pain when you "have" to go somewhere and you really don't want to be there.

Billieanne adding friends is a great way of keeping in contact with people if you like their work or are friends, you don't talk to them but when they upload pics, if their in your contact ( friends) list, then you'll be able to see what they've been working on You should get a notification of me adding you to mine and its up to you if you want to then add me to yours lol Everytime you go into your flickr and go over to the right had side ( I really don't like the new look flickr) but if you click on the tab with the little dots and drop down menu will show, once you have any contacts in your list you can then go to ( recent activity) and it will show what your friends are up to Or up the top left to your contacts lists !! hope that made sense Your garage is spotlessly clean, something my hubby wouldn't be able to keep like that in a pink fit lol |

I agree, the new Flickr is awful. Perhaps it's an age thing, but I can't find my way around it anymore! |

I tried to add you too, but got an 'uh oh' error message. I can't stand flickr now, I barely go on it. I can't see the photos unless I sit 5 feet further back from the computer. I love old cars though And tools. |

I don't like the new flicker either it's to big and in your face it flickers(makes sense I suppose) and reloads for every picture. I liked being able to see reasonable size thumbnails. I don't even know how to get to the sites page. I will see if I can find what you were talking about Zed.

Karen, I didn't receive a notification that you'd added me but I did find you under "recent activity". I added you to my contacts and friend list.
Zed, I added you to contact list too. Our oldest cars aren't that old. The oldest is a 1960 fuel injected Corvette Roadster.
Since I hardly ever use Flickr or PhotoBucket I don't notice changes. I'm not seeing what the rest of you are seeing. When I look at Zed's Flickr and click on "photostream" I see 3 or 4 large thumbnails across the screen and can scroll down to see all the rows of thumbnails. If I click on an individual photo I get a new window with just that photo centered in the screen. If I click on "sets" I can see large thumbnails of all the albums that Zed has made. I'm wondering if it has to due with how new your computer as to what you see on Flickr. I have an older desktop computer in our computer room and I'll take a look to see if I'm viewing differently.
I'm off to get ready for a "bead show" today. I'm going with a couple of classmates. I need to replenish my seed bead stash and to see if the spot price for silver is showing up in lower prices at the show. In the US, sterling silver is below $20 an ounce.

Zed, I see what you mean about Flickr.
I have had classes/training in silver clay. I didn't care for it so I gave everything away.

Is it worth giving a go for a one off pendant or couple of rings?

Perhaps that's what is on the shelves at the back?
