I have a pedal powered generator which could drive an electric pencil sharpener.  Hop on the saddle, start pedalling and when the abrasive disk gets up to speed press the switch that will advance the rotating pencil against it,   hmmmm...... certainly possibilities!!!

I feel that when you are decorating a garage/lounge area that has a shop theme, the art should do something. The viewer, who becomes a participant, is involved in the art.

Not all of us know that "old rugby song The Engineer", do ya think ya might share the lyrics with a colonial?   :lol: jack

andyf:
It's far too rude to be repeated on here, Jack. Just google the engineer told me before he died. Like most songs passed down by word of mouth in conditions of inebriation there are various slightly different versions, and when I was young, two different tunes.
