My Brother Jeff..

My Brother Jeff.. is almost 9 years younger than me. I'm the eldest of three boys born between 1960 and 1968. Jeff is a Stone-Mason by trade. At 47 years-old.. he still does the work. Fieldstone is his specialty.

He "finds" things for me. Things that he knows I'm interested in. (that kind of brother..) Last year he found a stand-off scale Top-Flite RC Corsair kit (.60 engine size) less engine-cowling on the cheap..

Remember these photos?





More recently.. he gave me three brass pedals..

I decided to temporarily hang them from an open-space on a pegboard in my shop.




They're from an old upright-piano that he was charged with the task of disposing of.. (he broke it up with a sledge-hammer..

I was going to "frame" the three pedals.. but I kinda' like them where I hung them tonight. They'll stay there for now.
