Cooking two butts till 6 or 7 am. Regulating fire is tricky do to wind. Mc layin down now. Mo sleep last nite
It’s been a crazy week. a crazier month and a motherfuckin’ crazy year. We are on the path to what we have been talking about and thinking about for some time now. The motions are in motion. I for one feel good about ‘thinkin’ in general and looking into the following day, month and motherfuckin’ year.
I love you baby
Thanks Skull a Day for recognizing my project. I’ve been looking everyday.
I love making these cheesy Rock and Roll boxes. I have all three lined up in the shed now. Here are some shots of them together. I forgot that I had not finished the bottom of the first toolbox (far right) but I did finish the bottom of the little box. Also I can’t find the little ‘little’ box that goes inside the first box. It’s around here somewhere. I will finish the bottom of the box this weekend.
The Boxes /
Middle Box / “The Coffin Box”
Right Box / “The Rock and Roll Box”
Left Box / “The Skull Box”
The “Coffin Box” is finished with skulls, anarchy symbols and a white vinyl “Sex Pistols” decal on top then. The finish began with 2 cans each of dollar store ‘gloss black’ and ‘yellow’ spray paint that was blotched on the close up bursts over and over and over with planned drips. Then templates for the Anarchy and Skull symbols were cut and sprayed on randomly using black/yellow and yellow black layers of at least 3 layers per skull and anarchy symbol. Then the inside was painted with foam brushes with candy apple red paint. I poured 1/4 of a quart into the bottom and smeared it around. A few ashes found its way into the tint. Once dry I poured a glob of poly into the bottom and smeared it on thick. Running thick. Once run remains on one inside panel. Then I used some oak strips of moldings to create a drawer shelf that would allow a lid to sit ‘within’ the box making it lay flush with the edges. I put two handles on the top to ‘pull’ the lid off and out of the box. One single “sex pistols’ pretty vacant decal in the middle of the inside bottom.
The “Skull Box” was built from scratch. The finish is a ’shit load’ of paint and poly layered over the other many times. The Skulls came from “Skull a Day”. The handle is steering wheel knob. See and read more here.
And here too for more photos.
The “Rock and Roll Box” was the first box. I had made this box some time ago for the utility purpose of storing some of my fave tools. I began painting it one day and couldn’t stop. It has a little bit of everything, old Taxi top sign, some of our best saved up stickers from bands, tons of poly and two boxes that sit within the box.
Read blog posts I made as I made each box: Toolbox blog posts, Punk Rock Life, More of the same plus some xtra’s on PRL, MF Tumblr search for box and toolbox, and I know i posted all over the place and will try to link up the rest later. Or just surf to one of the many sites we try to keep up with and search box or similar. Maybe you will find a blog post gem.
I put a shelf into the Coffin Box at the right end. I like it.
The Sex Pistol art project gallery is complete with all the photo galleries from beginning to end. Very Cool.
