        No, that just makes them want to stand on their heads and look at the face while trying to insert a knife into the socket. And well, that is just not safe.

              I think it's actually done so it's harder for the plug to fall out if it's a little loose.

                What key combination do you use to invert them?

                    I think the Sketchboard might appeal to some here that enjoy sketching on tracing paper with a fat clutch pencil ..... I for one enjoy the feel!

                    Anton Reinig from Berlin has designed the Sketchboard to keep the process nice and tidy. I also thought that he has not overpriced the device at $30 and his target figure is very realistic so it will more than likely be a runner.

                        Fine design? Maybe not, but very fine creativity and an absurdly aesthetic eye.

                          I think it qualifies for sure.
                          It looks like an old commercial structure by the exposed mechanical, and wiring, and even some of the fixtures which fit the context so well. Plus the thoughtful way the key fixtures are mobile, means the space can be altered to any purpose.
                          But really I just love the funk πŸ‘

                                      Its my dream to live on a Wally Ace - on the Thames.

                                          I could probably find more pleasing to the eye boats but I love the interior of this one, its so spacious.

                                          The 73 is my favourite but its not big enough to live on

                                            Boat owners (I had one 17 years ago) have a saying:

                                            "The two best days of being a boat owner are the day you buy it and the day you sell it".

                                            http://www.solos-art.com

                                            If you see a toilet in your dreams do not use it.
