That. Is. Awesome!
Even if your guests don't get what they're looking at, the graphic impact of the street map is very strong. But I think a majority of those who are intrigued enough to look closer will get it right away.
Excellent work!!!!

That's a really neat idea! The road map is really ingenious!
BTW that six stranded wire looks like RJ-45

thanks people!
My mate asked if I wanted my house (knowing that I was gunna put a button there) in the middle of the board.
I said that I didn't want it in the middle. Reason being that it might make people think about it... maybe!
So JM, if its RJ-45 what do you think I'm supposed to use it for and where do you think it would be connected?
I have the same thing in each room of the house and at the back door there is one with 2 cables there.
I tested the continuity between the one at the front door and the cables at the back door and they aren't connected!?

RJ-45 is the connector used for a network cable. The cable itself is called Cat-5e or now they have Cat-6. Most houses are pre wired and the same cable can carry either signal, or both with the right connector.

What dp said. Having RJ45 wired into each room gives the ability to network devices. Everything from game consoles, Blu-Ray, TVs etc. around the house. There probably is a places where they all terminate so you can attach them to a router from an ISP and what not. I have wired my house in a similar fashion. DSL router comes to one room, I've ran cables to all the devices we need networking for. Three cables to the living room, one for the Blu-Ray, one for the Xbox, and one for the DirecTV box. I also have cables running to my computer and to another room where we used to have a computer.

I forgot...the two signals are phone and data.

Cleaned up my faded and scratched and slightly rusted bumper:
As it was:
After sanding and primer:
First oat of black (original color)
2nd coat and finished.
This was all done with a rattle can believe it or not.

The bar B and I have been working on for a while.
The wood I salvaged out of the scrap bin in the architecture shop when I was in school. It was a head and foot board set stained a dark brown. We sanded off the stain and I coated in with tung oil.
We still have to add some lighting and transfer all our bottles.
B found the stools on clearance at Tractor Supply.

I made food. Then I ate it! Turkey, brussel sprouts with bacon and crispy shallots, sweet potato, and beer.

Yum! Food can be very crafty, and goes better with beer than metalwork. Actually, I take that back. Beer goes with everything.
A couple of new things I'm learning --
I saw a video demo on YouTube, and realized I had to learn how to forge horseshoe hearts - here's the first batch:
And a little further outside my comfort zone, I've made a couple of forays out to East Jesus in Slab City, CA (check out
http://eastjesus.org/
) and the last time I was there, they let me dig through their "inventory" and build this wind sculpture in the Art Garden:
And these letters for their vehicle gate:
