Well, it's getting lonely down in the shop. I miss having something decorative on the wall to look at when I'm done with a part and just sit back to refresh. So what do you guys have on the wall in the way of pictures to look at? Remember now this is a family site, so keep it relatively clean.
It used to be Marilyn, or Brigit Bardot. Fast forward to the new millenium... what's or who's on your wall? ???

Since this site has the aim of being friendly to women children and small animals. and our shops are visited by women children and small animals lets call this thread shop art instead. that is unless your term refers to the newest scantly clad photo of a CNC Machine.
This is what hangs on my shop wall

If you really want a calendar with some nice fabrication machines adorned with scantily clad women look here but Do not blame me if the wife objects My wife would not see the humor of me having one of these calendars in my shop. and notice i am not displaying those photos here .

A nicely typed memo, enclosed in clear plastic which has all of my machine settings on it. I know that a lot of you have laughed at the settings I had scribbled all over my walls---As I have piled more and more junk(valuable items) into my little shop, all the stuff scribbled on the walls was getting covered up. The new cabinet I added last week was the last straw!!! I finally had to write it down on paper.

Also a lathe feed and speed chart.

OK, how about a vintage Ducati motorcycle calendar and an international screw size chart; UNC, UNF, ISO, BA, with metric, number, letter, fraction, and metric drill sizes. It's from Small Parts, Inc, and Saturated Steam.
Can't we jazz it up a little?

I have a picture of my lathe as it was advertised for sale!!! ;D
I was in communication and negotiation with the guy for more than a month!!!
We eventually settled on a price and he took it off the site and waited for me to get the money.
Nice guy, wanted to make sure his lathe went to a good home.

As well as drill and tap charts, bolt head sizes and speed charts....The regular stuff!

When the new wall is built i will have place for more pictures and stuff!!

I've found some lovely WWII era Coca-cola pin up girl pictures that are tame enough to make it to the man cave without much in the way of complaints from SWMBO..... ;D

I also remember seeing a picture hanging on a wall of a late 1800's powerplant engine hall with polished porcelin floors, a mahogany desk, an upolstered chair, a palm tree situated in the corner, and a late 1800's era pin up girl poster on the wall....talk about having a man cave before it was hip! :big:
