A good old buddy turned 40 this week, so when the recycle dumpster gave me this fantastic vintage cooler I knew exactly who was meant to have it.
Even when you're so old your bottom rots off, you still have worth, ya know?

| Spay-on clear rubber to hold all the old in, and to waterproof the exposed foam. |
 |
| You can't really see what's going on in this one |
 |
| The bottom part is 3/4" cedar that was leftover from the bookcases still waiting for assembly. The edging is a stainless steel sink trim cut to fit; the sides are spar varnished cedar(?) plywood that I found in the road, screwed into the bottom with stainless screws and siliconed onto the sides. |

| Aluminum corner pieces from the bit my Mr cut out of the screen door to put the cat flap in and more stainless screws. |

I have begun collecting items that do not take up space in my home.
 |
| Morris |
 |
| Southwest City |
 |
| Sapulpa |
They are all pretty great, but this one is the best because it is mine.
 |
| (Had to edit out the rust spot) |
I can see it from my window.
 |
| (not my house) |
There's even a little light on top to keep the airplanes away,
which I will post a photo of as soon as I figure out the light settings.

Self

| "why cain't yew never paint sump'n purty, like flaaars?" |
I showed it to one of my moms and she didn't think it looked like me.
But that was before I added the background. You can tell it's one of mine by the ingredients:
Phthalo blue
ALL the rainbow
an umbra
dots
stars, regardless of whether they're needed or not
The upper lip part is how I really look, but can be interpreted as an homage to Frida if you so choose.
