Description Meet my new pup. He doesn't eat much and his barks are quiet. I think he's adorable down to his button noes and his clock part toes. He helps me scrounge up spare bits at the clock yard. His favorite toy is his old crusty dice he found at an abandoned warehouse. (That is actually where I found him wandering around in search of a good belly rub an oiling.) He is a native Texan from an abandoned warehouse in Amarillo.

I received a package of old spare clock parts from an estate sale and today is his birthday. I planned him out last night for the most part and got him put together today.

I'm really happy with Rusty. Won't you help find him a good home?

My cat Jules is looking a little jealous.
He makes a good watch dog though...

hehe, it was pretty much just looking at a box of antique gears and playing around with them until a form took shape. :3

I'm curious where do you usually find your supplies! Haha, for me I make do with what I have when inspiration strucks - which mean supplies are scarce ><

For this one I lucked out and there was an estate sale going on for an abandoned warehouse in Amarillo TX and there was just a random bag of old watch parts. On a more regular basis I hunt around at watch and clock repair shops. Antique shops too! For some of the more modern and cheaper jewelry pieces I make, I hunt around in the scrapbooking sections of craft shops like Michael's and Hobby Lobby as well as garage sales to hunt down unique findings.

That is SO COOL! If you know where to find your materials anything's possible...thanks for sharing btw, I'm so glad I came across your works, they are absolutely wonderful! I was browsing through anything steampunk for a break while working on a novel (which apparently everyone thinks it's impossible in my country) all the best in your works!

Thanks! I originally worked these up to sell but... heheh... having separation anxiety. They might go on sale at the next con I attend and be sold as a set.
