Recycled ceiling tin TB2'd and screwed onto CB top.Old old coins covering screws, Old DeArmond "Bug" pickup. An interesting red over gold lipstick case bridge that was converted into a cigarette lighter (this was a common mod in the 30s-50's. Unfortunately the flaw in the mod is that they leak. Maybe a rubber gasket? I like the idea of being able to pop off the bridge and having the option to light a cigarette or whatever and then put it back in place. Its a little high but it is a chugger. No buzzing or rolling yet but as I said I haven't really hammered on this yet. Also there's a pickle-fork tailpiece. I don't know if I have any forks left in the house. I actually used on of these to eat a salad- full size curled and used my hands about halfway through. Love this tailpiece alternatives. Anything to get to play with my propane torch!

Great idea on the old ceiling tile. Neat tuff. Yup, the fork is cool. Scrap metal you can cut makes nice tail pieces.
