This little gent is one of my favorite pals. He visits the shop every once in awhile just to see what is going on. Last time he came by, I gave him a box and a challenge: make this into something, then bring it back to show me. And he delivered. He worked very hard on this project, and I noticed he has some showman skills, too. He set the box on my table, but then had to reach into his pocket for the “OPEN” sign he hung on a hook out front. Very dramatic. His pizzaria is very well made using duct tape, string and “fuzzy leaf” details, plus he can answer most questions about what is going on inside. I seriously think we are looking at an engineer or architect here. Either that or mayor. Look out, world.

Next challenge is a clear plastic sleeve. I shall report on his result, drama & all.
