Here is a picture of my recently acquired clock (or it will be when delivered as it's in transit). This was made by my Great Uncle in the 30's or 40's. He only made three of them. Wood is mesquite with ironwood, suguaro cactus spines and other desert woods inlay. I'll post better pics when it arrives, this was taken with my phone.
My other gloat is a Starrett 18" combination square an old Stanley Combination square, a 4in Disston & Morss all metal square and various calipers and the like. My step-father was an auto mechanic and my Mom allowed me to pilfer whatever I wanted. Shame he wasn't a woodworker.

You may have to explain those woods to a lot of easterners.
