18-02-2026: Activity - Bring Along an Interesting Object

This is a theme we enjoy at least once a year, where Shedders are invited to raid their cupboards, attics, garages or sheds for anything they feel would be 'Interesting'. Firstly, to see if anyone might know what it is, and secondly to tell us all about it.

This time we had ten items to consider and chat about:


* Childhood Tin Money Box
* Useful o
bjects created with Gridfinity 3D printing
* Letterpress Composing Stick, used in the days of manual typesetting
* Cultural head wear collected from trips around the the world
* Unusual micrometers
* Abney level
* Sugar nips
* Ornate wooden box
* Self-made Deciding and graduating tool
* Sugar cone cutter
