20+ year old pot in the family. Personally, 15-ish year old Sony CRT 20" TV. Mono sound, crappy reception, ugly and weighs a ton, but it makes for good background noise. ~Feeding both addictions at once.

Doorknobs from 1880. House is 1970; we installed the knobs.

Anvil from 1900.

Leg vice from 1870s or so.

Furniture from 1890.

Cast iron skillet from ~1890

We used to live in a house built in the 1790s but we moved.

I've got a Bulova wristwatch made in 1946 that I wear a couple of times a week. A mantle clock by Sessions from 1952......works perfectly. A couple of desk lamps by Chase from the 1940's. A lot of quilts from the '20's and later.

1970 Sony STR-7065A Reciever, Similiar vintage Pioneer turntable and speakers. Used every day, for most of the day (I run my computer to the aux in, use it as my computer speakers.)
