    Default When hobbies collide..."repurposing"
    DH collects antique radios, 45 record players. Sometimes he brings a radio into the house and plays it on my dining room/sewing table. He made the mistake of leaving it right next to my sewing machine.

    The antenna made a convenient spool for my thread cone!
