Feeling Punchy

Acquired more random stuff.  The triangles look to be reinforcements for mitered corners in picture frames (or I could just be making up stuff).  Anyway, I have a small punch tool and *POOF* I have bi-metal and Swiss cheese components for new creations.

A friend hooked me up with a new “found” object-horseshoe nails. The steel is stiff but the tip is bendable. With the rowel focal point, a very modern western look.
