My new "Hobby"

Thanks, Gents.
In keeping with my commitment to use Re-claimed Kitchen-ware, I sometimes have to get creative. This particular tail came from a Bar Strainer ( @WV Sawmiller This came from your bar....). Then I stretch it out to depict the tail.

Dad drat it! I knew I used to have one of those but could not find it the last couple of times I looked for it. Now I know why.

It is probably being put to better use than when I had it. Very nice work. Do these ideas come to you naturally or does it require pharmaceutical or chemical assistance of some sort?

Thanks, Howard.
Besides the fact that I quit drinking a while back, there are certain activities that I'm licensed for that preclude me testing positive for any of those unprescribed pharmaceutical or chemical elements (IYKYK). So any "weirdness" you may discern in my Art is all me. In this case, I was sent pics of the tell-tale, and glommed images of Cats off the Internet. The execution is solely me.
I can send the missing Bar strainer back, but without the spring- it won't strain. It just looks like a little Banjo (Hey! I have an idea.....).
