I thought I would ask this question since someone just gave me another tarantula.  I have had spiders for almost thirty years now.  I have always been fascinated by them.  I have had over the course of many years snakes, scorpions and lizards.  I love my rattlesnakes the most.  I had a Cobra that was slamming hot BUT they are not for the novice person.  I really loved my southern Copperhead as well.  They are beautiful.  I will eventually have a spider display next to my desk eventually but not soon enough.  I have the design in my head so all I have to do is build it.  I think I am going to get in touch with a local lathe guy who makes wooden cups and ask him to make me some spindles and possibly help me build a desk.  I would then build the shelf around that.
So what are you guys into?

Gorgeous!

I have been doing some thinking. I think I a going to get rid of all my typers except for my Royal Apollo 10. I don't use them at all. I do enjoy them and I guess they could make cool wall art but I think I would be better off just using the Apollo 10 because it is comfortable. Now here is the question. How should I get rid of them? I could just take them to the scrapyard which would suck because that is where I rescued them from. I could list them on Craigslist but that is a joke or I could just give them away. What to do? Any ideas?

I actually had it like that and it was cool but I live in a mobile home and the walls are thin so I can't.

Obviously my hero is Hemingway. I would like to some day own a small collection of the typers he used. I am always looking for pictures and\or information about the different ones he used. I know that he used Underwood and Royal. I think he may have used Smith- Corona too. If anyone knows the models let me know. Thanks.
