Can I borrow your coat, Mr Cow?

My punk hairstyle grabbed some attention when I was buyng the cow-like cloth from the textile store. The old women who were buying some drapes looked at me disapprovingly and the salesperson didn't take me very seriously at first. But I still found some good cow cloth and that was the main objective, wasn't it?



I glued the cloth on the barrel surface with Bostik contact glue. When it dried, I cut the cloth away from the window hole and around all the threads. The cloth looked nice on the barrel and I was satisfied with my work again. However, it was now the evening before the Assembly '05 and there wasn't any time to waste admiring my handiwork.



Under pressure to finish in time, there was a little screw-up in measuring the cloth and I had to glue it in two parts. I hid the seam with another shiny aluminium moulding mounted with hex bolts.



This little fella was a gift from my little sister - she thought it would add character to my project, and I want to thank her for her gift. The small volt meter he is holding will be hooked up to the 12v line from the PSU - it is just for show really.
