the J-COBS 1940 WWII Airplane engine AViATION ART Modern Lamp
A few weeks ago we ventured to the “warehouse”. A place where creative minds run wild-looking at all of the old aviation parts and equipment that has gathered for the past 60+ years (Thanks Gramps). We recently came across these Jacobs radial engine pistons used in some the greatest planes ever built including the Boeing Stearman, Cessna AT-17, Waco and Grumman Ag Cat. Buried beneath Hamilton Standard hubs from the 1940′s, unused and minty fresh, still in their original boxes. Since finding them we decided to honor Jacobs and create the J-COBS Limited edition desk lamp. Available in back edition (Limited to 200) or chrome edition (limited to 100). Pistons polished to a mirror finish and stamped with the flying monkey logo. Available at Plane Pieces Inc

Certainly not plain pieces! I noticed you mentioned old Hamilton Standard hubs in the “warehouse” you visited. I am looking for some old hubs for a restoration here in Australia. Could you put me in contact with Gramps?
