Allen Keys Alphabet



Today I rumaged through the toolbox (in my newly converted, painted-white, storage-walled workshop/studio). Contents include screws, drill bits, nails, rings, plugs, hooks in many shapes and sizes. After some experimenting I settled on trying to assemble an alphabet with the allen keys, which I seem to have in abundance and in various sizes. As you might suspect I've been to Ikea few times in the past years. Here's some evidence of an afternoon's assembling and re-assembling of allen key - letter shapes. 

Free download of AllenKeys-beta is now available on dafont.

SOLD at the showdown

Showdown evening 31st May '13, Anne and Russel sitting in front of the entrance before handing out flyers. 

Above are a few photos of our recent show at my local deli; Deli X, Deptford high street. On display (extended until 15th June) are recent photo collages by b-sights.co.uk, Seagull&Sword and some of my typographic map prints. 

Delicious Deptford Market inspired bites were served at the showdown by Sonia and the team at Deli X. It included spring-rolls, mini-toads in the hole, and spicy mini portions of Jamaican ackee and saltfish - which were just as well received by the guests as the art on the walls. Thank you to everyone who has helped making the event happen, to those who helped out on the night and to all the guests for turning up :)

If you haven't got the chance to go and see the show, view our prints and collages at b-sights.co.uk and ursulahitz.com
