AN ITALIAN EGG MAKING MACHINE

ANTIQUE ITALIAN EGG MACHINE

This is an Italian egg machine, probably from around early 1800's. The eggs come automatically out of the machine, no chicken needed, just a lot of concentration, and a bit of food coloring.
These are three eggs that were found and have been well-preserved as you can see by their color.
No one has been able to explain how this thing actually works, but looking at it, one can imagine that an egg is put in the top hole, and that eventually two eggs may come out of the bottom hole.
I find it quite amusing, though a little bit hard to believe.

The best way to know who I am is to see what I create. Take a look at this blog or my other one regarding my art.

Double images....

LOVE the double or triple image maker on my Nikon D80. Just set it, and then take two or three pics.

What's the weather like now in Perugia?

Cold one day, sunny the next. Cold in the house. But we still need our coats or lightweight ones or padded jackets outside. Chilly, and not sunny. I like it like this, no problem for me.
