Description from CAS: I was listening to a song by John Gorka. He was singing about going home from working in the mills, and it made me think of all of those towns going to rust.

MaryLou says:You got the “rust” covered..what would you do with that Dry Rust Spark Plug Pendant?

CAS says:Hi MaryLou. I actually had the Dry Rust Spark Plug pendant, and used it in a Steampunk necklace for a friend. It’s pictured in the gallery as “Megan’s Steampunk” if you’re interested.
