In my research I came across a beautiful object from the Libraries & Museums Headquarters. I remembered years back someone telling me there was handling boxes made up from local histories. I was not disappointed when I seen the boxes and still amazed that they loan these out to community groups. I have been living beside the Clyde for over 6 years and since arriving in Glasgow in 1998 have been interested in ship building. So I was naturally drawn to the ship building handling box at the headquarters and fell in love with the plumbline in the metal case.

This was used to get straight lines and you can make a plumbline by adding any weight to a piece of string. This gave me an idea of everyone making their own plumbline using smells and textures.
