Flying Circle H

Flying Circle H Bring the Ride Inside! Desk lamps using pistons and engine parts. Rare Pistons. Vintage Pistons.

If you love the sound of the internal combustion engine at “Full Song” and you tend to surround yourself with reminders of things that move fast, like Automobiles, Aircraft, Motorcycles, Speed Boats, then this is the place for you.

Love these shots from Bill Swanson.
