This is Porcus Minoris Mark 0.5- or Pig Iron, for short. (He’s really too little for the extra syllable.) He’s the original test run to see if I could machine stitch the little squeakers.
Mr Tabubil has claimed him as an office mascot. His name is “Furnace Pig” – and I have stuffed his belly with pot pouri, so that he can climb all over the job site and get black and dirty and still come out smelling of roses.
