This is a question My most treasured possession

What's your most treasured possession? What would you rescue from a fire (be it for sentimental or purely financial reasons)?

My most treasured possession is the welding test piece I did when I was spending a winter out of the cold. It's a piece of steel, cut out of a handwelded plate, polished and bent across the weld through 180 degrees. You can see the grain of the weld, and it's the one perfect work of my hands.

In our house it's called the Luck, it always points outward, and it was the first piece of cold iron our daughter touched when she was born.
