#MacroMondays theme #Cutter

For #MacroMondays and #cutter.

I'm lucky that my husband has many tools and parts, and keeps his tools clean. He found this cute little red thingy last night, but I didn't see it in the light until this morning.

Part of miniature pipe cutter shown is 3cm / 1.2 inches at an angle, or a width of 5cm/1.97 inches across.

Thanks for looking.

Multicolor is the theme.

Macro Mondays is the group.

-This image is 2.5in. on the long edge. It is lit with a single light from behind set at 2:00

For Macro Mondays: "Made of metal"

These tiny pocket scissors are rather too short and blunt to be used as a major cutting tool, but are good enough to cut a label of a new top and I keep them close to my wardrobe. For Macro Mondays group.

ANJA’s design is based on the legendary Bristol Pilot Cutters of Britain. These boats were able to weather strong storms as well as be sailed short-handed. They would take the pilot out to large ships waiting in the Bristol Channel. Modern racing yachts evolved from this design. Construction is of mahogany plank on oak frames. Roger Long of Woods Hole, Massachusetts designed this boat in 1976, and it was built in 2014.

ANJA’s rebuild was featured in Wooden Boat Magazine, Jan-Feb 2023, pg 70-79.

I took this photo at Port Townsend's 2022 Wooden Boat Festival. You can see Adventuress schooner and some smaller sailing crafts in the background

Macro Mondays- Cutter

I have these interesting shears which are used to clip small pieces of my favorite herbs. The shears work really well.

I thought they were clean, but some dust/flour has shown up.

Macro Mondays, March 9: Cutter.

HMM Everyone!

A fridge magnet sized pizza cutter! I don't really think that at this tiny size it could be used as described. I use it for holding dental appointment notes.

A very close up view of a kitchen tool for cutting crinkle cut chips. I arranged A4 gold and silver coloured cards to reflect window light on to the cutter, the glass hob and the miniature pot that I used as a prop. The total cutting edge is 3 inches across, this image is about 2 inches across.

Not just butterflies at the Stratford upon Avon butterfly farm - Leaf cutter ants too.

Atta is a genus of New World ants of the subfamily Myrmicinae. It contains at least 17 known species. Atta leafcutter ants are relatively large, rusty red or brown in colour, and have a spiny body and long legs. The three main castes within a nest are the queen, worker, and soldier. Only the queens and males have wings, and these ants are also known as reproductives or swarmers. Although most of the ants in the nest are female, only the queens produce eggs.

Cutters

The captain of this cutter had to surrender his captain's license after going so far off course. The good news, nobody drowned when the ship ran aground.

The theme for the week is kitchen. I used an old-fashioned crinkle cutter for the subject and had three extension tubes on my 100mm macro lens to get up close and fill the frame. For the lighting, I used a desk lamp with an orange gel on the right and my ice light with a blue gel on the left to achieve this effect. Once again, I was able to use a family heirloom for my photo subject. HMM!

It's going about its business as an important pollinator. By the looks of the tattered wings, this one has been pretty busy.

Thank you for your visits and comments, much appreciated! Have a wonderful day!

Leafcutter ants can carry more than 20 times their body weight and cut and process fresh vegetation (leaves, flowers, and grasses) to serve as the nutritional substrate for their fungal cultivars.

ODC "Great things in the world" sewing gadgets that make things easier.

My new sewing toy. I have only made a few small quilts that was always a chore to cut out and am hoping this will make it a little easier. The sample cuts came out really nice.

Ragged cut. HMM

Macro Mondays theme Cutter

I didn't really enjoy this weeks theme but decided to rise to the challenge. This is a julienne cutter to cut veggies into strips especially for sushi making. The blade is just under 2 inches in width so it's well within the requirements. HMM!
