This is an idea I've had on my list to-do for a little over a year. I started with the colors I had on hand, but plan to expand the available colors in the near future.
The display disc is a custom laser cut acrylic disc friction fit with a 1x2 building plate.
The 1x2 plate can be affixed permanently, switched out with a brick, different colored plate or stacked with other discs to make a multi-colored figure display base.
Dimensions: 1/14" x 1 1/4" x 1/8" per disc.
“She walked out on you last Saturday
Under the wheels
Of a crowd on main street USA
Know how it feels
She said cancel everything
And like a fool
You never see what's happening
She dropped out school
Get away let her go
Let her go now
Hey in your brain
Yeah you know
Let her go now
I should have told you
To lose that girl
I should have told you
That's not your world
On her radio she turned the disco down
Disco down
She thought she looked good in purple jeans
From Santa Fe
And she overdosed on magazines
Just fade to grey‘...Saint Etienne
Rotating dial disc from an old phone.

This 1930 Ruxton Roadster is an extremely rare automobile, as were all Ruxtons. The Ruxton also had a convoluted history regarding its rather brief production and entry into the automotive world.
Conceived in early 1926 by racing engineer, William Muller, an employee of Edward G. Budd Manufacturing Co. of Philadelphia the car featured innovative engineering and design. The front-wheel drive Ruxton's lack of running boards and its 19-inch disc wheels aided in its low-slung look. Many Ruxton's featured Woodlite headlights (as shown here), adding to its exotic appearance. In comparison to the Cord L-29 (also front-drive), the Ruxton's were lighter and better balanced. To achieve this balance the transmission is divided into two pieces. The lower and reverse gears are placed in front of the differential, while second and third gears are positioned behind the differential. Front wheel drive allowed the vehicle to sit lower than most cars of its day and lowering its center of gravity made it very stable at higher speed.
Archie Andrews, a member of Budd's board of directors and a Wall Street financier was fascinated by the vehicle and immediately acquired the prototype. He approached Hupmobiles with hopes of having them produce it. When negotiations fell through, Andrews decided to produce the vehicle himself. In 1929, he formed the New Era Motors Inc. He hired Muller as vice-president. Muller handled the engineering aspects while Andrews sought financial backing which he found in a New York stockbroker named William Ruxton. Andrews decided to name the automobile after his prospective financial backer but at the last minute Ruxton backed out. Ironically Andrews never received a cent from the car’s namesake.
Andrews then approached Gardner Motor Co, located in St. Louis. Just like the incident with Hupmobiles, the Gardner Motor Company showed desire but eventually pulled out of the deal. Disappointed but persistent , Andrews next approached Marmon Motor Car Company located in Indianapolis. On the day the agreement was signed, the stock market crashed and Marmon Motor Car Company rescinded the agreement. Next, Jordan, Stutz, and Pierce were approached by Andrews but none wanted to build the Ruxton. Finally, a deal was struck with the Moon Motor Car Company. By the middle of 1930, the Ruxton finally went into production.
What few Ruxton’s were produced were manufactured in part, at the Moon Motor Car facility in St. Louis, Missouri and in part, at the Kisser Motor Company in Hartford, Wisconsin.
The 1930 Ruxton Roadster was powered by a Continental 4.4 liter side-valve, straight-eight cylinder engine capable of producing 100 horsepower.
Despite the Ruxton's innovative and quality engineering and design features, the car was doomed from the start; the demise of the economy due to the Great Depression plus the lack of an established dealer-network meant only a handful would ever be created. It is unknown exactly how many examples were created, though it is believed that around 500 were created. Other estimates put that number much lower, at around 100. In modern times, fewer than ten are known to exist.
Andrew Adler of Millbury, Ohio, owned this example for over 50 years. Several years ago the Adler estate donated the car to the Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg Automobile Museum were it now resides.

Ei meninas, boa tarde!
Enfim, meu tão sonhado Disco Ball! Ficava babando horrores nas fotos de vocês, e agora tenho o meu tb *-*
Fiz uma combinação bem fofinha, na minha opinião, q vi em muitas galerias, e tive q copiar! fica muito lindo um nude + glitter!
E amei esse nude, o primeiro que uso. Confesso que não gostava muito, mas tô começando a me apaixonar! :)
Usei:
Patins - Impala - 2x
Disco Ball - Impala - 2x
Não aprendi a passar o Disco Ball direito ainda, acredito que da próxima vez, uma só camada será o suficiente!
Muito obrigada pelo carinho de vocês, adorei cada recadinho que me deixaram na última foto! Vocês são umas fofas!!
Uma ótima semana a vocês!

Disc Golf at McCurry Park here in Fayetteville Georgia.
A sport very similar to golf except using discs.
They look very much like frizbees to me. :-)
The first image is a diagram of hole #3.
My shadow is over the tee itself.
The second image shows the course through the trees.
The "hole" is hardly visible in the background.
The third image is hole #3 itself.
The disc must be thrown into the basket.
Much fun for anyone!

A browse around the machinery auctions at Sutton is always a great way to unearth some dusty, rusty and crusty photo opportunities to add to the fenstract mini-series.
Collab with Marc B.B.
a bit simple, almost noob, but its was more a test of differing light tools in preparation for a bigger collab another time.

Squeeze very hard and hope for the best. The single front disc fitted to a Kawasaki Z900 from the early 1970s.
Blanc CDs were once commonly used for backups, distribution of custom software and client documents.
Every year, It is becoming more and more challenging to find a use for them. It seems most are found on Flickr as photo subjects.
by Ferenc Laborcz, erected at Mosonmagyaróvár, Hungary, in 1967. The sculpture commemorates the olympic victory of Rudolf Bauer, champion of the 1900 Paris Olympic Games in disc-throwing, a student of the local agricultural college then.

I’m thankful that wider tires are en vogue. This Willits style ISO disc brake mount pretty much negates any flex (and some say beauty) of a raked fork blade. But with a 650x47 tire, the ride will feel just fine. These require a bit of work to get them to fit a curved blade. Since every builder has their own signature curve, it unfortunately can’t be a standardized item. #bicyclebuilding #discbrakes #chapmancycles

Maar wat staat hier op?
Hij is van roestvrij staal, alleen met handschoenen aanpakken en eerst de gebruiksaanwijzing goed lezen. Het ijkt mijn geen DVD of CD, maar wat dan wel?
Bedankt allemaal. Ik ben weer wat wijzer geworden.
Played around with a couple of other designs. I really like the minifig stand!
I filmed a step by step on how to build the circular SNOT disc, plus a look at the other designs I came up with using the same method.
Watch it here www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZw94Q3CnWg
Thanks so much to Matthew Coleman for the challenge to come up with something like this and to Thomas Kuperus for suggesting the smaller sized disc.
