The regulator is a cheapie. I didn't know it when we purchased it. Karl Mullendore says it will fail and quickly :(
Also the regulator isn't protected from road debris nor does it have a bracket for support.
More projects to work on :(

To maximize the performance of the length-constrained system, Peacekeeper used an extendable exit cone (EEC) for its 2nd and 3rd stages. The EEC translated from a stowed position to an operational position during flight, more than tripling the nozzle expansion ratio for optimal performance at altitude. In mid-1977, an EEC designed and built by Allegany Ballistics Laboratory (ABL) was successfully tested at Edwards Air Force Base as part of an early Hercules program to demonstrate advanced technology in an MX third stage. Later, Peacekeeper became the first ballistic missile system to flight test a nozzle with an EEC.
LGM-118A Peacekeeper
The Peacekeeper served as the United States Air Force's most powerful, accurate, and technologically advanced Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) deterrent. Conceived to replace the Minuteman ICBMs, its development began in the early 1970s under the name "Missile, Experimental," or MX. Later, it received the official name "Peacekeeper." The first test flight took place in 1983 at Vandenberg AFB, California. Peacekeepers became operational in 1986.
Constructed with an airframe made of a Kevlar epoxy composite, the Peacekeeper was much lighter than previous ICBMs, and it could carry more warheads. When combined with new Multiple Independently Targeted Re-entry Vehicles (MIRV) technology, one Peacekeeper could accurately deliver a number of nuclear warheads on different targets at the same time. A four-stage missile, Peacekeeper was the first Air Force ICBM to use the "cold launch" technique similar to the system used to launch missiles from submarines.
The Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START) II, signed in 1993 with Russia, removed all multiple-warhead ICBMs. As a result of the changed strategic world situation and START II, the United States deactivated all 50 LGM-118As between 2003 and 2005. Some Peacekeepers were eventually used as satellite launch vehicles.

Was testing out my new 2x extender on my Canon EF 70-200 f2.8 UMS L. The resuts were quite a lot better than I had dared to hope and the biggest surprise was that the AF speed was much better than I had expected, well usable.

If your Scrabble board isn't big enough to contain your message, a nearby green army man can be enlisted to hold the tiles for you. That's four points for "me," completing the message "You've got a friend in me."
An estimated additional 500 former youth in care are expected to qualify for extended supports, including life skills programs that focus on financial planning, healthy living and employability, thanks to changes to the Agreements with Young Adults (AYA) program.

Emily, thankyou for cooperating with my weird ideas.
Hopefully where I airbrushed the expanded parts of the frame isn't to obvious. I got parts of the umbrella in the top corner when I moved back to fit Emily's power of tallness in the photo. I was going to play with colour in the background, but I like the clean slate of it for once.
Lighting: group effort!

Dear friends,
the new year has already begun and I’d like to share with you my latest designs, adding to the popular „Cute & Pure“ collection. There are some new fabrics, some you already have seen used for other fashions, but all designs were made with the mi and match possibilities in mind – as always ; ).
Thank you so much for stopping by and having a look, take care

Firewire Optical Extender allows you to extend a firewire device up to 500 meters using multimode fiber optic cable. The local and remote units connect using multimode fiber optic cable. Firewire Optical Extender is ideal solution for a wide range of applications like audio/video broadcasting, security systems, firewire networking etc.

It is also interesting to see how they have adjusted the crenellations on top of the fibre-glass entry gateway.
This camera was owned by a relative of mine, predating my father's time. He mentioned that it might have been owned by his father or an uncle or even older.
As a No. 3A Folding Pocket Kodak with the red sealskin bellows, it was either purchased new with these bellows no later than 1915 or the bellows were added as a later item aftermarket. The lens is the Bauch and Lomb variant with several times available. Only the T, B, 1/100, and 1/25 seem to work. Shutter is continuously variable from F4 to F64.
The roll film for this series camera was discontinued in 1971 (122 roll). The negative is about 6 cm by 12 cm. A 120 roll is loose in the camera, held in place now with spacers. I will need to make the spacers firm so that advancing is more secure.
Once I have the advancing working to my satisfaction, I will count how many turns it takes to wind the film for each exposure. Because the window to see the film back is in the wrong place, I can't see the proper advancing marks.
It's my hope that I will be able to use this for special very wide field pictures of special subjects.
