After fabricating some more parts and a bit of tweaking, I've finally managed to get a working Walschaerts valve gear mechanism. It all fits within almost one stud of the wheel for a slim profile (which was my main goal). The geometry isn't optimized or finalized for the actual build, but at least I have a working proof-of-concept which I can adapt to final model. I'll document the bits I made and how I made it work in subsequent posts and on my website www.brickdimensions.com.
On a photowalk in Jaipur, we wandered into a courtyard where welders were at work fabricating a wagon or cart of some kind. Bemused by the cameras, they simply went on about their business and seemed content to let us photograph them.
When I was in Montreal I saw this dog walker....and took the picture....but I remember telling myself of how lucky, Frank and I are to have all of this room to play in ....and that how weird it must be for a dog to be raised in a concrete jungle...
So this is where the fabrication comes in...
I've added all the concrete.....actually the whole right side was lined up with parked cars....and in front of her was an oncoming bus......
Can ya tell I'm finding fillers till the day I leave....lol...lol....
The flickr size and quality does not do this image any justice. I have provide an external link for your review. I posted it as a large image as well as a higher quality.
Lot's of focus on treatment and post process. This was shot last night with a 580EX II flash. That is where the title comes to play. The final output had about 20 layers cumulative. Each focusing on a specific portion of the image. What you see is the final retouch, blending, and combination.

Feelings overcome thoughts on this road alone to work today...am I bound to follow it and not deviate on my way? Choices I plead myself to make, abandon or forsake...is there a difference in which I choose to take? Two sides of myself in doubt, who will win I ponder?... I must bury my fears deep down under, I surely cannot continue on towards my own life like this much longer...
(Just to give a little more insight as to the title -> on the left is a fabric factory, to the right a political poster "vote to win" , she definitely was walking towards work....and everyone at the time had politics and decisions on their mind....everyone promising 'new' 'better' or even 'brighter future'.....seemed interesting that I caught her in between it all in the middle. World recession and many jobs lost....and decisions to be made with the future of who runs the country hmmmm....sometimes you cannot control it all in life but move on and continue, tomorrow is another day.....)

The dedication reads:
"On the Occasion of the Silver Jubilee of the Accession of His Majesty King George Vth. To Commemorate the Christian Amity existing between the Nations of the Empire.
This Window was erected by W. H. Cawthra."
The window represents various countries and territories forming the Empire as of 1935.
The window was designed by Toronto artist Peter Haworth, the Art Department director at the Central Technical School and Instructor of Design and Drawing at The University of Toronto. The fabrication of the window was carried out by the firm of Pringle & London of Jarvis Street.
By the time the window was unveiled in December of 1936, King George Vth had died. This window had become a memorial rather than a celebration.

"I am drawn to the beauty of things imperfect, impermanent and incomplete. Aerial photographs of hurricanes above water are stunning and seductive. The soft spiral and eye inform of terror and devastation. My object is to cause the viewer to speculate, imagine and to investigate, in a personal way, those issues relative to a sense of beauty, which drives the focus of my research."

Fabricated frame with sterling silver and copper. I hand stamped the frame and solder pure silver leaves. The last touch was to add LOS patina and rivet the bronze clay flowers.

thanks for looking in & hope you have a great week
View inside the Doxford Engine Works Fabricating Department, Pallion, Sunderland, August 1954 (TWAM ref. DS.DOX/6/11/9/10). The image shows workers welding the bedplate of a six cylinder marine engine.
Sunderland has a remarkable history of innovation in shipbuilding and marine engineering. From the development of turret ships in the 1890s and the production of Doxford opposed piston engines after the First World War through to the designs for Liberty ships in the 1940s and SD14s in the 1960s. Sunderland has much to be proud of.
Tyne & Wear Archives cares for tens of thousands of photographs in its shipbuilding collections. Most of these focus on the ships – in particular their construction, launch and sea trials. This set looks to redress the balance and to celebrate the work of the men and women who have played such a vital part in the region’s history. The images show the human side of this great story, with many relating to the world famous shipbuilding and engineering firm William Doxford & Sons Ltd.

Taking centre stage at the entrance to the overflow yard of CT Coaches (actually space rented at an adjacent steel fabricator) in Radstock is former Frome Bus Optare Solo HD59NUJ.
Greater interest is in the background though with WV02CEY a Mercedes Sprinter 413CDi with Onyx bodywork, and then former Northern General Metrobus C750OCN, a redundant playbus.
Fabricated by The First Baron Armstrong, in his munitions factory in the 1870s, "The Iron Bridge" spans Debdon Burn as it flows through the grounds of Cragside, the former home of the munitions magnate.
As much as I find inspiration in renaissance paintings and timeless imagery, I am just as attracted to technology and the future of it like virtual reality. It's a concept that I've always wanted to explore and will continue to do so.

Fabricated in 1868 by the De Winton Union Ironworks in Caernarfon, this is the oldest surviving example of a slate planing machine, used to smooth blocks of slate. It languishes in a lean-to shed at the slate mill in Pen yr Orsedd quarry.
Day 159
And just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?
This is another shot from yesterday! I have one more for tomorrow. That's nail polish on my face, in case you were wondering. I'm off to physio today and then going to dinner I think. Everyone is being super top secret about the plans, but I was told to "look pretty". Hmm...
I recently promised myself I would stop forgetting to upload photos to my Facebook page, but now for some reason Facebook isn't letting me post anything. It won't even let me view other people's photos. SO FRUSTRATING.
***Added a texture to this last minute. Thank goodness for the "replace photo" button!
fabricated silver ring with mokume gane accents. one of a kind. can also be worn as pendant on a leather cord or long chain.
'Seated Ballerina', 2010-2015 by Jeff Koons.
I'm guessing the obvious connect with the Edward Degas Ballerinas is deliberate although the main emphasis of the exhibition text was that this series of works are about taking an object such as a small kitsch porcelain figure and making something incredibly beautiful from it. As this shot shows quite well the reflections in the polished stainless steel were pretty amazing........
We were one of the first into the Exhibition on it's last day so I grabbed a few shots of the Galleries before they became too busy.
I'm guessing not everyone will appreciate Jeff Koons art from my photos but I'd urge you to see some of his work in person if you can as the technical perfection might impress you even if the 'art' leaves you cold.

From Wikipedia : "Jeffrey Koons (born January 21, 1955) is an American artist known for working with popular culture subjects and his reproductions of banal objects, such as balloon animals produced in stainless steel with mirror-finish surfaces. He lives and works in both New York City and his hometown of York, Pennsylvania.
His works have sold for substantial sums, including at least two record auction prices for a work by a living artist, including $91.1 million with fees in May 2019. On November 12, 2013, Koons' Balloon Dog (Orange) sold at Christie's Post-War and Contemporary Art Evening Sale in New York City for US$58.4 million, above its high US$55 million estimate, becoming the most expensive work by a living artist sold at auction. The price topped Koons' previous record of US$33.7 million and the record for the most expensive living artist, held by Gerhard Richter, whose 1968 painting, Domplatz, Mailand, sold for US$37.1 million at Sotheby's on May 14, 2013. Balloon Dog (Orange) was one of the first of the Balloon dogs to be fabricated, and had been acquired by Greenwich collector Peter Brant in the late 1990s. His Rabbit in stainless steel fetched the highest price ever for a piece by a living artist in May 2019, selling for $91 million.
Critics are sharply divided in their views of Koons. Some view his work as pioneering and of major art-historical importance. Others dismiss his work as kitsch, crass, and based on cynical self-merchandising. Koons has stated that there are no hidden meanings in his works, nor any critiques."

'Freddie Gilroy and the Belsen Stragglers' is a giant steel structure made by Ray Lonsdale, an artist, fabricator and sculptor and is now on permanent display, thanks to the generosity of a local Scarborough resident.
The sculpture is based on a retired miner Ray became friends with who turned out to also be one of the first soldiers to relieve the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp at the end of World War II.
This piece of art is not just about Freddie Gilroy but represents all the normal people that were pulled out of an ordinary life and forced into a very extraordinary and dangerous one during the World Wars.
Ray Lonsdale, sculptor from County Durham said:
"Scarborough is a unique town and I am pleased that my 'Freddie Gilroy and the Belsen Stragglers' will be on show there for residents and visitors alike to look at and enjoy. This piece is almost a war memorial as it depicts the lives of all those who suffered during the World Wars".
"I hope that people get enjoyment from my sculptures but also reflect on the sensitivity and emotion which I have tried to convey through my work."
