Crazy Tuesday - Hand Tools
This stainless implement is used to decoratively halve round fruit or veg into a star shape...... I have had this for well over 30 years, have no idea what it is called or where I got it from. I regularly use it for lemons when serving fish and tomatoes before I grill them for an English breakfast or a steak dinner!!
I have tried to find something similar online but nowhere to be found!! I would be very interested to know if any of our Crazy Tuesday friends have had one or got one still?
Screw thread Gauge
This simple tool is used to measure the pitch of a machine screw. Generally, you need one set for imperial threads and one for metric threads. Each toothed blade has a number stamped on it confirming the pitch in either inch or millimeter fractions. This humble tool is essential to engineers and has changed very little over the centuries. However, the world's first national screw standard was the British Standard Whitworth (BSW) devised and specified by Joseph Whiteworth in 1841.
The tool is simple to use, just find the right serrated edged blade for a snug fit between the thread or pitch of the screw you wish to measure.
The arrangement for this shot was laid out on a brass plate. The bokeh was created by scattering some steel and brass swarf on the plate.
Many thanks for all views, fav's and comments! HMM!

Thanks to everyone who took the time to view, comment, and fave my photo. It’s really appreciated. 😊
This is my entry for this week's Macro Mondays challenge, Hobby.
Among my many hobbies (Cricket, Photography, Games, Cooking etc.) I like Woodworking to be one of the best.
Not least because it is the most recent one, but mainly because it is like my job as an Engineer - you imagine, you design and you build, you fail, you correct and you succeed.
Also, as many countless people before me have said, making something with your own hands has a sense of satisfaction that is matched by very few other things.
Setup: I used two speedlights spilling light onto two DIY paper diffusers - one to light the scene fully, the other one to get the shiny bevel on the Chisel.
Although, in reality, those shavings were the result of planing wood rather than chiseling, for me this is a more pleasant image.
Having said all that, MY CHISELS NEED SHARPENING!

Shadows thrown through the holes in an old rasp. Thought this was a bit more interesting than just photographing the rasp itself.

For Macro Mondays theme; "Hand Tools". Our drill has solid wood handles, and takes a lot of strength to drill a hole. We are so thankful for the electric drills we enjoy today. HMM!

A collection of screwdriver bits for this week's Macro Mondays 'hand tools' theme. The length of each 'rack' of bits is 5 cm giving an overall image of approximately 7 x 7 cm.
15 images in a focus stack processed in Helicon Focus (option C). Photoshop for dust and speck removal. Lightroom for cropping, split toning and global adjustments. Conversion to mono in Silver Efex Pro.
Many thanks to all who view, fave and comment on this image and the others in my photostream. HMM!
To make a faucet stop dripping, you need to replace the tap washer. Eventually this will not be enough since the problem is inside the pipe: this is where the Tap Valve Seat Grinding Tool enter to perform the task. The tap reseating tool + a new plumbsure rubber tap washer = One perfect job! Save water! Save earth!
HMM! =)

Posting late in the day for Macro Mondays "Hand Tools" theme, but not yet added to the 365 as I need to catch up, and hate getting them out of order!
An old hand drill which belonged to my late father in law. Converted to a cyanotype in Silver Efex in deference to it's advanced years.
Front approx 1" across, large cog 3" approx.
I always think the space craft which swallows another one in the Bond film looks a bit like this.
