A very odd machine on display at the Reynolds Alberta Museum (of transport), also extremely difficult to photograph where it is placed within the museum:
A 1949 Multi-Ped, a one-off: "1949, Edward (Ward) Snell of Edmonton wanted to design a machine that would travel over muskeg and rough terrain. Wheeled vehicles often got bogged down under these conditions, so Snell made his tractor walk rather than roll. The "legs" move independently, making the tractor walk.
Along with Aimee Dragon, who owned a repair shop in Wetaskiwin, Snell built this prototype between 1947 and 1949.
Engine: Case Model R tractor, 4 cylinder Waukesha
Horsepower: 20 hp @ 1425 rpm
Bore & Stroke: 83 x 102 mm (3-1/4 x 4 inches)

For this weeks shot I went for a machine I love and would find it hard to live without - My food mixer..
I love to cook and bake and could cheerfully spend hours in the kitchen. This is a recent addition and one I am fast coming to love dearly.
Happy Easter to all my Flickr friends.. xxx
A very modern design of stucture atop Moiwayama Observation Deck. Looks like a time machine that travels back and forth the time stream.
A Linotype machine in the Fort Witten Farm & Transport exhibits building. My wife and I joined family to tour the Historic Crab Orchard Museum in Tazewell, Virginia. The information sign about the machine reads,
"Linotype Machine
1886-1970s
Before computers were developed the Linotype was used to print all books and newspapers.
Southern Office Supply in Bluefield used this machine from 1940 to 1997 to print newspapers and books.
By 1453, Gutenberg had invented a printing press which required that each letter be hand-set. This method of setting type was used until another German (who moved to the US) developed the Linotype machine Ottmar Mergenthaler unveiled the Linotype in 1886 exploding the publishing world. Prior to the Linotype, composing words for one page of a newspaper required 25 to 35 hours of labor. The linotype reduced the time to 3 hours.
Mergenthaler created a comprehensive set of tiny brass molds. Up to 1,100 of these molds stood at attention in an overhead storage tray, waiting to be released at the command of the operator's keyboard, dropped to a conveyor belt, and assembled in order with several dozen similar molds in a single line. The line of molds was then placed in front of a pot of molten lead. At precisely the right moment, a plunger filled the molds with what immediately became a very hot "line of type" - a whole number of which lined up to form a column or "galley" of type.
A competent operator could produce in excess of two galleys of newspaper columns each hour. Before computers were developed the Linotype was used to print all books and newspapers."

This weekend in my weekend projects video podcast you can learn how to make Mitch Altman's brain machine and play with your brainwaves!
GHH mining machine underground shovel, when they were introduced in the Monteponi mine, helped to make the work lighter and faster. He wouldn't mind seeing it displayed in a protected area and not exposed to the elements. A machine created to work indoors that ends its "career" outdoors. The most interesting part are the reinforcements made by hand welding along the entire profile of the blade of the shovel. Although not a certainly functional artistic work; this is proof of the mastery and skills that the staff had acquired in working in a mine like this.
Pala da sottosuolo GHH mining machine, quando vennero introdotte nella miniera di Monteponi aiutarono a rendere il lavoro più leggero e veloce. Non sabbe male vederla esposta in una zona protetta e non esposta alle intemperie. Una macchina che nasce per lavorare al chiuso che finisce al sua "carriera" all'aria aperta. La parte più interessante sono i rinforzi realizzati con saldatura a mano lungo tutto il profilo della lama della pala. Seppure non un lavoro artistico sicuramente funzionale; questo a riprova della maestria e delle competenze che il personale aveva acquisito nel lavorare in una miniera come questa.
