Welcome my son, welcome to the machine
Where have you been?
It's alright we know where you've been
You've been in the pipeline, filling in time
Provided with toys and 'scouting for boys'
You brought a guitar to punish your ma
And you didn't like school, and you
Know you're nobody's fool
So welcome to the machine
Welcome my son, welcome to the machine
What did you dream?
It's alright we told you what to dream
You dreamed of a big star
He played a mean guitar
He always ate in the Steak Bar
He loved to drive in his Jaguar
So welcome to the machine

This image is a stack of four identical images as the exposure time was fairly long and I wanted to counter any noise. The individual frames were shot at 16mm at an aperture of f/10. Exposure times varied between 35s and 30s. Developed from RAW using DxO Optics Pro 11 and post-processed using Affinity Photo. Use of a mirroring filter has transformed an image of my washing machine drum into something akin to a metallic flower. Not my normal sort of thing, but I think I may do more of this, just for fun!

The Machine is a 1966 Chevrolet El Camino with a 355HP GM Performance ZZ4 350CID V8 crate engine and TH-700-R4 four-speed automatic overdrive transmission.
I bought The Machine in the spring of 1996 from the son-in-law of the original owner. It was my daily driver for most of the next four years.
The car was originally fitted with a 283CID V8 and a Powerglide two-speed automatic transmission, but the previous owner replaced these with a contemporary (to the car) 327 and a TH-350 transmission. I put in the ZZ4 and 700-R4 in 1998.
Sometime during its history, The Machine was fitted with a metal shell over the bed, and the bench seat was replaced with buckets. Since I've owned the car, I have rebuilt the front and rear suspension, installed a dual exhaust, replaced the stock steering gear with a quick-ratio unit from Durex, upgraded the open 3.08:1 rear end gear to 3.73:1 Posi-traction, got the old carb blueprinted to the cam profile and replaced the stock distributor with a Mallory Unilite electronic jobby. Then, of course, I replaced the motor and transmission. I finally found someone to take the shell during Christmas 1997 (he installed it on his '65).

In 2000 I began a restoration and customization of the El Camino that continued for the next ten years. I have documented it in my El Camino Restoration set.
BTW, I was the guy who started the original Chevelle List e-mail list in October of 1996.
The Roebling Machine Shop is located in Trenton, NJ. One of many buildings owned by John A. Roebling. The building served as the machine shop for Roebling's wire rope.
"The John A. Roebling’s Sons Company, the largest employer in Trenton and a world leader in the construction of suspension bridges had its beginnings when John Roebling started making wire rope in 1841 in Saxonburg, Pennsylvania, and moved his factory to Trenton in 1848. His sons built the steel and wire mill and town of Roebling, NJ, in 1905. In 1953, the family sold the Trenton and Roebling plants to the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company (CF&I). CF&I closed the Trenton plants in 1973 and the Roebling, NJ, plant in 1974."

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.
had this machine since 1997 but by 2010 the facsimile feature was hardly used due to the vast improvement of communication technology. yet, i continued to use the machine for its phone feature until it finally broke down yesterday. took a few photos for posterity before placing it in storage
One of the self built analogue testing machines by my father in law Theo, who passed away in April 2020.
I still miss him.
Reconstructed vintage machine shop as seen at the Greenfield Village, Dearborn, Michigan. My understanding is this was a machine shop that constructed and/or repaired boilers for locomotive steam engines. (Don't ask what year - I forgot exactly but somewhere in the mid to late 1800's)
D25998. A closer look at the Enigma coding machine as used by the German military to scramble messages during World War II.
The Enigma machines were so complicated that it was thought that the scrambled secret messages would be completely safe and unreadable if intercepted by the British intelligence service. Unbeknown to the Germans however, British code-breakers working at Bletchley Park, a top secret location in Buckinghamshire, were able to de-code the messages and had developed a machine of their own to help speed up the process.
The top secret location is no longer a secret and Bletchley Park, code named ‘Station X’ during the war, is now open to the public and people can see and learn about the vital work carried out there which hastened the Allied victory and is said the have shortened the war by at least two years.
A visit is highly recommended and more details can be found here:
