The module is 15 feet at its highest point and spans approximately 54 feet in length and 33 feet in width. It contains 3,900 linear feet of nuclear-quality stainless steel piping, ranging in size from 0.5 to 26 inches in diameter, and more than 70 pipe hangers.
The Equilateral Triangle shape [Coaster?] is assembled from 3 modules. Each module is folded from 15cm square Harmony papers.
The Module is actually a 60 degrees "Reverse-fold" from a "Book-folded" square. The front and the back of the model are the same. 6 of these modules can also be assembled to form a Hexagonal Ring.
This series was created in 1990 and first published in Modular Origami [self-publication]. This module and it's variation to a Hexagon Ring is also published in the British Origami Society Booklet #58.
Lunar Module 2 was the second spacecraft built by Grumman Aerospace for use in the Apollo program. Originally, it was supposed to have flown in space, but the flight of Lunar Module 1 during the Apollo 5 mission was so successful that a second unmanned flight was considered unnecessary. Instead, Lunar Module 2 was used in drop tests to evaluate the performance of the landing gear. This craft is very similar to Eagle (Lunar Module 5), which carried Apollo 11 astronauts Armstrong and Aldrin to the surface of the Moon in 1969.
Apollo command module at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. I believe it is Command Module "Kitty Hawk" from Apollo 14, but I may be mistaken. Technically an HDR picture, but without the "surreal" look that many get.
Le Corbusier sviluppò il Modulor all'interno della lunga tradizione di Vitruvio, l'uomo vitruviano di Leonardo da Vinci, i lavori di Leon Battista Alberti, e altri tentativi di trovare proporzioni geometriche e matematiche relative al corpo umano e usare queste conoscenze per migliorare sia l'estetica che la funzionalità dell'architettura. Il sistema è basato sulle misure umane, la doppia unità , la sequenza di Fibonacci e la sezione aurea. Le Corbusier lo descriveva come "una gamma di misure armoniose per soddisfare la dimensione umana, applicabile universalmente all'architettura e alle cose meccaniche". Il modulor è anche utile per la rappresentazione della figura umana.

First module using the NELTC mainline standard. I really dig the wedge plate accent on the outside of the ballast. I am reasonably happy with the trees, but may tinker with the tops.
Ball detector module.
Can be used to count or detect the number of balls. Works with a hall chip built into the module. A small Neodym magnet is built into a rotating anchor. In order to measure a series of balls properly, a brake zone is built in. Without this braking zone the anchor will otherwise not have time to move back. The anchor has 2 extra holes of 4 mm. They can be used to place small steel axles as extra counterweight. However, I have tested it even without these extra weights and it works perfectly. The first hole of 4mm also serves to pull out the small magnet if you have the wrong polarity. I made a reference setup so that I have the correct polarity before pressing the magnet.
In the module extra height has been kept free to use Fischertechnik blocks. These are indicated on the drawing. Original Fischertechnik parts are always easier to connect with other parts. These extra parts are also shown in the drawing. The output of the module can be made via a straight connection or a 180 degree connection. All necessary blocks are also shown in the drawing.
For the hall connection I use a 3 pin female connetor. The wires of the hall can be easily connected without additional PCB. I swapped the 2 power pins of the hall output to the connector so the connector would have a standard connection: Output, +VCC, GND. This wiring then corresponds to that of a servo connection. The hall has an open collector output so it can easily be used on any kind of interface. Its power supply itself can be between 4V and 24V. The most commonly used voltage is 5V.
A drawing is also included with the timing results for a burst of 5 balls. You have to take into account that sometimes the speed can be quite high (pulses about 25 msec). You may need to sharpen the brake zone ( adjusts the input so that the ball can just pass) if your controller cannot handle this speed. This is the case for the TXT Controller Fischertechnik. I use my FPGA controller to read the pulses and it never has speed problems.
All parts are printed with the Flachforge Finder 3D printer. The filament used is PLA 1.7mm, 210 degree, Raft and Brim enabled, Infill 25%.

more than just blink. I added bits for a connector and regulating the power from 5v for the Atmega168 to 3.3v for LCD, accelerometer, etc.
I messed up the 3.3v voltage regulator and took a few tries bending the pins different ways before getting to work.
Voskhod 1 descent module, 1964
The three cosmonauts' couches inside Voskhod were only fitted with difficulty, making the crew crane their necks to see the instrument panels. With no space for a means of escape to be fitted, a retrorocket slowed the spacecraft as it returned to Earth, enabling the cosmnauts to remain on board for the entire mission.

creating a series of connected modules of different angles of twist from the same axis. The twist is only along the x-y parameter keeping the top and bottom section the same with similar spacing, demonstrating a twisted grid created with mass customization.
Twisted forms provide better solutions against eccentric and non uniform multi direction loads compared to the usually 3 dimensional x-y-z grid arranged buildings.
okay sorry for more tech stuff, i'm just writing all this out so i won't forget when the final presentation comes. gahhh
Turns the trusty workhorse "283 into a useful strobist tool. The only downside is that since its just a potentiometer, there are no positive clicks for each setting, so you don't really know if that power level is what you're getting. But its pretty close. It also allows adjustment down to 1/64th power, better than the current 285 HV. "

I got a 283 with AC adapter and the VP-1 module with some Canon film gear. Entire manual scanned here.
Vintage passenger service modules , called APAX, from passenger aircraft. These modules are located under the seats and provide music and other passenger services, as steward call feature.
Small steering module
creation date : September, 2009
Strength of the suspension can be adjusted by the twisting number of the rubber belt.

Edited Apollo 11 image of the Lunar Module Eagle from a distance. (I hesitate to guess the distance given the lack of atmosphere.)

Assembling 2 different modules to generate more variations. The combination is just endless and I should have ended this series...but I just cannot resists adding a few more.
All the modules are folded from 7.5cm Korean Duo-coloured squares. It is also possible to assemble up to 6 different modules but then the pattern generated will not be symmetrically pleasing.
The photo diagrams are posted at my Flickr "Folding Instructions" set - www.flickr.com/photos/61236172@N08/sets/72157629691542210/
The photo diagrams are also posted at my new website, kindly hosted by Nick Robinson - www.nickrobinson.info/clients/owrigami/show_diagram.php?d...
I shall leave it to you to mix and match to generate your own patterns.

N scale town module -- various kits
The last minute roundabout idea which turned out surprisingly well.
I'll let you ponder over how this was made.
What to do with your old Entertainment Books? Make a Sonobe module out of them of course! The paper is stiff enough to stay sturdy but is still able to be folded. The coupons are nearly square (just a little trimming required) and there's a variety of colours. I'm still planning what to do with the gold section.
Donations of your old Entertainment Books (who uses all their vouchers anyway?) happily accepted! If only I'd thought of doing this sooner I would have had years worth of books to use as materials.
This model was based on a Sonobe Module Variation.
