KITE Module
KITE derives its name from Kiloelectron volt Ion Temperature Experiment. It was used to determine the temperature produced by the nuclear test device at particular points. The KITE module is an evacuated chamber that forms part of the line of sight. Several KITES were used in each nuclear test, positioned at different points in the rack. The KITE signals were transmitted uphole on thick coaxial cables and recorded either in U.S. or U.K. trailers.

1x Steering column extension rod.
On the bottom right you can see the change in design for the E36 UJ so the dowel now goes into the extension rather than into the UJ.
Need to give it a coat of paint before installing
These modules are used to store the cotton until it can be ginned. These took the place of what were called cotton trailers. My first memory of cotton picking was with a gunny sack. The adults used a long cloth bag that could hold a couple hundred pounds of cotton. It was weighed and put into a cotton trailer, a person or two would be in the trailer tromping cotton to get as much as possible into the trailer. Then it would be taken to the gin. As for mechanical cotton pickers. In 1952 my Dad, Uncle Babe and I went to Arvin to pick up a cotton picker. I can remember riding the cotton picker with my uncle to his ranch on White Lane.
I decided to buy a couple of flowers as the ones in the garden are pretty wind battered at the moment. Stuck it in a wine bottle and moved it around the garden to get the backgrounds I wanted. The background to this one is a hanging basket. I dont believe I will do anymore flowers and will choose from what I've done and then concentrate on the Final Project.
Flash compensation was - 2 EV and a tripod was used.

It works for speaker and headphones no problem. No battery to test the charge function but it works good on a 5V USB power supply.
Actually a hell of a lot easier to use then I expected.
Will have to 3D print a case for it next.
Not really sure of the Mode button but it seems to kill the sound.
No Power button which is kinda odd but one could be added to the battery I suppose.
these tiny origami polyhedra were each created from 30 composite modules folded from paper between 12mm and 20mm squared.
Bulbous plates lined up, squared and tacked up for staggered intermittent welds, commonly referred to as "stitches"
