I got a new 5' x 7' Impact collapsible backdrop. It's black on one side and white on the other. And it's HUGE!
Scale-A-Week: 29 October 2017
218 pounds
15-1/2 stone
There's a slight discrepancy between the digital "pounds" scale and the mechanical "stone" scale. This could be a result of uneven spots in the floor, or the mechanical scale being in need of cleaning and lubricating.
I'm looking for another mechanical scale that measures in stone, because this one, which I've had for nearly twenty years, is rusty and is getting temperamental, but the only examples I can find are from sellers in the UK, and shipping costs will be astronomical.
Rare, coastal (?) dove. Photo was taken through a shipping dock's chain-link fence where public access was not allowed.

Small vehicles or big pots?
A train is burning underground and the state has sent its violence organixations to hunt terrorists.
I've just been doing a clean up of my hard-drive, getting rid of old photos, and came across this photo of a female Adder. I love the diamond pattern of an Adder's scales on it's back and this particular female had very striking colours and markings.
Very Australian looking model railway in HO Scale that was on display at the museum.

This is a 1:100 scale model of a Commercial Space Station, which we were commissioned to build in 2019. The model features a variety of customized modules, stowage facilities, an airlock, an observatory, a robotic arm and a main solar array. The model is accompanied with replicas of the SpaceX Dragon and Boeing CST-100 supply ships. Later we are going to add to this set a replica of the SpaceX Dragon 2 as well. The model also includes several posed astronaut figurines, designed and customized for us by Mr. Max Grueter.
The model was designed in 3D software, produced by rapid prototyping and manually assembled, painted and decorated.
In this model we implemented the features and technics developed for our models of ISS, which we were building and perfecting since 2008. The model has reliable internal reinforcement system, holding the modules together. Most vulnerable elements are produced from durable materials – metal and nylon. Selected components and supply ships’ replicas have embedded magnets, allowing to reconfigure the station and exercise various docking schemes. The model is mounted with support poles on a black painted base.
The model is designed to be partially disassembled during transport. It is packed in a Pelican heavy duty transit case and can be fast and easily assembled for presentation.
Imperial Japanese Navy Aircraft-Carrier Zuikaku - Nichimo 1:500 scale model kit made in the 70s.
Using my pinnacle level of model making skill, transforming this 30 years old crappy model into this.
I am about to release my self-publication about making this model in EBay.
This scale and brick were sitting on a stand that was supposed to offer roasted chestnuts to the patrons on our Main Street holidays events. At Thanksgiving, the word chestnut was covered with a sign that said Wassail. I still found this scene attractive, in a real old skool kinda way. The Leica R4 and Elmar-R 100mm macro lens with HP5+ made for a nice image.

In 1865, German immigrants Meyer Hirsch and Jacob Schwabacher started The American Cutlery Company. Around the turn of the century they introduced a line of scales known as the American Family Scale. Their scale soon became the leading brand of household scale in the country. Around 1928 it was decided to spin of the scale line and the American Scale Company was born. The scale sold for 83 cents in 1902 and by 1924 the Sears Catalog had it listed for $2.65. The example above is known as the 1906 model. Often being mistaken for the date of manufacture it is one of the first "retro" items being modeled after the scale version sold in 1906. The scale above actually dates from the mid 40's to mid 50's.
