Title: Scales, balance
Description: Balance and weights set. This set belonged to Edouard Cafler. The set is contained in a wooden box with rounded corners. The box has two metal hook latches at the front of the box. The interior of the box contains the balance set, which consists of a metal balance beam with a dial at the centre, and a suspension ring at the top. Attached with green cord to either end of the balance are two brass dishes. There are compartments in the base of the box which contains the balance, and also a set of 14 brass weights ranging from 1 gram to 200 grams. There are complementary compartments in the top of the box to hold the weights in place. Handwritten on the underside of the lid of the box is a list of conversions from grammes to pounds and ounces.

To give some idea about the measures of the original paintings. From the archives.
Varying from 50x50 cm to 100x100 cm
I took this picture to give a sense of scale to the picture of my yarn stash. The bed has an American full size mattress.

Pictures from the sheep market outside Marjane, a chain grocery store in Rabat. Each family buys one sheep to have ritually slaughtered on the first day of Eid al-Adha, which was on December 1st this year in Morocco. Sheep are sold by weight; these ones seemed to average about $230. Here a sheep identified by an interested customer has been placed in the blue bucket and then on to the scale to be weighed and priced.
I've been needing a coal hopper unit train to serve the coke ovens (that don't exist yet) and I've found one. Yes they are trix longitudinal hoppers, got these five for $30 bucks on ebay.
Lots of potential for sliding through this section. Luckily no falling rocks from above during the entire traverse.
