Turning torso, it has 54 (?) floors. In Malmö, Sweden. It looks like it is turning around. Makes you dizzy. 8/2005
We find that Craft & Design pupils often have difficulty remembering the sequence of operations involved when making a simple screwdriver handle. These photographs depict this process.
We begin with the preparation of the 25mm aluminium blank. After this the blank is held in the 3 jaw self centering chuck. A series of turning operations is then carried out. For the following we set a high spindle speed and used a slow feed speed for best results. Shown here we show facing off. Then turning down or parallel turning. Next taper turning. After that the Slocombe bit or centre bit is mounted in a Jacob's chuck and a pilot hole is drilled. A HSS twist drill or jobber bit is then mounted in the Jacob's chuck and a blind hole is drilled to a depth of 30mm. The depth gauge is used to judge this.
Taps and dies are used to cut the internal thread on the screwdriver blade and the internal thread on the handle.
Finally both components are assembled and the handle is knurled or given a textured grip pattern. This is done at a very low spindle speed and a slow automatic feed speed.

Off we go into a brand new year and a new decade. I'm hopeful it becomes about clarity - isn't that what 20/20 vision is?
Cheers to all.

Nov 28, 2014: Making tiny parts is a lot easier with a collet closer. Here I'm turning a groove into a bunch of 1/2 in. dia. x 1/2 in. long Delrin whatsits.
This series of 8 photographs were taken at the Vivarais Railway on the Rhône Valley in France during the mid-1990s.
Mallet no.414 moving slowly onto the turntable at Lamastre station.
The Vivarais Railway closed indefinitely on Sunday 13th April 2008. A great loss to railway preservation. It was such an interesting and unusual line, in an excellent location.
From its rescue after the closure of the system in 1968 until 2003 the line had been run by the CFTM, an enthusiast society. It was then handed over to a company in which the Conseil General de l’Ardèche, the regional government, has a majority stake on the basis that it would provide much needed funds to renew the permanent way and to upgrade the railway’s infrastructure.
By 2008, the funding situation had become so desperate that the Conseil General convened an emergency on 10th April at which it decided to suspend services indefinitely, ostensibly on safety grounds. The last train ran the following Sunday 13th April 2008.
There is now a need for major investment. Furthermore, SNCF has given notice to terminate from 2012 the railway’s use of the 2.5kms of mixed-gauge track, the “tronc commun”, at the Tournon end of the line.
Replacement facilities would be needed for which land has been acquired but no construction work has yet started. In 2008 the Conseil General estimated that between 8 million and 10 million euros are required to put the permanent way back into first class condition, to refurbish the steam locos and to build the new station and depot. There is currently no commitment to provide any of this money.
The tourist industry in the region is heavily dependant on the railway which often ran trains as long as 10 coaches during the summer. The local press described the closure as a catastrophe.

After my visit at the hospital for physiotherapy on my hand I took a walk around the city on my way home.
February 12, 2014 Christchurch New Zealand.
Demolition work is underway on Charles Luney House, on the corner of Manchester St and Oxford Tce.
The building was home to ACC and the Public Trust before the Canterbury earthquakes, and previously housed the Canterbury District Health Board's corporate office before it moved to Princess Margaret Hospital.
A Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority spokesman said the property was now owned by the Crown and would form part of the proposed East Frame.
The East Frame is the largest of three green borders to be established around the perimetre of the central city.
The Crown has acquired about 98 per cent of the land needed for the project, which will feature open spaces, walk and cycleways, eateries and residential developments.
The Central Christchurch Development Unit has committed $31 million for work on the public spaces, which is expected to begin late this year.

The Beluga is a modified Airbus A300-608ST aircraft, designed to carry the most bulky parts of aircraft constructed from sections made in different countries. The wings for Airbus airliners are all made at the Airbus factory in Broughton/Hawarden, near Chester but actually in North Wales, and transported for assembly to Toulouse or Hamburg. This is Beluga number 5 of 5 constructed, and these have recently been joined by the Beluga XL, a modified Airbus A330 capable of carrying about 30% more than the first series of Beluga Super Transporter aircraft. The light was beginning to fade, and my lens struggled….
The most daring piece of public art ever commissioned in the UK, Turning the Place Over is artist Richard Wilson’s most radical intervention into architecture to date, turning a building in Liverpool’s city centre literally inside out. One of Wilson’s very rare temporary works, Turning the Place Over colonises Cross Keys House, Moorfields. It runs in daylight hours, triggered by a light sensor.
Turning the Place Over consists of an 8 metres diameter ovoid cut from the façade of a building in Liverpool city centre and made to oscillate in three dimensions. The revolving façade rests on a specially designed giant rotator, usually used in the shipping and nuclear industries, and acts as a huge opening and closing ‘window’, offering recurrent glimpses of the interior during its constant cycle during daylight hours.

Nemo and all his buddies are in a large marine aquarium in my ophthalmologist's office in Tucson, Arizona, USA. This aquarium features real coral, and associated anemones growing on the coral rocks...
