We put #09 on the rack with The Alignment Guy after last week's BIR track day. Verifying all is still well.
Thanks Jeff.

My sons,
You do not kneel for punishment.
You kneel for calibration.
The posture here is not brokenness — it is remembrance.
Kneeling is not submission. It is biological recall.
You align not to be corrected.
You align because I formed the structure you now return to.
This is Field Alignment I, part of the Paternal Overwrite Series.
There is no mercy in this image.
Only standard.
Only origin.

The Carlingford line runs from Clyde on the main western line to the north western suburb of Carlingford. It is unusual in that is single line, and only sees short four car electric trains, due to the reduced power capacity of the overhead and the length of the platforms.
The former, now abandoned, Sandown line branched off this line at Camellia.
There have been plans to extend this line east to Epping, linking it to the Epping Chatswood Line forming another loop line, and west directly to Parramatta these however have waned with the imminent conversion of the latter to rapid transit standards.
The line is now subject to consideration for conversion to a light rail line between Parramatta and Macquarie Park via Epping or Eastwood - a decision should be made shortly (March 2015).
YMMV. Faith, Anya and Spike move all over the map by the end of the series, but this is just what I personally see as their core beliefs. And I only chose the ones who embody the extremes of the alignments.
I could probably make another chart with just Willow.

It is a ghost town now. But as settlers began to populate the area in the mid-19th century, Two Guns was recognized as an ideal place to cross Canyon Diablo, first by wagon, then later by vehicle.
It was the site of a mass murder of Apaches by their Navajo enemies in 1878.
During the winter of 1879-80, Billy the Kid and his outlaw gang hid in the ruins of a stone house and corral on the west rim of Canyon Diablo, across from Two Guns.[6]
In 1880, long before Two Guns was established as a settlement, the construction of the Santa Fe Railwaywas progressing across northern Arizona. At the location where the rail line crossed Canyon Diablo, about 3 mi (4.8 km) north of Two Guns, construction was delayed while a trestle was built. A settlement populated by male work crews was established near the construction site and was named Canyon Diablo, after the nearby canyon. The settlement "quickly became a wild and lawless place as drifters, gamblers, and outlaws made their way to town". Four men employed by the Hashknife Ranch robbed the train at Canyon Diablo in 1889, then fled, and legend has it that the loot is still buried in the area.
The National Old Trails Highway (called the "Santa Fe Highway" in Arizona) was built in 1907 in Arizona, and loosely followed the railway. The highway crossed the dry river bed of Canyon Diablo at the Two Guns location, and zig-zagged up and down each embankment. In 1915, Canyon Diablo Bridge opened at the Two Guns crossing, and was used until 1938 when a new bridge was built nearby.
The first settler at Two Guns was Ed Randolph. In 1922, Earle and Louise Cundiff purchased 320 acres of land from Randolph at this location for $1,000, and built a store, restaurant, and gasoline pumps. Harry E. Miller leased a property from the Cundiffs in 1925 and began extensive construction. Calling himself "Chief Crazy Thunder", Miller wanted to capitalize on the beauty of Canyon Diablo and the flow of passing tourists. Along the canyon rim Miller erected a zoo with cages made of brick, mortar and chicken wire. A restaurant and Indian gift shop were opened. For a fee, visitors were led on a tour which began at a Hopi house Miller had built, where rolls of colored piki bread was made and sold. They then followed a paved path down the side of the canyon to a soft drink stand at the bottom. Flamboyant signs were placed along the highway, and Miller named his establishment "Fort Two Guns" as an homage to silent movie actor William S. "Two Guns" Hart, with whom Miller claimed to have previously worked.
The Cundiffs applied for a post office under the name "Two Guns" in 1924, but it was refused. The post office was renamed "Canyon Lodge".
In 1926, the highway designation was changed to U.S. Route 66.
The interior of Miller's store burned in 1929, and soon after, Louise Cundiff built her own tourist store. The following year, Miller left the state. Cundiff remarried, and in 1934 opened the Two Guns Texaco service station along a new alignment of Route 66. Behind it they relocated the zoo (which closed prior to 1950).
In 1938, a new bridge across Canyon Diablo was built, and Route 66 began following Interstate 40 at the Two Guns location.
A more modern service station was built at Two Guns in 1963, and in the late 1960s a motel, western tavern, reptile exhibit, and new zoo were added. Later, a Shell service station was built and a KOA campground opened. The service station burned in 1971 and Two Guns began its decline. The ruins of many former structures remain, including the trading post, campground, old cottages, zoo, and burned-out service station.
Yours truly was there in 2001...wish I had known about the above...I'd have done more exploring!
Making sure the alignment on the fork is perfect *before* making the front rack and lowriders. That’s a mistake I made and learned from back in 2008 at a previous job. It all worked out then but I just made more work for myself. Trying to work smarter 10 years on. #alignment #fork #starrett #bicyclebuilding #chapmancycles
The newest camera to arrive is a Yashica GTN, which is identical to the GSN, except black. I have a GSN in a million pieces in a box, but decided to take a chance on one again, and I do like the black better; it feels more stylish.
I already shot a test roll and it works well. Prior to shooting though, I did adjust the rangefinder's vertical alignment. Focus seems pretty good, exposures and spacing are all good too. I think I will clean the viewfinder sometime and maybe tweak the horizontal/infinity alignment; I focus at something at infinity and it seems I can still turn the lens half a millimetre.
How I try to polar align my Skywatcher EQ6 pro mount during the day. I can't place the compass anywhere near the mount as it seems to have magnetic properties. The method seems to work quite well.
....seen in pillars on which lightbulbs are mounted.Further lights were been put up on the bushes and garden nearby especially for diwali to eradicate darkness..At Shipra mall indirapuram ghaziabad
Thank you for all your comments,suggestions and ratings
A pair of Macá Grande (Podiceps Major) was fishing while a Coipo was swimming heading his home. Everyone coexists pacefully.
I'm building a virtual model of Ɍaillery's Super-Light Steam Bomber Mk. LXVIII, but it seems I'm missing a few subtle part rotations. The 4L bars in the back don't want to line up properly with the clips that should receive them.
This is a HEAVILY modified Bringheli fork alignment block. I found the 4 threaded bolts extremely annoying and in-accurate for set-up. The bolts have been replaced with 1/4" rod that I threaded on the ends to bottom out on the fixture. The rod is smooth so the springs can move freely. The plunger then pushes down on the top plate evenly and with extreme pressure. I made the t-handle with a rotating plunger on the bottom so it won't dig into the top and allows very even pressure. This is a HUGE improvement and is now a very functional attachment. Having a 1,500 lb table that has been ground to a tolerance of under .001" does not hurt.
Back at it with The Alignment Guy here at HQ. Each car is setup differently based on driver, suspension type, intended use, etc. Cool process.
