I've been meaning to do a still life shot of these boxes for some time. I set them in front of my computer monitor, with a white screen.
The RAM is at NewEgg: www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231568
building computer.
GSkill RipJaws X DDR3 RAM, box.
Goliath.
upstairs, Clint and Carolyn's house, Alexandria, Virginia.
November 7, 2012.
... Read my blog at ClintJCL.wordpress.com
... Read Carolyn's blog at CarolynCASL.wordpress.com
BACKSTORY: Carolyn decided now that Clint had a job, the time had come to replace her computer of 9 years, Magic. So, she started spec'ing out computer parts for a new computer that would become Goliath.
Carolyn built Magic in 2003 when Clint got her a motherboard for Christmas. She kept her old computer, Mist, which as far as we know, is still alive to this day (and was originally a 286, then a 486, then a Pentium 3). Anyway, Magic had tried to die a couple of years ago, but since Clint didn't have a job at the time, we decided it was best to repair rather than buying a whole new computer back then. So Carolyn found an exact replica of Magic's motherboard on Ebay and replaced the motherboard and the power supply. Magic has been limping along ever since.
But now it is time for Goliath. Goliath came into being at the beginning of November and was up and running by November 13th.
SPECS:
CASE: Antec Twelve Hundred V3 Black Steel ATX Full Tower Unbeatable Gaming Case ($160) (**10** frickin' drive bays!).
CPU: Intel Core i7 (i7-3770) Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.9GHz Turbo) Quad-Core (LGA1155 socket, 4 cores, 8MB cache, 77W power consumption) ($300). CPUBenchmark score: 9480. For comparison, Clint's computer Hades that everyone watches movies on only rates 4163 (and 1727 before upgrade).
POWER SUPPLY: Corsair Enthusiast Series CMPSU-850TX (850W) ($140) (5yr warranty)
MOTHERBOARD: ASRock Z77 Extreme6 ($180). 8 SATA ports! Onboard optical digital audio out so her computer is backup for playing music. Onboard video better than my pre-upgrade videocard (Radeon x1950) that Clint tried to give her, so her computer is backup for playing video. (However, the onboard video can only mine at 100MH/s, so it is useless for cryptocurrency mining.) Onboard network.
RAM: 16GB: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series (2x8GB, 240-Pin) ($86) (CAS 9-9-9-9)
HARDDRIVE: SSD: 128G: Crucial M4 ($103) (3yr warranty). Plus all the drives that used to be in MAGIC, before MAGIC crashed.
TOTAL COST: $969.
Ultimately it ended up with a coupld of SATA controller cards, as well as a bluray-burner. We've now burned over 200 blurays.
In other news, Clint decided to get a CPU for Magic for Carolyn's birthday, and she ended up killing Magic trying to install it. It was a mistake to try to mess with the delicate balance that was Magic. Magic died 2 days before its 10-year anniversary. Poor Magic! But it was a good thing Carolyn had already gotten a new computer before Magic decided to kick the bucket.
A run-down of all parts in my new computer, with links to buy them, can be found here: carolyncasl.wordpress.com/2012/10/24/the-new-computer/
Decided the other day to work on other things, but I have this one hanging around....
Crease pattern available.
4small boxes covered and lined with dyed embroidered paper. my original design inspired by a small christmas tree decoration from my childhood in the nineteen fifities.
I tried to gather all my new animations, which I made for my movie "Bleed me dry" in a new animation box. Here is 10 new animations. Enjoy!

Modern living. Grand Canal Square. Dublin.
"And the people in the houses
All went to the university,
Where they were put in boxes
And they came out all the same,
And there's doctors and lawyers,
And business executives,
And they're all made out of ticky tacky
And they all look just the same"
The store at Westgate Mall offers blind boxes, soft toys, block toys, die-cast cars, and trading card games.
Our second box of "misfit produce" has arrived! This isn't the most artistic photo, but it shows all the contents. We found the most interesting item this time to be sunchokes, also known as Jerusalem artichokes. We'd never heard of them!
After a quick internet search, we cut them up, roasted them all, and ate them as we watched Netflix. Delicious!

This is a mini steamer for the microwave that I picked up at Daiso. It's sold as a steamer for meat buns, but it's just the right size for steaming small amounts of vegetables or dumplings for lunch -- speeds up cook time 50%. You put a tablespoon of water in the bottom, replace the steam tray on the bottom, put the veggies in, then cover (aligning the steam holes to allow venting). Nuke for 1-2 minutes and let it stand for a couple of minutes afterward to steam. It can also be used for storage if you twist the lid so that the steam release holes are not aligned.

Box-O-Ranch in the eastern portion of the Soda Mountain Wilderness. The Omnibus Public Lands Management Act of 2009, Public Law No. 111-011, Section 1405, designated 24,100 acres of the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument as wilderness. The Soda Mountain Wilderness encompasses the rich biological and geological diversity in the mountains southeast of Ashland, Oregon. The new wilderness lies on the south side of the Medford District. The heart of the wilderness is the 5,720-foot high Boccard Point where the great basin meets three mountain ranges. The older Klamath Range comes up from the south while the much younger Siskiyou Range extends from the west. Jutting up from the north is the very young Cascade Range.
Additional information about the Soda Mountain Wilderness, and all the other BLM Wilderness areas in Oregon/Washington, is available online at:
I purchased this file on svgcuts. It used a lot of card stock, but was simple enough to make. I used it for the Family Sweets Jar I made (see previous pictures), which is pretty heavy and delicate, so I had to add some cardboard on the bottom for support. Finished box with gift inside is about 9.5" cubed.

The new driver's seat box. The good original top half of 428 original seat box was cut away after carful measuring. A few years ago I bought a new old stock dodge driver's seat box. It seemed a crime to be cutting this lovely new part but 428 original seat box was rotten around the bottom. So the new part was measured up and cut down to fit. 428 Original top which was modified to take the Chapmans driver's seat mechanism was fitted over the new Dodge seat box. The now needs to be clamped up and welded before being handed to Graham for a final clean and paint.
From square of Kraft paper.
Same as this, rotated 22.5°.
Also a cousin of Lai Chen-Hsiang box.
The compass rose tato which this box is built on had been discovered before by czech folder Hana Šindelářová in 2000 and diagramed by František Grebeníček. Get it on this page (scroll down to ozdoby). Once you've got the tato, add one octagon for the base, one for the top, throw 16 vertical pleats in the mix , done!
Exhibit A
What's it called when you hold something in your hand and relive whatever experience that thing symbolizes? Right: weird.
I have something I call a "gross things box." And it's filled with what most people think are gross things. Maybe it's that teeth don't belong outside your head once you've grown up, and I have my grandparents' dentures, my four wisdom teeth, a broken tooth, and a broken crown.
I've saved a pad from one of my dogs and three claws. I have ten staples from back surgery and the thumbnail from the time I sliced off the tip of my thumb with a mat knife (17 stitches to sew it back on). That thing smiling behind the stitches and in front of the dentures? That's my daughter's umbilical cord. It turns into a rock. I've heard some people make jewelry with it.
I bet you're sorry you didn't save some of these things.
I bet you wonder why I did. I wish I could tell you.
But I wrote a poem about it once, and it was published by Junk: a literary fix.
Quiescence
she and I will pour with nonchalance the contents of this marble box: three dog whiskers, the fang of a tarantula, her dried umbilical cord, pinched and blue like a stone, the orange feather of a friend’s fancy bird, grammy’s shimmering silver bridge, my own four wisdom teeth, and a few good misspelled fortunes, delighting in your awkward squirm as something animal rolls across the ripples in the couch and touches your naked thigh.
she saved the cord! you’ll say to them later, as if we are somehow broken, this well-practiced list your new soliloquy against a mother and her girl, but we are all tethered to our treasures, and who’s to judge the things we save: the care with which you dig the dahlia corms and tuck them in a burlap sack, the flowers that you paralyze in books, the seeds you squeeze in envelopes. who’s to judge a box of lonely things we couldn’t bring ourselves to lose?
