The view from the top of the St. Nicholas coal breaker in Mahanoy City looking back towards the power house, warming shed, and unloading shed. This is the conveyer which carried coal from the unloading shed up to the top of the breaker where the processing started.
The Breakers
.
Last month a spent a few days in Newport, Rhode Island and visited two of the mansions built during the Gilded Age. Here are six outside shots from the first one we toured.
"Built for Cornelius Vanderbilt II, The Breakers (1893-1895), is the grandest of Newport's summer “cottages” and a symbol of the Vanderbilt family's social and financial preeminence in turn-of-the-century America. In 1893, Mr. Vanderbilt and his wife Alice commissioned Richard Morris Hunt to design a house that would replace one on the same property that was destroyed by a fire in November of 1892."

The Breakers is a Vanderbilt mansion located on Ochre Point Avenue, Newport, Rhode Island, United States on the Atlantic Ocean. It is a National Historic Landmark, a contributing property to the Bellevue Avenue Historic District, and is owned and operated by the Preservation Society of Newport County.
The Breakers was built as the Newport summer home of Cornelius Vanderbilt II, a member of the wealthy United States Vanderbilt family. Designed by renowned architect Richard Morris Hunt and with interior decoration by Jules Allard and Sons and Ogden Codman, Jr., the 70-room mansion boasts approximately 65,000 sq ft (6,000 m2). of living space. The home was constructed between 1893 and 1895 at a cost of more than $7 million (approximately $150 million in today's dollars adjusted for inflation). The Ochre Point Avenue entrance is marked by sculpted iron gates and 30-foot (9.1 m) high walkway gates are part of a 12-foot-high limestone and iron fence that borders the property on all but the ocean side. The 250' x 120' dimensions of the five-story mansion are aligned symmetrically around a central Great Hall.
Part of a 13-acre (53,000 m²) estate on the seagirt cliffs of Newport, it sits in a commanding position that faces east overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.
If you're going to make an ice breaker, then this is what is should look like!

I guess you could call this a "sight reading" of Joe Murphy's Sunder frame design. I don't use stud.io so I basically eyeballed it and made a different leg design.

A breaker is a powerful percussion hammer fitted to an excavator for demolishing concrete structures or rocks. It is powered by an auxiliary hydraulic system from the excavator, which is fitted with a foot-operated valve for this purpose. Additionally, demolition crews employ the hoe ram for jobs too large for jackhammering or areas where blasting is not possible due to safety or environmental issues.Breakers are often referred to as “hammers”, “peckers”, “hoe rams” or “hoe rammers.” These terms are popular and commonly used amongst construction/demolition workers.http://worthrobomax.com/hydraulic-rock-breaker/
Congratulations to our most recent Breakers & Beyond winner, Aren Pace. Aren recently hiked up Half Dome in Yosemite while sporting her B2B shirt!
I'm getting toward the end of my Saint Nicholas Coal Breaker pictures.
These were the benches from the Coal Breaker, where the workers would place their boots before entering the showers. It still has boots, as you can see, which adds a glimpse of the human footprint which once was common there and an extra eerie sense of humanity, as if it were used just yesterday.
went to the breakers mansion today with my lovely sister in newport, RI.
i took over 300 photos of the exterior of two mansions. i cannot wait to show you more of them! ;)
