The clamping component is a steel column with a pressure pad base, and a long spring loaded rod through the column. The rod is actuated at the top end with an eccentric cam lever which pulls up on the rod. The opposite end of the rod has a steel rectangular component which is intended to be angled in the sliding table t-slot, thus providing the gripping function to secure the steel column to the sliding table.
I have mixed feelings about this steel rectangular component since it has no softer material on the face to prevent chewing up the underside of the aluminum sliding table t-slot. Care must be taken in adjusting the clamping force to ensure it doesn't damage the upper inside edge of the sliding table t-slot.
I'd like to be able to keep the ability of the gun to break down, but not sure if I'll have time to engineer that into the design
here's our first attempt at an overview of junto philosophy and components. still needs some unpacking. comments/suggestions welcome!

I'm not sure what it is, but I'm not happy with this photo. There's something not quite there and I can't figure out what. It's good enough to post I guess.
For those of you who are interested in the 'bits', here are a selection of the key parts.
Not a complete rundown by covers the main mechanicals and load-bearing structures.
Car is 'drivable' with rear engine/transaxle, front tub and front drive assembly module.
Engine is an eight cylinder in 'W' format. That is two Vee-fours with their crankshafts gearedto a cenntral drive shaft.
Front and rear suspension are both by swing axles and sprung by torsion bars. The front suspension module plus straing into the front of the stressed tub and is completely self contained for load paths. The rear suspension feefs the loadparths into the engine assembly.
Not on the engine module the heat exchangers mounted in front of the rear wheels as well as behing the rear suspension module. The real Veyron has 13 heat exchangers in all. The detailing on the top of the engine asembly replicates the intake system and air-air intercoolers for the charge air.

Visit of the Frecce Tricolori Squadron at NATO E-3A Component Geilenkirchen/Germany, ETNG -----------------------------------------------
The Frecce Tricolori (Italian pronunciation: [ˈfrettʃe trikoˈloːri]; literally "Tricolour Arrows"), officially known as the 313° Gruppo Addestramento Acrobatico, Pattuglia Acrobatica Nazionale (PAN) Frecce Tricolori ("313th Acrobatic Training Group, National Aerobatic Team (PAN) Frecce Tricolori"), is the aerobatic demonstration team of the Italian Air Force. Based at Rivolto Air Base, province of Udine, it was created on 1 March 1961 as a permanent group for the training of Air Force pilots in air acrobatics.[1]
The Tricolour Arrows replaced unofficial teams that had been sponsored by various commands starting in the early 1930s.[2] The team flies the Aermacchi MB-339-A/PAN, a two-seat fighter-trainer craft capable of 898 km/h at sea level.[2][3] With ten aircraft, nine in close formation and a soloist, they are the world's largest acrobatics patrol, and their flight schedule, comprising about twenty acrobatics and about half an hour, made them the most famous in the world.[4] It is one of national symbols of Italy.
Formation
During the performances the formation of the acrobatic patrol is usually composed of 9 aircraft, called "Pony", each labeled with a number ranging from 1 to 10.[18][19] The name "Pony" was coined by the then Captain Zeno Tascio to remember the horse of Francesco Baracca[20] which is the sign of the 4th Wing, at the time 4th Airbase who was already preparing to take over the task PAN for the 1961. Depending on the needs of the Department, aircraft can also be 11 in total, thus including the figure of the acrobatic training manager:
Pony 0 - Commander
Pony 1 - Head of Formation
Pony 2 - 1° Left Domestique
Pony 3 - 1° Right Domestique
Pony 4 - 2° Left Domestique
Pony 5 - 2° Right Domestique
Pony 6 - 1° Tail light
Pony 7 - 3° Left Domestique
Pony 8 - 3° Right Domestique
Pony 9 - 2° Tail light
Pony 10 - Soloist
Pony 11 - Acrobatic Training Supervisor
Pony 12 - Pilot in Training
Pony 13 - Pilot in Training
Pony 14 - Pilot in Training
Pony 15 - Pilot in Training
Pony 16 - Pilot in Training

Frecce Tricolori (italienisch für Dreifarbige Pfeile) sind eine Kunstflugstaffel der italienischen Luftwaffe, die 1961 als 313º Gruppo Addestramento Acrobatico aufgestellt wurde. Die Staffel ist auf dem Militärflugplatz Rivolto bei Udine stationiert und erhielt am 1. Juli 1961 den heutigen Namen: 313º Gruppo Addestramento Acrobatico - Pattuglia Acrobatica Nazionale (PAN) “Frecce Tricolori”.
Der Ursprung des Kunstflugteams reicht bis in die 1920er Jahre zurück. Bei einem Besuch in Großbritannien hatten einige hohe Fliegeroffiziere die Anfänge des Formationskunstflugs kennengelernt. Der Befehl zur Gründung einer Kunstflugstaffel ging an Oberst Rino Corso Fougier in Udine. Er gilt als Vater des italienischen Formationskunstflugs und prägte maßgeblich den Ausbildungsstandard der Militärpiloten.
Die erste Fünfer-Kunstflugstaffel seines 1. Geschwaders (1º Stormo) war in Campoformido stationiert. Die erste Staffel erschien am 8. Juni 1930 bei der 1ª Giornata Aerea dell’Ala in Rom als offizieller Repräsentant der italienischen Luftwaffe.[1] In dieser Geburtsstunde zeigten sie mit sieben Jagddoppeldeckern vom Typ Fiat CR.20 ihr erstes Programm. Die 2ª Giornata Aerea dell’Ala 1932 zeigte mit Doppeldeckern vom Typ Breda Ba.19 ihr Programm. 1936 erhielten die „Frecce“ die Fiat CR.32.
Nach der Unterbrechung durch den Zweiten Weltkrieg begannen sie erneut mit Düsenflugzeugen das Formationskunstflugtraining. Die Teams Cavallino Rampante („Aufbäumendes Pferdchen“), Getti Tonanti („Donnernde Jets“), Tigri Bianche („Weiße Tiger“), Lancieri Neri („Schwarze Lanzenreiter“) und die Diavoli Rossi („Rote Teufel“) wurden bekannt.
Die erste wirkliche italienische Kunstflugstaffel wurde vom 4º Stormo aufgestellt. Als erste Einheit mit den Doppelrumpfjägern de Havilland D.H.100F.B.52 bildeten die Piloten des Geschwaders 1954 das erste italienische Kunstflug-Jet-Team mit dem Namen „Cavallino Rampante“. Mit der Republic F-84G starteten die „Getti Tonanti“ als Nachfolger der Staffel „Cavallino Rampante“. Der Fliegerfilm I quattro del getto tonante („Die vier donnernden Jets“) wurde mit dem Team gedreht. Die 51ª Aerobrigata übernahm 1955 mit dem Team „Tigri Bianche“ die Funktion der offiziellen Kunstflugstaffel der italienischen Luftwaffe, geflogen mit F84G Thunderjets. 1956 flog wieder das 4° Stormo mit neuen Canadair F-86 Sabre Mk4[2]. Das 6° Stormo flog als „rote Teufel“ („Diavoli Rossi“) die Republic F84F Thunderstreaks erstmals am 19. Mai 1957 auf dem Flughafen Turin-Caselle. 1958 wurde die 2ª Aerobrigata mit dem Namen „Lancieri Neri“ aufgestellt. Die sechs Piloten flogen eine F-86 Sabre.
Das Generalstab der italienischen Luftwaffe entschloss sich Ende 1960, ein eigenes Kunstflugteam aufzubauen, das nur noch in der Nebenrolle als leichte Jagdbomberstaffel zur Verfügung stehen sollte. Mit dieser Aufgabe wurde die 313º Gruppo betraut.

If you can't dispose of your old kettle by taking the whole thing to a waste center, you can probably recycle much of it yourself. Carefully dismantle it and put the pieces with plastic recycling symbols in your recycling collection box. Save and reuse any useful bits like screws and springs. You'll find you throw relatively little in the trash - and you'll learn a lot about how things work.

Una storia d’amore, dolore e rabbia per una bellissima città del “mio” sud, Taranto
Oggi voglio raccontarvi una mia storia legata alla recente visita a Taranto, la “giovane Taranto antica”, come la chiamava Giuseppe Ungaretti.
La prima sensazione, scendendo dalla macchina, parcheggiata accanto alla palazzata dell’isola della città vecchia, è stata olfattiva: un odore persistente di zolfo e lo sguardo è andato subito alle famose ciminiere che, quasi tutte inattive durante il giorno, animano invece la sera di fumi e colore… non ho avuto la forza di scattare neanche una foto agli stabilimenti dell’ILVA, pur essendo una forte componente visiva della città, perché il pensiero andava alle tante, troppe persone di ogni età che hanno sofferto e soffrono le conseguenze di questa presenza ingombrante e velenosa.
Quindi, appassionati di storia, arte e architettura e curiosi di vedere e conoscere i luoghi nelle loro radici, io e Marco ci siamo subito inoltrati in un vicolo che si addentrava nel cuore antico della città. Ad ogni passo si coglieva la storia attraverso la visione di antichi palazzi dagli originali particolari architettonici e decorativi, ma, contemporaneamente, aumentava sia la percezione di abbandono, di degrado dei luoghi sia quel timore che inizi ad avvertire quando intorno a te, oltre al degrado, non vedi che qualche sparuto passante e non sai cosa aspettarti. Intanto vediamo la Chiesa di San Domenico, il Palazzo Arcivescovile e la Cattedrale di San Cataldo: bellissimi. Dopo essere anche stati inseguiti da due cani che facevano la guardia ad un cortile deserto, col cuore in gola abbiamo proseguito il nostro giro solitario. Continua sempre più la visione di palazzi spettrali, vuoti e diroccati, vicoli e palazzi con accessi murati, strutture di contenimento per evitare crolli che, come ho successivamente letto in rete, si sono succeduti anche negli ultimi anni privando non solo i tarantini, ma tutti noi di una parte di patrimonio storico e togliendo anche la vita ad alcune persone che vivevano in quei pressi (leggere gli “illuminanti” articoli corrieredelmezzogiorno.corriere.it/lecce/notizie/cronaca/... e www.siderlandia.it/2.0/index.php/se-taranto-vecchia-se-ne...). Commentiamo tra noi che se il centro città di Palermo, stupendo, ma con zone degradate e palazzi sventrati dalla seconda guerra mondiale e mai ricostruiti, ci era apparso “sgarrupato”, quello di Taranto purtroppo vive una condizione ben peggiore e condividiamo la medesima tristezza, la stessa sofferenza che troviamo sottolineata, aumentata da tanti graffiti il cui tema non appare certo ottimistico. Lo stile dei graffiti, dai colori e dall’iconografia, sembra proprio quello di “Cyop & Kaf”, impressione che avrà poi conferma cercando in rete (www.progettoalchimie.it/q-s-cyop-kaf/ e, a dispetto del nome del sito www.associazioneantigraffiti.it/2013/12/16/graffiti-e-dip... ), con i loro omini trafitti, resi minuscoli, impiccati o in procinto di farlo e disegnati spesso proprio su quei muri grigio cemento eretti per motivi di sicurezza sia per impedire di attraversare i vicoli dove le case sono crollate o stanno per farlo sia per chiudere i portali in modo da evitare anche l’accesso a quegli sciacalli che hanno già fatto razzia di beni contenuti nei palazzi antichi. Anche le vecchie porte arrugginite che chiudono l’accesso a edifici storici abbandonati e decadenti e le facciate di palazzi nascosti o affacciati sulle strade principali sono il materiale che fa da sfondo ai dipinti di “Cyop & Kaf” nella città vecchia di Taranto che, come i Quartieri Spagnoli di Napoli dove oltre 200 disegni dei due artisti sono apparsi per i vicoli e i bassi durante un periodo di tre anni, può diventare una sorta di galleria d’arte a cielo aperto. Documento tutto con i miei scatti frettolosi, ma provo dolore nel mettere a fuoco i graffiti ed il loro contesto. Vedere una città bellissima, piena di storia, una capitale della Magna Grecia, una città di quel sud a cui appartengono le mie radici siciliane mi provoca sempre un moto di dolore e di rabbia per l’indifferenza ed il silenzio generale, a livello nazionale intendo perché la rete mi ha fatto conoscere l’indignazione di cittadini, gruppi tarantini che si ribellano giustamente alla noncuranza ed all’indifferenza delle istituzioni, locali e non, anche tramite video come il documentario “Buongiorno Taranto” del regista salentino Paolo Pisanelli (il trailer potete vederlo qui: www.buongiornotaranto.it/web/promo.php; su facebook qui: www.facebook.com/BuongiornoTaranto).
Si sono fatte intanto le due e, iniziando ad avere un certo languore, cerchiamo un posto dove mangiare, ma è tutto serrato, non troviamo nulla. Proseguiamo allora verso il “mar piccolo” e, dopo esserci rifatti gli occhi con il restaurato palazzo dell’Università degli studi, con le colonne doriche del tempio di Poseidone, o forse di Diana, e con il castello Aragonese, arriviamo ad un bar. Beviamo qualcosa e chiediamo alla proprietaria del bar e ad un suo cliente se ci possono indicare un posto, una trattoria, una focacceria dove poter mangiare, ma la risposta è negativa. All’improvviso la signora ci propone una spaghettata con cozze cucinata da lei avendo già preparato il sugo per il marito. Ci guardiamo, il posto non ispirerebbe una grande fiducia nel risultato dell’offerta, ma, vista la spontaneità ed il calore della signora ed essendo noi privi di preconcetti e pronti sempre a provare nuove avventure, diciamo di si alla proposta. Ci accomodiamo quindi in una saletta del bar con televisore, del quale ci viene subito fornito gentilmente il telecomando, frigo grande a vista con bibite, pile di casse della tarantina birra Raffo, la “birra dei due mari”, che ordiniamo ovviamente, ed accompagnamento di chiacchiere con il cliente di cui sopra che ci racconta di lui che, con figli e nipoti, è l’unico dei suoi dieci fratelli a vivere ancora nella città vecchia perché il resto della famiglia si è sparpagliato tra la Puglia e l’Italia. Parliamo appunto della città vecchia manifestandogli le nostre considerazioni ed anche il nostro timore, essendo anche memori di com’era la situazione di Bari vecchia prima della “bonifica”, ristrutturazione e rivalutazione. In risposta riceviamo sia l’invito a farci da guida nella città vecchia sia la possibilità, girando da soli, di rispondere ad un eventuale malintenzionato di essere suoi amici, essendo la sua famiglia rispettata da tutti. Nel frattempo il figlio della signora, con due occhi scuri vispi e curiosi, apparecchia il nostro tavolo come può teneramente fare un bambino che fa suo un compito da adulto ed arriva una prima portata inaspettata, fettine di salame piccantello con formaggio saporito, seguita da una seconda altrettanto inaspettata, un appetitoso sautè di cozze. Arriva per ultimo il piatto originariamente proposto, una montagnola di spaghetti con un’infinità di cozze succulente. Che dire, ottimo è dire poco! Scopriamo quindi, dopo i nostri complimenti vivissimi alla signora, che lei ha lavorato per trent’anni nella ristorazione e che il suo sogno, purtroppo non avverato, era quello di aprire un ristorante. Un peccato davvero! Il marito, che nel frattempo era arrivato, scherza sul fatto di aver mangiato noi il sugo preparato per il suo pranzo e ci fornisce il suo numero di cellulare nel caso in cui volessimo tornare a gustare un piatto, un qualsiasi piatto ci venisse voglia di mangiare.
Come ho letto in un articolo di febbraio scorso sulla città vecchia che vi invito a leggere (corrieredelmezzogiorno.corriere.it/lecce/notizie/cronaca/...): “È un mondo a parte l’isola (la città vecchia). Una zona franca dove s’incontra la bellezza dell’ingenuità della gente, rimasta attaccata alle tradizioni e all’ospitalità, dove si assiste a scene di un’Italia povera e dimenticata, come quella descritta da Carlo Levi in Cristo si è fermato a Eboli, o il brutto delle favelas di Rio o di Scampia.”.
Ci guardiamo davvero soddisfatti, sorpresi e contenti di aver accettato l’invito. L’avventura, come quasi sempre è accaduto, ha avuto il lieto fine agognato permettendoci ancora una volta di conoscere l’essenza e non l’apparenza di persone semplici, ospitali e piene di calore… nui simm' 'ro Sud!
Un’ultima considerazione: come diceva Giulio Carlo Argan, “La questione del centro storico tarantino è una questione di importanza nazionale e non soltanto locale. Si tratta di conservare un complesso monumentale che interessa tutto il Paese e alla cui conservazione tutto il Paese deve concorrere.”. Chissà se qualcuno se ne ricorderà... prima o poi...

Hacker (hobbyist)
In home computing, a hacker is someone who modifies software or hardware of their own private computer system. It includes building, rebuilding, modifying, and creating software (software cracking, demoscene), electronic hardware (hardware hacking, overclocking, modding), either to make it better, faster, to give it added features or to make it do something it was not originally intended to do. Hacking in this sense originated around hobbyist circles discussing the MITS Altair at the homebrew computer club.
Hacker artists[edit]
See also: Fractal art, algorithmic art and interactive art
Hacker artists create art by hacking on technology as an artistic medium. This has extended the definition of the term and what it means to be a hacker. Such artists may work with graphics, computer hardware, sculpture, music and other audio, animation, video, software, simulations, mathematics, reactive sensory systems, text, poetry, literature, or any combination thereof.
Dartmouth College musician Larry Polansky states: "Technology and art are inextricably related. Many musicians, video artists, graphic artists, and even poets who work with technology—whether designing it or using it—consider themselves to be part of the 'hacker community.' Computer artists, like non-art hackers, often find themselves on society’s fringes, developing strange, innovative uses of existing technology. There is an empathetic relationship between those, for example, who design experimental music software and hackers who write communications freeware." [3]
Another description is offered by Jenny Marketou: "Hacker artists operate as culture hackers who manipulate existing techno-semiotic structures towards a different end, to get inside cultural systems on the net and make them do things they were never intended to do." [4]
A successful software and hardware hacker artist is Mark Lottor (mkl), who has created the 3-D light art projects entitled the Cubatron, and the Big Round Cubatron. This art is made using custom computer technology, with specially designed circuit boards and programming for microprocessor chips to manipulate the LED lights.
Don Hopkins is a software hacker artist well known for his artistic cellular automata. This art, created by a cellular automata computer program, generates objects which randomly bump into each other and in turn create more objects and designs, similar to a lava lamp, except that the parts change color and form through interaction. Says Hopkins, "Cellular automata are simple rules that are applied to a grid of cells, or the pixel values of an image. The same rule is applied to every cell, to determine its next state, based on the previous state of that cell and its neighboring cells. There are many interesting cellular automata rules, and they all look very different, with amazing animated dynamic effects. 'Life' is a widely known cellular automata rule, but many other lesser known rules are much more interesting."
Some hacker artists create art by writing computer code, and others, by developing hardware. Some create with existing software tools such as Adobe Photoshop or GIMP.
The creative process of hacker artists can be more abstract than artists using non-technological media. For example, mathematicians have produced visually stunning graphic presentations of fractals, which hackers have further enhanced, often producing detailed and intricate graphics and animations from simple mathematical formulas.
