Here is the inner workings of the famicom disk system. The diskdrive with the rubberbelt that likes to snap, the game data extractor ( who looks sucpiciously like mario ), the processing unit ( center right in the picture ), and an RGB port under the battery compartment ( top centre ). We also find a recycling system that turns broken workers into fuel, a charging station, the "Angry gamer's gravity generator" ( good to have when the console suddenly gets airbourne ), and backup workers. And a nuclear backup powerplant with a cooling system that involves a jumping Luigi, a barrel throwing Donkey Kong, an ice spitting Freeon Leeon, and a submerged Gil who's in charge of the circulation of the coolant. The powerplant also supplies the workers with a healthy cloud of radiation. The radiation also make the workers react with the games' contents. So familiar mutations will occour. In a such a situation you will also get new characters. And a few well known Nintendo characters ( like Funky Kong ) was inspired by mutations like this.
If anybody wants to know, the dimensions are: 120x180cm.

Preparing for a move I took time to discard a lot of old things we don't use anymore. 3.5 inch floppy disks were part of the lot. I just saved these. Maybe to be able to tell my grand-children that I was there! ;-)

The first production model, only approx. 50 have been sold, but the quality was very low and most of the cars have been buyed back by the factory. The construction was very progressive, but the production too hasty and mayn flaws have emerged soon. The workers had a popular saying: "DISK nám sežral zisk" (DISK ate away our profit).
Disk brake hub being manufactured in England. It is not sure who this is being made for the humans mentioned in land of the giants are 12 times normal size. This is 50 times normal size. It could be larger humans exist in our universe though a better guess might be the alternate universe humans mentioned by Rudy Rucker.
Pen holders are useful, and for the first time in almost 10 years floppy disks are too.
This version is made using glue to stick 5 disks together. Another version on Instructables uses a drill and cable ties.

Whilst recycling an old Compaq server, I thought some of the parts needed to be recorded in history. This is one of the pictures.

It is completely obscured by the oily-looking, ash-laden water washing down into the lake from areas burned by the Las Conchas fire upstream. Secchi disks are used to measure the clarity of water.

This hard disk held a whopping 7.25 megabytes of storage, (the equivalent of about 5 of the now-obsolete 3-1/2" floppy disks).
