It seems this is some equipment from NASA at Cape Canaveral. I noticed the generator cable were cut rather than disconnected. June 2nd, 2012.

I visited the dam in Sheboygan Falls this morning. The river was roaring after the melting snow. Rain to come in the next couple of days to add to the mix.

My entry into the Rebrick "freighter wars" competition. My version of a YT model light freighter is named after the gungan beasts who were used to carry shield generators during the battle of Naboo. It has a fully detailed interior, cockpit that seats 4, massive cargo hold below and removable gunner section, full engine detail under the hood, bunks, seating area and everything minifigs need to smuggle supplies to planets in need during the Clone Wars.
Leave a "like" on my entry page if you wanna help me out with the competition! www.lego.com/en-us/rebrick/view-entry?c_id={D9DDC962-F589-417F-AE7A-3F6807969D67}&a_id=52920b21-c3e1-478a-89c4-8d5a4fc55f8b&sortEntry=false
Designed and constructed to construct and launch V2 rockets on an industrial scale towards London (only 117 miles away), 'Building Project 21' was a behemoth of a hardened facility built between 1943 and 1944 into the side of a chalk quarry using revolutionary techniques. Thankfully the project was never fully completed and operational thanks to the persistence of the RAF in disrupting and destroying the facility.
The site is now a museum and many of the completed tunnels can still be explored as part of the experience.
I always was curious to know just how train cars got power if it wasn't supplied from a third rail or from the locomotive. Turns out its just a simple generator and a large battery pack.

CN 186 has nearly completed its long journey from Prince Rupert to Taschereau Yard in Montreal as it passes through Dorval.
People have asked how I built the shield generator. Here's the full technique. The outer uses 2x8 plates, with a 2x3 separating one end, and a 1x2-1x2 bracket attaching the curves (I tried using 1x2-1x4s, but the inner ring wouldn't fit on one side with them). Every fifth 2x8 plate has clips inserted to attach flex hose. The inner ring uses 1x4 plateswith a dot and bracked on one end, and a clip on the other. the clips are only half pressed in to their neighbours, so the spacing is 2½ plates at the inside end, and 3 plates at the outer end. Four inner segments are needed for every 5 outer segments. I did find the spacing of the inner segments slightly wider, so when building the full disc, it was necessary to sneak a few extra plates into the outer ring to compensate.
Hope this gives people enough to get started.
Sorry about the multi-coloured 2x8 plates - I used up all the grey ones!

Providing the facility with needed power and warmth. I wanted to take more pictures of other parts in here, but unfortunately we ran out of time.
The elements of this Pedal Power system, if purchased new, would cost approximately $400. Many of the components could be sourced through the community or purchased used.
Theo Jansen in de Electriciteitsfabriek, Den Haag 2014
Begin februari verhuist kunstenaar en wetenschapper Theo Jansen tijdelijk zijn beroemde Strandbeesten naar een nieuw winteratelier. In de industriële en poëtische turbinehal van de E.ON Electriciteitsfabriek is vanaf half maart tot begin mei het maakproces van een nieuw Strandbeest van dichtbij te volgen. In de hal construeert Jansen een groot, nieuw dier; de Animaris Suspendisse (10 x 4 meter, bij 4 meter hoog). Een uitgestrekte zandlaag vormt de werkvloer om het nieuwe beest uit te proberen. Zeven andere forse strandbeesten bewegen zich -aan de hand van een bezoeker – voort op de begane grond.
Als in een laboratorium experimenteert Jansen met electriciteisbuis, tape, tie-raps en patflessen. Al twintig jaar toetst Jansen de vernuftige proefjes om tot de techniek te komen waarmee ooit zijn kudde – misschien wel geheel zelfstandig – de duinen kan onderhouden. Een droom die hem drijft om door te zoeken naar nieuwe technieken en ontwikkelingen.
In de tentoonstelling ‘Generator Strandbeest’, op de eerste verdieping van de fabriek, wordt een historisch overzicht getoond van de evolutie en het maakproces van de dieren aan de hand van een paleontologisch veld met fossielen. Film, foto’s en video materiaal lichten de ontstaansgeschiedenis toe. Dagelijks wordt er een rondleiding gegeven door Theo Jansen zelf.
Begin mei wordt de kudde, dan een dier rijker, uitgeleid naar zee waarna de dieren weer wind kunnen vangen en uitgelaten langs de kustlijn kunnen paraderen.
Since 1990 Theo Jansen has been occupied with the making of a new nature. Not pollen or seeds but plastic yellow tubes are used as the basic material of this new nature. He makes skeletons which are able to walk on the wind. Eventually he wants to put these animals out in herds on the beaches, so they will live their own lives.

Cloud Generator, Dolomites..
I remember this scene well from our place near Rifuggio Locatelli, the clouds just seem to come of this mountain ridge in the distance, and I remember how the early morning light caught the top of it, revealing the textures of the mountain face

The Generator is the business end of the hydro-electric system and is rotated by the turbine below, which produces the electricity to be sent to the main grid to be used by the consumer.
The Generators were made by General Electric Co limited from Peterborough, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
