"The Washing Machine" is one of the many falls of "The Fairy Pools" in Glen Brittle, Isle of Skye. It is hardly surprising that these falls are so popular with tourists as they are spectacular and the mountain waters are coloured blue/green.

Snapped for Smile on Saturday “timepieces” theme. Well, I think a camera is a time machine in that it preserves a moment in time for posterity or until I hit the delete button.

I have no idea who owns this bike...

"Who is this irresistible creature who has an insatiable love for the dead?"

 

Living Dead Girl!

 

"What are you thinking about?

What are you thinking about?"

"The same thing you are"

 

Rage in the cage

And piss upon the stage

There's only one sure way

To bring the giant down

Defunct the strings

Of cemetery things

With one flat foot

On the devil's wing

 

Crawl on me

Sink into me

Die for me

Living Dead Girl

Crawl on me

Sink into me

Die for me

Living Dead Girl

 

"What are you thinking about?

What are you thinking about?"

"The same thing you are"

 

Raping the geek

And hustling the freak

Like a hunchback juice

On a sentimental noose

Operation filth

They love to love the wealth

Of an SS whore

Making scary sounds

 

Crawl on me

Sink into me

Die for me

Living Dead Girl

Crawl on me

Sink into me

Die for me

Living Dead Girl

 

"What are you thinking about?"

 

Psyclone jack

Hallucinating hack

Thinks that Donna Reed

Eats dollar bills

Goldfoot's machine

Creates another fiend

So beautiful

They make you kill

 

Crawl on me

Sink into me

Die for me

Living Dead Girl

Crawl on me

Sink into me

Die for me

Living Dead Girl

 

Blood on her skin

Dripping with sin

Do it again

Living Dead Girl

Blood on her skin

Dripping with sin

Do it again

Living Dead Girl

Spent this Labor Day morning at the Idaho State Fair....and of course packed the camera around, trying very hard to get interesting shots or at least something different.....so here it is....what do you all think...

A commissioned model to build a more movie-accurate model than the CUUSOO set. It has functioning doors and seats two minifigs...or a minifig and a dog ;)

What's better than a single machine that dispenses gumballs? A machine that dispenses not one, but 2 types of candy!

 

Benny clearly agrees... and apparently ate all the candy because both machines are empty

 

Another name released for publication. And another one...

The machine takes them systematically, one by one.

And the machine has no feelings. It doesn’t care.

As long as the gears keep grinding,

keep rolling.

But every machine has its operator,

the one who pulls the levers, directs it, and decides what it will do

and how it will function.

And I, just a small cog,

am waiting.

For my turn.

 

Dans la machine

Un autre nom autorisé à la publication. Et encore un autre...

La machine les prend systématiquement, un par un.

Et la machine n’a pas de sentiments. Elle s’en fiche.

Tant que les rouages continuent de moudre,

continuent de tourner.

Mais chaque machine a son opérateur,

celui qui tire les leviers, la dirige et décide ce qu’elle fera

et comment elle fonctionnera.

Et moi, juste un petit rouage,

j’attends.

Mon tour.

glory days gone by for this massive machine's cog wheel

Bring back childhood memories ...

There are 76 pieces of steel that have all been milled and shaped and brazed together with brass and silver to make this machine. Everything was hand made in the shop except the water bottle bosses and some of the cable stops.

 

The seat height should be raised a bit...(I forgot my allen key). This bicycle was built for James B. who is a tad taller than I am. James wanted a bike that could stand up to some punishment. A front end that is responsive. A machine that would stop on a dime. He was a little reluctant to move toward disc brakes because he had always ridden standard calipers.

 

This bike hits all of those points. Stops on a dime with a velvet touch. Front end is stiff with almost no flex during heavy braking. Campy 11 speed shifts perfectly. Tracks through turns with confidence.

 

Unfortunately his regular group ride will be pestering him about that bizarre front end. James, I enjoyed making this machine for you. Thank you for the opportunity and the trust you placed in me to create what was in your imagination.

If a neighborhood establishes itself as an art community shouldn't it's entire space, with all of the contents, be art? Including the ATM's??

 

Here's one of several "enhanced" ATM's located in the Alberta Arts District of Portland, Oregon.

As all of you have been loving the Arcade machines, here is a shot of all those I've made so far.

 

This has been a long running project. And it's important to say that while these are all my creations, there was a lot of inspiration from many other talented builders. There's really only so many ways you can build these at minifig scale. For instance; I didn't come up with the idea of the upside down slope for the skeeball machine, that was inspired by a talented build on LEGO Ideas (in review atm) And I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if there's an identical claw machine out there (how many ways can you do a box, windows and claw at top?) We but stand on the backs of giants.

 

Next step for this project is a pinball machine, and then a range of stickers for the cabinets (yes, those are my illustrations, and making them work at this scale is one of the challenges) And then a larger building to bring them together. Not sure what that last will look like, but not Flynn's. Something else, and suggestions are welcome.

My custom Ultimate Machine (also known as a useless machine) built using the new Mindstorms EV3. You really have to watch the video to see what it does, otherwise it's just a pretty black box with a switch on it.

 

watch the video

 

see what's inside

 

Building instructions and the Mindstorms project file can be found on my website: www.truedimensions.com/instructions

 

The LuuMa EV3 is a bit more elaborate than the typical ultimate machine, featuring 6 different responses for turning the switch off and 2 evasive maneuvers for trying to prevent the switch from being turned on in the first place.

 

I had a blast building this one, and programming the different responses. Not to mention playing with it once it was complete. I can't wait to put it out at a show and watch people interact with it.

 

I've been pretty impressed with the EV3, although I have encountered the odd glitch or two with both the hardware and software. Hopefully these get ironed out in future updates.

 

September 2013

D18033. With the prospect of a war against Nazi Germany becoming more and more likely during the late 1930s, it was decided that a place of safety needed to be found where the Government and military leaders could carry out their vital tasks in the event of an aerial bombardment.

 

Storage rooms in a London basement under some Government buildings were therefore hastily converted into office and living accommodation where the Prime Minister and his staff could work in safety. These became known as the Cabinet War Rooms and they are now open to the public as a permanent museum and memorial to wartime leader Winston Churchill.

 

Amongst the many artefacts on display is this German four rotor Enigma cipher machine.

I wanted to see a new waterfall today and it has got to where I have to drive over a 100 miles to do that as of lately. So I decided to check out Machine Falls in Tennesee because I have had several people tell me how awesome it was. They were not kidding especially with the icicles there. However if visiting you will probably have to wade across the creek to get to the easier access. And folks wonder why I hike in shorts and flip flops.....

Quite a long time that this machine dig out potatos

Smaller than my first one, which was not actually built at minifigure scale.
