Given sufficient time, even the organic and inorganic fuse together. Seen in Georgetown, DC January 14th, 2007, on an unseasonably warm 70-degree afternoon.
This setting is for my 80ED Triplet refractor. The Vixen bar and saddle allows me to balance the mount in both axes perfectly.

I had to stuff a quarter piece down the center of the formation (Gluing the barrels together in a diamond pattern would have prevented this problem, ah hindsight) to seal off the airflow there, and then stuffed half-pipe pieces of FBR down the edges to help hold the barrels in place.
To make sure the barrels are far enough out to get the seal correct, slide the shell casing onto the adapter that will eventually be used to attach to the titan and slide the barrels down until they connect with the adapter.

Here's your Firefly reassembled, the placing of the white pieces is critical for the advancing mechanism to work correctly, so make sure that the turret advances before reassembling the shell.
Also make sure that the cocking lever is oriented correctly or the gun will never catch when you cock it.
Distances when shot flat, 2 sets of 8 shots (Rounded down to the nearest foot):
42, 34, 34, 33, 33, 32, 32, 29
43, 40, 38, 36, 32, 32, 30, 29
The letter opener only fits into the sheath about 2/3 of the way down so I chopped off the excess sheath just below the "V" on the original and used a 2 part epoxy clay to create a new bottom. Then I sanded down all of the excess detail the original had. You can see that in this shot I left the detail on near the top but changed my mind and sanded it down.
I filled in the slots running down the center with more 2 part epoxy clay and built the anchor for the sageo out of the same epoxy using just a simple rectangle shape and then cut the hole out with an exacto knife.
Changing the marker lights and day running lights to a more yellowish tone rather than bright white.

1917A1 BROWNING MACHINE GUN
In the 1930s, small arms designers modified John Browning's original Model 1917 heavy machine gun.
The Rock Island Arsenal undertook an extensive modification process, converting almost 70,000 Model 1917s to new specifications, which included a new bottom receiver plate, a graduated rear sight, and modified tripod. Designated the M1917A1, the 30 caliber machine gun was water-cooled, belt-fed, and recoil-operated. With water and tripod included, the total weight of the M1917AI was 93 pounds.
In the Pacific theater, it was most often used as a defensive weapon, where, according to one colonel, it was "a grand gun with which to stop a banzai charge."
After comparing the model to the real courthouse, I realized that this side had four windows on each level. This required ordering more windows, a bigger arch, and realigning the windows on top.
RemArc ("Remedy Archiver") is a project I'm working on to create a graphical front end for both the RASMaker and RASMaker2 command line tools respectively.
These tools are used to create, view and extract from the data archives used by the Max Payne and Max Payne 2 games respectively.
Here I am viewing the contents of the music data archive for Max Payne using RemArc.
For those of you are interested, I am writing RemArc in Boo; a third party CLI language for the .NET Framework.
For development, I am using a third-party .NET IDE called, SharpDevelop.

... and TIG'd it in. The far corner was the trickest part as it's so hard to get the filler rod in there while also using the torch to keep the puddle alive. I lost count of the number of times things came into contact and I had to regrind the tungsten
