I modified this PN2011 in a few ways:
1. A cable release from an old Kodak folder was affixed to the shutter release. I originally drilled out the button and threaded the hole for a shutter release. The threads didn't hold though. The plastic was too soft. I ended up epoxy-ing the thing on.
2. I took off the lens cover paddle and hollowed it out. I glued a polyester filter in the hole. I chose red for some good contrast in the sky with B&W film. You have to defeat the mechanism that keeps the shutter from firing when the lens cover is closed. Easy as cutting out a piece of plastic with a razor knife.
3. The two paper clips and dental floss control the shutter. The top one resets the shutter for double or more exposures. The bottom one is the bulb setting. I glued a magnet to hold the paper clips and keep them out of the way. Also it gives the dental floss some slack so it does not effect the shutter speed. If you want a longer shutter speed, you can let the paper clip dangle. Not sure how much this adds without some experimentation.
4. I cut a window out of the back for a pinhole redscale mechanism.

This build combines a few genre into one.
As per the design brief for the 102nd challenge, the Previa Surf Van is kind of a rat rod. An ordinary car modified to perform a particular function better (surfing safaris), without going overboard on the impracticalties of beauty. I see a great many similarly themed vehicles where I live (on the doorstep of Australia's surf coast) - beware, the water is cold! They don't get the 'woody' wagon theme happening, even though the vehicle type was present here during the period that they were popular.
The Previa also mixes some of Lino's pop-culture island-beauty, hoolla totem stuff too. Lino built a VW Beetle to this exact theme for Challenge 53 - 'For the Love of the Bug'.
He even provided a recipe for the Blue Hawaiian cocktail as follows:
Ingredients:
3/4 oz. Light Rum
3/4 oz. Vodka
1/2 oz. Blue Curacao
3 oz. Pineapple Juice
1 oz. Sweet & Sour Mix
Preparation:
Combine all ingredients and mix well. If using ice, mix the ingredients in a blender. Serve in a tall glass. Garnish with a slice of pineapple and a cherry.
Sounds good. And makes me want to be some place warm (with warm water). The weather having just turned cold here in southern Australia.
One has to be always careful with cultural totems - so I asked a sly 'If its ok?' regarding the totem to my part-Hawaiian wife. I don't think she was paying attention though, so it might not count.
I always thought this Previa model was pretty cool, right from the first spy images in 1989 (about the time I received my driver's licence). I had grown up in a family of five kids, and we had a van. A boxy van, with vinyl interior that was white.
A Previa was like some kind of hot female, advanced space-alien from planet minivan - here to blow your mind.
I would still love one of these. Except, it only just makes it into our 1996 cut off for age, so there all probably knackered by now.
This Lego miniland-scale LUGNuts Custom Previa Blue Hawaiian Surf Van has been created for Flickr LUGNuts' 102nd Build Challenge, titled - 'I Smell a (Modern) Rat!'. In this challenge, any post-1996 vehicle can be built as a rat-rod.
Made of dark denim. The lighter contrast trim is just the reverse of the denim folded over to mimic a bias tape look. Took "Charlie Bag" pattern found on BurdaStyle website and modified it into a smaller purse with pockets instead of large reusable grocery bag.
Applied Building Block Dress Book techniques to the Teaparty Playsuit (and Lullaby Layette pants length) to make a zip up, quilted romper.

'Modified Halls' 7920 and 7925 'Coney Hall' and 'Westol Hall' are fresh out of 'A' Shop from what will undoubtedly be their last major overhaul. Even at this late stage, the finish of locos leaving the works was exemplary.

Peter's elegant design extends the rack stay to become the headlight mount. And the wire runs through the stay.
Inverted Edelux was modified to provide switched taillight power.
(Headlight mounting bolt is not the final one, just a temporary place holder.)
This is an old USB 1.1 SD/MMC card reader that I modified. It has 0.1" headers for CLK, DAT, CMD, and ground, as well as a DPDT switch that lets me connect and disconnect CLK and the card insertion detect pin.
They are similar but different.
One is modern and cast. The one with the hole started out as an old school, bulge formed or “pressed” Cinelli lug from the late 60’s or early 70’s.
The long point on the Cinelli lug was fashioned from a recycled square cut flooring nail. The nail was annealed, flattened blacksmith style , then welded to the original lug and then profiled to shape.
The applied bronze fillets soften the transitions and allow things to visually flow together.
Each lug has its own charm and each one will look proper when brazed up.
The A55 Cambridge Mark II, known as the first "Farina" model because of its Pininfarina design, was produced from 1959 through to 1961. It was a rebadged Morris Oxford and retained the 1.5 L B-Series engine, now with an SU carburettor, and producing 55 bhp (41 kW) at 4350 rpm.
The interior had individual leather trimmed seats in front spaced closely together to allow a central passenger to be carried. The gear change was either on the column or floor mounted and the handbrake lever between the driver's seat and the door. Other improvements highlighted at the time included an enlarged luggage compartment with counterbalanced lid and increased elbow width on both front and rear seats. A heater could be fitted as an optional extra.
A "Countryman" estate model appeared in 1960. Austin Cambridge Estates were called "Countryman". (Morris Oxford Estates were called "Traveller".) A55 Mark II and A60 Estates were identical from the windscreen back; the later models never got the reduced rear fins and modified rear lights of the A60 saloons.
The engineering of the car was conventional with coil sprung independent front suspension and a live axle at the rear with semi elliptic leaf springs. The braking used a Girling system with 9 in (229 mm) drums all round.
Just under 150,000 were built in total.
A MkII A55 was tested by The Motor magazine in 1959 had a top speed of 75.5 mph (121.5 km/h) and could accelerate from 0–60 mph (97 km/h) in 24.5 seconds. A fuel consumption of 31.0 miles per imperial gallon (9.11 L/100 km; 25.8 mpg-US) was recorded. The test car cost £878 including taxes of £293.

1959 wurde der Austin A55 Cambridge Mark II angeboten. Er hatte eine neue, gegenüber dem Vorgänger deutlich vergrößerte Karosserie in Trapezform mit Heckflossen. Pininfarina in Italien hatte sie entworfen. Mit der gleichen Karosserie und Technik wurde auch der Morris Oxford angeboten. Ganz ähnliche Karosserien wurden auch bei den zeitgenössischen Peugeot 404 und Fiat 2100 verwendet.
Neben der viertürigen Limousine gab es nun auch einen fünftürigen Kombi. (Estate).
Die Motorleistung war durch Einsatz eines SU-Vergasers (anstatt des bisherigen Zenith-Exemplars) auf 55 bhp (40 kW) angehoben worden.
1961 erschien der Nachfolger Austin A60 mit gleicher Karosserie, aber einem stärkeren Motor.

Opening-act dei Duran Duran, il 12 giugno 2016, nell’ambito del Street Music Art all’Assago Summer Arena a Milano, le Bloom Twins.
Bloom Twins are a Ukrainian-born English pop music group made up of twin sisters Anna and Sonia Kuprienko. They refer to the style of their music as "dark pop." The girls released their first digital single in June 2013 and are currently producing an EP due in the fourth quarter of 2014.
Sister act Bloom Twins merge several genres, adding flute, harmonica, piano and electronica to a diverse vocal style to create something new, fresh and unique.
After uploading their debut track ‘Fahrenheit’ to You Tube in 2013, Bloom Twins made a double impact on both music and fashion, opening the door to numerous profile pieces in magazines such as Paradigm, Vogue and ID. Soon after, a support slot for Eels at O2 Academy in Liverpool was followed by Iggy’s artist of the week at MTV. 2014 saw numerous releases and videos bringing more attention. Following the release of “Get up, Stand up” the Bloom Twins were featured on BBC NewsNight with Jeremy Paxman and graced pages of broadsheet newspapers such as The Sunday Times, The Guardian, The Daily Mail as well appeared on Simon Lederman's show on BBC Radio London 94.9, Gary Crowley’s and on BBC Introducing.
A period out of the country halted momentum before they made a breakthrough appearance in Unicef’s Imagine campaign alongside Katy Perry and Will.i.am among other heavyweights of music and media.
In the car park of Driebeek Sports Hall in Gentbrugge, there are 8 comfortable parking spots for camper vans, as well as all basic amenities. The car park is not far from the motorway exit, close to public transport which takes you to the city centre, and at just a stone's throw from the Gentbrugse Meersen, which is the green lung on the outskirts of Ghent.

Mmmmm, pencil eraser... It actually works! I fudged up a few heads, but some turned out really well!
Who can guess what heads these were?
few ideas, and all well confused.
so, yesterday I decided that I didn't need the torso to be badly splitted in half. I still want it split in 3 parts, so I've decided to remove everything between the breasts and the hips and redo it from the beginning.
first joint under the breasts, second joint at the hips.
I've never been overly fond of the hip joint, but I do want a nice belly... and it seemed a good idea to settle for this.
also modified the hip-legs double joint, to avoid showing off the ball joint openings...
fff.
I hate myself XD
