Got my Heated Build Platform parts from Ponoko today!
Things to fix in the next version:
- Bottom build platform magnet & bolt holes are in the wrong place.
- Need 0.4mm bumps instead of 0.1mm for better friction fit of perpendicular parts.
- Delrin was too thick for 3*2mm layers; was probably 0.1"=2.54mm thick. May simplify to two layers & fill gap anyway.
Toy wish list: vinyl cutter like CraftRobo for paper prototyping and thermochromic sheet cutting.
Ellen waiting for the train to Fife -- it terminates at Aberdeen, which you can just about make out in the long streak of writing on the front of the train (if you know what the word is supposed to be).

Taken during a tour of Aldwych underground station, organised by the London Transport Museum.
First proposed by Great Northern and Strand Railway (GN&SR) in 1898, Aldwych station finally opened by Great Northern, Piccadilly and Brompton Railway (GNP&BR) in 1907 as Strand station, on a spur line from Holborn. The building itself was built following the standard design of stations as part of Underground Electric Railways Company of London (UERL) Leslie Green (1875-1908) .
Considering the purpose of the tube line was to bring travellers down to theatreland, it's quite ironic therefore that it was built on the site of the Royal Strand Theatre (which was acquired and demolished for the works).
The eastern tunnel was decommissioned in 1914, due to low use, and the station was renamed Aldwych the following year. In 1917, during zeppelin raids, 300 paintings from the National Gallery were stored on the disused Eastern platform. The station continued to operate after the Great War, but always in low numbers.
In 1940, during the Second World War, Aldwych was closed and acted as an air raid shelter, as well as resuming its role of storing national treasures (this time the British Museum and allegedly the Royal Family's tea service).
The station reopened in 1946, but passenger numbers stayed low and eventually the station closed for good in 1994.
Pomona Station is one of a number of Railway Stations in Queensland with unmanned platforms. The original Railway Station buildings were moved closer to the village in 2000 and converted to The Old Pomona Railway Station Gallery and Blacksmiths’ Shop.
Pomona is a railway station on the Nambour and Gympie North Line of South East Queensland, Australia. It is part of the Queensland Rail City network. The station platform was extended in late 2009 to accommodate six-car passenger trains, while new closed circuit television cameras have been installed to improve passenger safety. The station is also equipped with a public telephone and Go-Card electronic ticket readers.

"Mokra Gora" (Serbian: Мокра Гора, meaning the Wet Mountain in English, is a village in Serbia on the northern slopes of mountain Zlatibor.
Mokra Gora has become popular after a reconstruction of a narrow gauge railway called Šargan Eight which is unique in the world. Its route viewed from the sky, looks like the number 8.
In addition, the well-known Serbian film director Emir Kusturica has also made a contribution to the development of tourism in Mokra Gora. He financed the construction of an ethno village Drvengrad (Timber Town). For this development, Kusturica received the "Philippe Rotthier European Architecture Award" from the Brussels Foundation for Architecture.

Platform tickets at Oxford caused me and my traveling buddy Craig to have a run in with the British Transport Police.
We sometimes bought platform tickets when we made spotting trips. This was in addition to our regular ticket. On our return to Oxford, we would use the platform tickets to leave the station. This allowed us to keep our day trip tickets as souvenirs.
One day though, the station staff changed the color of the Platform tickets between our departure and return. The BTP were waiting at the station exit, and when we tried to use our Platform tickets at the exit, we were nabbed. The police officers were quite disappointed to discover we had valid tickets and quite incredulous that we'd go to such trouble just to keep a ticket...
The boarding platform at Rockside Road station in Independence on the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad may be empty now, but that won't last for long.
I would love to be wearing these platform sandals with a summer dress at work. I know it is fashionable to wear sandals with bare legs but I am more confortable with hose on. These are knee-highs but I would wear thigh-highs or pantyhose with a dress. The platforms are 1 inch in the front and 2 and 1/2 in at the back.
