A fishing net or fishnet is a net used for fishing. Nets are devices made from fibers woven in a grid-like structure. Fishing nets are usually meshes formed by knotting a relatively thin thread. Early nets were woven from grasses, flaxes and other fibrous plant material. Later cotton was used. Modern nets are usually made of artificial polyamides like nylon, although nets of organic polyamides such as wool or silk thread were common until recently and are still used.
All parts printed from a polyamide powder.

Haiku* is a folding Type 100 rangefinder, modeled largely after the NPC 195 and other Polaroid Land cameras [note that I've owned none of these cameras, and seen the NPC firsthand but once - I've been going off of Google Images :) ]. Development has been continuing slowly, overshadowed by Duo and other projects. The modeling has progressed to where we could see a prototype being made in the next couple of months. No promises though!
Designing a rangefinder is an order of magnitude more difficult than designing a TLR! In a TLR, everything will be spot-on as long as your images fall on the same plane. Developing the rangefinder optics and couplings has required a good deal of research and borrowing from previous designs (Leica III, I'm looking at you). I decided to go with a separate viewfinder and rangefinder for simplicity - less worry about getting the two to coincide. A super-long 100mm RF base removes the need for tiny, intricate parts. The viewfinder will lack framelines and parallax correction and the usual niceties, but it will be super bright and good enough, in my book. I decided to go with a Horseman 105mm f/4.5 lens, for its good-enough speed and fantastic coverage. A 105mm f/3.5 would be lighter, brighter, and more dramatic, but I couldn't find one at a cost I liked. The camera could easily be adapted to one, with a quick change in rangefinder configuration.
Aesthetics-wise, it's a bit of a brick (like Duo). The rangefinder housing has some origami cranes that will be debossed during the 3D printing process, just to pretty it up a little it. I'm not sure that it's helped. It just looks so stark and blank without it; and the space is prime real estate.
Type: Doppel-klapp folding rangefinder
Media: Type 100 Polaroid film in Mamiya Press Back
Lens: Horseman Super-Topcor 105mm f/4.5 (covers 4x5!)
Focusing: Leica III-type coupled rangefinder (100mm BL x 1.25 mag = 125mm EBL)
Viewfinder: Reverse Gaussian 0.60x, no framelines
Focus Range: 1m -- Inf
Material: 3D printed polyamide, waterjet stainless steel
*[This is a working name, in the same strain of previous cameras, e.g. Solo (Instapin self-developing pinhole), Duo (Polaroid TLR), Sonnet (Laika SWC), Quartet (Planned 645 SLR)]
I really like this moss-green yarn (it's acrylic, the white is a mix of wool and polyamide)! So I crocheted this little bag (24 x 27 cm) and used a negative filet crochet technique for the heart. And then I added some white shell edging/border at the top, looks a little christmassy, ey? :o)
Here's an English translation by Karoliina Härkönen (please respect the copy right!):
Yarn and yarn outlets
Novita Isoveli (75% wool, 25% polyamide, 130 m/100g), 600 g of yellow (shade 228)
Other similar yarns on the market which could be a suitable replacement yarn include Gjestal Topp't Tå (100% wool, 55 m/50g).
Gauge
14 sts and 21 rows in stockinette = 10 cm
Lace gauge is not essential, as the lace portions of the pattern will stretch to fit the wearer.
Needles
6 mm circular needle, 80 cm or longer
6 mm DPNs
As each knitter’s gauge is unique, use a needle size that gives you the mentioned gauge.
Other Accessories
4 stitch markers
10 buttons, diameter 12 mm
about 5 metal snaps
thick, blunt needle for sewing the folded hems
Size
M / L
Chest measurement: 90 cm unstretched, however, will stretch to fit a 95cm bust
Waist: 76 cm unstretched
Arm circumference: 29 cm, but the pattern is at it’s best with a larger arm circumference
Length, from the hem to the collar: 69 cm
Jacket is knit top-down with raglan-sleeves, so it is easy to try on and adjust to fit your own measurements.
Instructions
Collar
Cast on 52 stitches.
Knit in st st until height is about 5 cm (about 9 rounds).
Note! Maintain last 2 sts in garter stitch.
On the next right side row K1, * yo, k2tog*, repeat from * to last stitch, K1. Continue in st st until height after yo row is 5 cm (about 11 rows). End on a purl (WS) row.
Shoulders
Divide the stitches for the fronts, the sleeves and the back as follows:
K11, yo, place marker, k1, yo, k3, yo, pm, k1, yo, k20, yo, pm, k1, yo, k3, yo, pm, k1, yo, k11.
Purl the next row until the last 2 sts, K2.
Next row: * knit up to the marker, yo, slip marker, k1, yo *, repeat from * (5 sleeve sts between the yarn overs).
Purl the next row until the last 2 sts, K2.
Next row: * knit up to the mark, yo, slip marker, 1 o, yo *, repeat from * (7 sleeve sts between the yarn overs).
Purl the next row until the last 2 sts, K2.
Next row: * knit up to the mark, yo, slip marker, 1 o, yo *, repeat from * (9 sleeve sts between the yarn overs).
Purl the next row until the last 2 sts, K2.
Next row: * knit up to the mark, yo, place marker, 1 o, yo *, repeat from * (11 sleeve sts between the yarn overs). This row is the bottom row of the sleeve chart.
Purl the next row until the last 2 sts, K2.
Begin lace pattern on the sleeves, while continuing the raglan increases as specified above.
Continue the sleeve chart, using the sleeves’ centre stitches. This will create raglan sleeves, with raglan increases on each right side row (increasing 2 stitches per sleeve on right side rows). These stitches are knit on RS rows and purled on WS rows i.e. in stockinette stitch. The portion of the chart that is repeated is shown on a light blue background. Rows 12 – 15 of the chart are a model of how the sleeve widens and how the lace pattern fits into the pattern.
Once you have 43 stitches, including the inner yarn overs, put the sleeve stitches on hold and knit the body.
This requires 30 rows of knitting, in other words the sleeve pattern is repeated a total of 3 times. If you want to knit a larger size, you can continue the increases further. You can try the jacket on at this point. If you want a smaller jacket, do not do so many repeats.
Body Part
Continue to knit in st st for another 9cm (about 18 rows). The last two stitches on WS rows should be knit.
Begin the waist decreases on the next right side row: * knit in st st up to 2 sts before marker, k2tog, slip marker, k2tog*, repeat from * once, knit in st st to the end of the row.
Repeat these decreases every 6th row three more times (a total of 16 stitches decreased – 4 sts per decrease round).
Knit 3 rows in st st and start increase rounds: * knit st st until marker, add 1 s (pick up bar between sts and ktbl), slip marker, add 1 s *, repeat from * once again, knit st st to the end of row.Repeat these increases every 4th row 9 more times (a total of 40 stitches increased).
Knit the last 11 rows in st st. This is important in order to ensure that the picot edge and the folded hem drape nicely.
On the next right side row K3, * yo, k2 *, repeat from * to the last stitch, K1.
Knit 10 rows in st st. Cast off the stitches loosely.
Sleeves
Move sleeve stitches onto the double pointed needles. Maintain lace pattern in the middle of stitches as before, and the rest of stitches are knit in st st.
When you have knitted approx. 8 cm of the sleeve (about 15 rows), begin sleeve decreases. K2tog, knit the rest of the stitches till 2 remain, k2tog tbl. Repeat these decreases every 14th row five more times (a total of 12 stitches decreased). If the last decreases are likely to be less than 5 cm from the wrist and the desired length of the sleeve, leave them out.
Knit two rows in st st. After this work the picot edge: k1, * yo, k2*, repeat from * till end of the row.
Knit four more rows of st st. Cast off loosely.
Button band
Button band is knit separately. Before knitting the button band, wash and block the jacket. This is done in order to figure out the length of the button band.
Cast on 16 stitches and knit 3 rows in garter st.
K2 (k these 2 sts on wrong side rows too) and then knit the first line of the button band chart. Continue to repeat the chart until the band has reached the desired length. The model jacket contains eight repeats of the button band chart. Wash and block the finished button band.
Finishing
Sew button band onto the jacket’s right front edge using mattress stitch.
Fold over the neckline to form the picot edge and sew it closed at the bottom using blind stitching. I alternated taking a loop from the cast on edge with taking the top edge of a stitch from the outer piece onto the needle. The top edge of a stitch from the outer piece will look something like a small minus sign on the wrong side.
Turn the cuffs and sew them closed.
Turn the hemline and sew it closed.
Spread the jacket out on a flat surface and measure where to place the buttons from the tips of the lace. Mark these places with pins and sew the buttons on.
Sew snaps in places where the garment will likely be stretched most when worn, for example, at the breasts and hips, or at the top of the collar. One half of the snap should be on the left front edge and the other half on the seam between the right front edge and the button band.

Here's my latest project, a TTL light meter for the Canon P rangefinder. It's pretty similar in operation to the meter in the Leica M6. Light entering the camera though the lens is reflected off of a white dot painted on the first shutter curtain. This reflected light is measured by a TSL235R light-to-frequency sensor. An attached microcontroller measures the output frequency of the light meter, and uses that information to calculate the required shutter speed. The shutter speed is then displayed on a 4x7 segment display (like those used on old HP calculators - kinda retro!).
The advantage is, you no longer have to carry around a light meter, and you don't have to just guess at what you're pointing it at - you should get reliable center-weighted TTL metering without ever having to pick up a separate light meter.

I was going to a meeting at 1 PM, so I decided not to dress up and turn in, not to late in the morning as usual.
But (much like a junkie) I woke up at 2 in the morning and decided that perhaps sleep could be pursponed, until one is resting safely in a nursing home, surrounded by caring young nymphs in white uniforms who´s only task is to be at my begin call. ”I guess sleep can wait a handfull of decades.” I sighed to my self, as I began the strenuous task of deciding what to wear for a refreshing nightly walk, through the lovely streets of Copenhagen.
You may notice I have had a ball of fun, experimenting with my new shining 60 Denier pantyhose, the limits are without boundaries when one begin combining shine and nylon, polyamide, elastan and lycra. I just LOVE things that shine, allways have, very primitive really. Even before I knew I was a tranny, I could sit for long times just staring at the rainbow colours reflected from the sides of a fish lure, while turning it in my hand to my visual amazement.
But as I have become older, I have become more passionately devoted to the visual pleasures and more depth is needed behind the shine, to attract, enchant and hold my attention. As even not the most treasured diamond in the world, attract my eye as much, as a simple ordinary beautiful ”shiny” girl :o)
And yes... I know the bra is showing on the last picture... And do I have news for you. → Nobody´s perfect ;o)

Safflower (Carthamus Tinctorius) is a highly branched, herbaceous, thistle-like annual, usually with many long sharp spines on the leaves. Plants are 30 to 150 cm tall with globular flower heads (capitula) and commonly, brilliant yellow, orange or red flowers. Each branch will usually have from one to five flower heads containing 15 to 20 seeds per head. Safflower has a strong taproot which enables it to thrive in dry climates, but the plant is very susceptible to frost injury from stem elongation to maturity.
USES:
Traditionally, the crop was grown for its seeds, and used for colouring and flavouring foods, in medicines, and making red (carthamin) and yellow dyes, especially before cheaper aniline dyes became available. For the last fifty years or so, the plant has been cultivated mainly for the vegetable oil extracted from its seeds. In April 2007 it was reported that genetically modified safflower has been bred to create insulin.
Safflower oil is flavorless and colorless, and nutritionally similar to sunflower oil. It is used mainly in cosmetics and as a cooking oil, in salad dressing, and for the production of margarine. It may also be taken as a nutritional supplement. INCI nomenclature is Carthamus tinctorius.
Safflower flowers are occasionally used in cooking as a cheaper substitute for saffron, and are thus sometimes referred to as "bastard saffron." Safflower seed is also used quite commonly as an alternative to sunflower seed in birdfeeders, as squirrels do not like the taste of it.
The pharmaceutical company SemBioSys Genetics is currently using transgenic safflower plants to produce human insulin as the global demand for the hormone grows. Safflower-derived human insulin is currently in the PI/II trials on human test subjects. Phillip Stephan, SemBioSys Genetics Inc, product bulletin June 2008.
There are two types of safflower that produce different kinds of oil: one high in monounsaturated fatty acid (oleic acid) and the other high in polyunsaturated fatty acid (linoleic acid). Currently the predominant oil market is for the former, which is lower in saturates than olive oil, for example.
Safflower oil is also used in painting in the place of linseed oil, particularly with white, as it does not have the yellow tint which linseed oil possesses.
Lana is a strain of Safflower that grows in the southwestern United States, most notably Arizona and New Mexico.
In colouring textiles, safflower's dried flowers are used as a natural textile dye. Natural dyes derived from plants are not widely used in industry but it is getting more important world wide because of naturality and fashion trends. The colourful matter in safflower is benzoquinone-based Carthamin, so it is one of the quinone type natural dyes. It is a direct dye (CI Natural Red 26) and soluble. Yellow, mustard, khaki, olive green or even red colours can be obtained on textiles, but it is mostly used for yellow colours. All hydrophilic fibres (all natural fibres, such as cotton, wool, etc.) can be dyed with this plant since it can be classified as a direct dye. Polyamide can also be dyed without a mordant agent because of its wool-like chemical structure. Polyester, polyacrylnitryl and others which are hydrophobic synthetic fibres can be dyed only in the existence of a mordant.
Safflower concentrate is an ingredient of the carbonated soft drink Tizer.
History:
Safflower is one of humanity's oldest crops. Chemical analysis of ancient Egyptian textiles dated to the Twelfth dynasty identified dyes made from safflower, and garlands made from safflowers were found in the tomb of the pharaoh Tutankhamun. John Chadwick reports that the Greek name for safflower occurs many times in Linear B tablets, distinguished into two kinds: a white safflower, which is measured, and red which is weighed. "The explanation is that there are two parts of the plant which can be used; the pale seeds and the red florets."
Safflower was also known as carthamine in the 19th century. It is a minor crop today, with about 600,000 tons being produced commercially in more than sixty countries worldwide. India, United States, and Mexico are the leading producers, with Ethiopia, Kazakhstan, China, Argentina and Australia accounting for most of the remainder.
Other names include Sallflower, Beni, Chimichanga, or Carthamus Tinctorius.
