Center Furnace on "The Land Between the Lakes" -- Iron produced at Center Furnace was sent to manufacturers to make iron products. William Kelly developed the "air-cooling process" that first made possible the mass production of iron or steel.

The "Kelly process" is the same as the "Bessemer process" may actually have stolen the idea from William Kelly. In 1857, Kelly won patent rights in the United States after a patent dispute with Bessemer, but saw little profit from his invention during his lifetime.

If you look closely in the upper left hand corner of the bowl it reads "Kelly & Co"

Processing...

Built for Andromeda's Gates on Eurobricks. I went with a function over form mentality for this build, as the processing plant actually works. You can fill the hopper, then open the trapdoor to let gold down onto the conveyor belt, which in turn is used to fill the dump truck. See it in action here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=TM0qFY4JgKE

So, is this an invasion of privacy as the Eagle preens itself?

Quick idea for the Order Of Magnitude homepage sketched out on my custom wireframe template.

Just got back from a trip to Texas. My brother got married (yay!) and had a wonderful time with my family. These were not taken on this trip - these are from my trip in May. I posted a similar one back then but this is just a longer exposure. I had really good light that morning!

I will be stopping by everyone's stream in the next few days and catch up - I still need to get caught up around my house/work! Hope everyone is having a great week!

Because of quarantine, or lockdown, or shelter-in-place orders (California, Bay Area) we all have plenty enough time for luxury activities. I am back on track with artwork after several year of silence.

Proof of concept for another kind of mosaic involving 2 kinds of tiles, randomly shuffled.

I first read about this years ago, in a column or book by Martin Gardner, A.K. Dewdney, Douglas Hofstadter or Clifford Pickover. Or maybe somewhere else, but probably one of those four... My idols. :)

...of putting the house back together.

Things are moving along slowly at the house, but they are moving.

EVERYTHING has been removed from the house to be cleaned, except for a few oversized pieces of bedroom furniture that would have had to go out a window and be lowered, in order to remove them from the house (the way they came in years ago.....we have very narrow butterfly steps...only small pieces of furniture can be carried up the stairs.)

Those pieces were cleaned on site. The inside of the house has now been "de-sooted"! .

Larry has a meeting on Monday with the carpenter, plumber and electrician and hopefully he'll find out when they can start the priming and painting .

I want these people to start doing their thing!!!

Meanwhile, Larry has decided there's no reason he can't put in the new kitchen ceiling.

This is one project I'm glad to get done.

If you remember, Larry replaced the ceiling not too long ago.

He put in the drop ceiling tile system.

You can choose from a large variety of tile patterns.

The first time around I saw a pattern that looked and was described as beadboard.

I thought it was exactly what I wanted for my farmhouse kitchen ceiling.

Unfortunately, sometimes things look different in person.

After Larry installed it, we were rather disappointed.

It didn't look AT ALL as I had imagined it would look. Instead of beadboard, it looked like the inside of a corrugated shipping container.

Larry even volunteered to just scrap the tiles and order new ones if I wanted.

In the end I decided to just live with it for awhile.

Time's up!

I'm liking my choice this time 100%!

It's not even done yet, but I am liking this ceiling 100% better!!

Just the first of about 100 projects Larry will probably be tackling these next couple of months.!
