i've done quite a few of these naturally formed heart snaps, so i think i will dedicate an album solely for it!
Working on a new sign project this week. A recreation out of wood of the COLOR TV by RCA sign that used to be featured as an add on sign on many Motel signs in the 60s throught the 70s.
There are still motels with the black background / multicolored sign still hanging but the RCA TV's have been replaced by flatscreens by Vizzio, Samsung, etc...
I've got the backing board to do next. The letters are 5 & 7/8" tall.
When completed the sign should measure out to around 42" x 8".
200m of boards with Brave, Ekto, Kak, and 3 other guys. hotest weekend of the year but the kids were great and produced some really nice work.

It's been a while since I was so happy with the final result of my photos. I absolutely love this one, the tones, the mood. Everything! Fortunately I'm feeling better today. A lot better in fact. I've been fighting some inside "demons", and I feel like I'm being successful doing it. We can't always have what we want, so the better thing to do is learn to live with what you can have.
Hope you're all okay!
Woodworking is a terrific activity. If you are new to woodworking and wanting to significantly improve your skills, the key is education. You need to learn all of the top woodworking ideas and tricks. By learning all of the best woodworking practices, you can avoid common mistakes and take your abilities to the next level.
Always put your safety first when it comes to using tools, stains and paints. The more variety you use, the more specifics there are about applications, tool use, times for drying, and more. Put your safety first by reading the instructions, wearing any needed protective gear, and working in areas with good ventilation whenever using oil-based products or anything that produces air pollutants.
When you are working with wood it is very important that you take your time. Being hasty leaves you open to making plenty of mistakes. Instead of focusing on the amount of time it takes you to complete a project, do everything you can to keep your mind on the task at hand.
When you install your hacksaw blade, make certain the teeth face forward. They are designed to cut when pushed using a forward stroke instead of a pulled stroke. Some of these blades have arrows pointing toward the handles that show the right way to install them. Install it making certain it is tight and can not bend. When you do lots of cutting, your blade heats up and expands, so make certain you tighten it before it begins bending.
Before you start any woodworking project, get all of the tools you will need for the project ready. Always remember to bring a calculator and tape measure with you when you go to purchase your wood. Make certain you have any specialty tools you will need for your project available as well.
Take a look at your local library for books on woodworking. You will likely find books that contain ideas, special skills or even step-by-step guides that can take you from start to finish on a project. A library can be terrific source of information that people tend to forget when they are looking for knowledge, so do not let this resource slip your mind.
A stair gauge is a vital for every woodworking shop. Usually, they are used for the layout of stair jacks, but they can also be used to clamp down the carpenter's square. That indicates your square becomes a circular saw guide. If you use the square as a guide, your cuts will be straight every time.
Many people use utility knives to cut veneer. This can be very hazardous; however, take heart, there is a better way. When cutting veneer, consider using a rotary cutting tool. These economical tools can be purchased in your local fabric shop. Rotary cutting tools allow you to trim veneer to the perfect size.
Always check blade conditions before you saw. Dull blades rip wood apart. This can cause costly mistakes in your project. Checking your saw blades before hand is a lot easier than losing money and time.
Make certain to purchase and wear proper ear protection. Working with wood can be very noisy. You want to avoid hearing loss from prolonged exposure. Get a pair of economical ear plugs, or buy a terrific pair of noise canceling headphones. No matter what you choose, be sure that you use them whenever you operate machinery.
Learn about using pilot holes. This is pretty simple to do. When driving a screw or hammering a nail into a little piece of wood or getting pretty close to the edge of a piece, it tends to split. Often it's unavoidable to put a taking care of into a place like this. However, drilling a hole through the joint that's a bit smaller than the taking care of can prevent it from splitting.
If woodworking is new to you, one of the most crucial pieces of recommendations to take is to thoroughly read all plans and instructions before you begin anything. Knowing what you are doing beforehand will save you time, money and trouble later on. If you can not understand them or something is missing, someone from a local home improvement center may be able to help you.
Use woodworking kits when you're just beginning. The wood in these kits are already pre-cut for you and are easily joined together into a finished product This is a good way to learn all about woodworking. Practicing now will save some money and time for you later on considering that you're going to make fewer mistakes.
Protect your eyes when you are working on a project. You cold end up with a blind eye if you neglect wearing your goggles. To make certain you wear them, find glasses that fit comfortably.
Choose your woodworking tools and equipment carefully if you live in a small space such as an apartment. You can still enjoy completing woodworking projects, but might have to pass up the 14-inch band saw. Pick tools that will do what you need but don't take up too much space.
Choose the right gloves for every woodworking job. If you need fine motor skills, you must use more modern, high tech gloves of a thin, fine, strong, flexible material. When doing more coarse woodworking jobs in cold, damp weather, use pigskin gloves that insulate well and deflect moisture from your skin.
When staining a completed woodworking project stir your stain typically, especially if you are using a liquid stain. As stain sits, the sealer separates from the stain and settles to the bottom. If you do not stir the stain typically, your piece may have different shades of stain because of this separation.
As was discussed in the beginning of this article, woodworking is a really terrific activity. Although certainly hard, it is exceptionally satisfying. To be the best woodworker that you can be, you need to educate yourself on the top woodworking ideas and tricks. Study this article and all of the useful ideas that it contains to improve your woodworking skills. westlacnct.com

this is from my "project in process" and i shooted this weekend and today i finished some of the pictures. Enjoy
A assingment that later became a project,
A lot of the inspiration i got from a wonderful photographer named Francesca Woodman.
((A young girl, who used her naked body, and created soulfull photographs whithout a sexual feeling.
Dark, beautiful, mysterious. i think at least.))
Anyhow, I wanted to take pictures, with inspiration from her, but still me, and here is some of the result.
I Photographed everything with a Hasselblad, Tri-X 400 ISO film, developed by my self, and spend quite many hours in the darkroom until i was satisfied. There pictures, are SCANNED pictures from the finished picture. So the quality ( because a quite crappy scanner) aren't as good as it should be..
+ a bonus........................the things people say to photographers

Project spectrum fire challenge blogged here kaizenjourney.blogspot.com/2008/03/keeping-fire-burning.html
I still have a bad cold, although I improved quite a bit after lunch. So I'm home today. It's too cold to sit in the garden and I don't feel up to standing and ironing (I'd be well enough for work if I were). So I sat on the sofa with my laptop and wrote up some of my holiday notes from this pretty notebook that I carried on my travels.

For this project I chose to use my digital Canon 90D. I've always heard that you can use your 50mm lens backwards for greater and closer detail in your subject, so I tried it with nature around my house.
President Mahinda Rajapaksa inspected the ongoing work at Morana Reservoir and Irrigation Project in Nagadeepa, Mahiyanganaya yesterday (Sep. 10).

Eden Project.
Because there isn't much about in winter, I thought I should have new kitchen project. This year I'm seeing what appears from an Acacia gall (note to self that I should get that gall book!) Uromycladium sp.. So far the project hasn't been too earth shattering, but I have had a few things appear. I'll keep adding if anything else turns up.
The Gall is from Black wattle and is caused by a rust fungus (Uromycladium sp.)
a hat for e.
a patchwork ball for a friend's baby's 1st birthday.
clean floors, bright light reflecting off the snow outside, a warm fire in the stove, and bare feet.
so nice.
Automatic Hand-Dryer
Paper towels are very expensive to procure, stock and dispose of. And conventional hand dryers consume large amounts of energy. This Dyson Airblade hand dryer uses up to 80% less energy and dries hands within 12 seconds (conventional ones take at least 30 seconds or more)! This product is low maintenance, energy efficient and hygienic. It offers considerable cost savings throughout its lifetime; nearly 98% savings compared with using paper towels! Wow, my office should consider having these in the restrooms!
I really wanted to get out and take some outdoor photos this weekend, enjoy the fresh snowfall we had in Pittsburgh. BUT the cold that my wife and daughter had during the week finally caught up with me and I'm feeling pretty crappy so I was taking some pictures of Lily and my dog and I looked out the window and the sun made an appearance. This was taken thru my not-so-clean window and the screen. Rather than post another Lily or dog shot, I posted this one instead.
Governor Kay Ivey gave remarks to the Project South Announcement at The Lab on Dexter Tuesday October 18, 2022 in Montgomery, Ala. Manna Beverages & Ventures plans to build a 1.7 million-square foot facility in Montgomery. The investment from Manna Beverages & Ventures will offer co-packing services combined with warehousing facilities for beverage companies. The project will create more than 280 new jobs in the River Region. The facility will include a research and development center with a bottling line that will provide entrepreneurs, with a focus on women-owned and minority businesses, a place to test new products. The facility will be located off the Interstate 65 Hope Hull exit in Montgomery and will encompass more than 180 acres in the new industrial park developed by the Montgomery Economic Development team.

For this project I decided to focus on my childhood memory of always practicing soccer in my backyard. Basically my entire childhood revolved around playing soccer almost everyday of the week wither it was for leisure or for an actual team. Throughout these set of pictures you can see the things that went in to me playing in my backyard as a kid, whether it was eating snacks, tying my cleats, or accidentally kicking the ball in my moms plants. My work focuses on the different aspects of one main idea. Although my main ideal through this project playing soccer, I also tried to show what needs to be done in order to play whether it be take a water break or put on bug spray etc.
Geocaching. A cache rated at 1.5 terrain one should not need to climb a tree to reach it. The clue says it is 'at head height'. Whose head, a blooming giant?
