The main prop shaft is quite large and very old. It is original to the ship, making it over 35yrs old. It leaves the gear box that splits the drive between the mighty Blackstones at nearly 500mm in diameter. By the time it reaches the exit bulkhead it has tapered down to below 300mm. this is to reduce the rotational mass as well as the overall weight of the shaft. To keep this massive prop shaft in line and free of vibration requires nearly a dozen ginormous steady bearing assemblies. One of these is showcased in this picture.

Dr. Evermor's Forevertron, built in the 1980s, is the largest scrap metal sculpture in the world, standing 50 ft. (15,2 m.) high and 120 ft. (36,5 m.) wide, and weighing 300 tons[1]. It is housed in Dr. Evermore's Art Park on Highway 12, in the town of Sumpter, in Sauk County, Wisconsin, United States.
The sculpture incorporates two Thomas Edison dynamos from the 1880s, lightning rods, high-voltage components from 1920s power plants, scrap from the nearby Badger Army Ammunition Plant, and the decontamination chamber from the Apollo 11 spacecraft[2]. Its fictional creator, Dr. Evermor, was born Tom Every[3] in Brooklyn, Wisconsin[disambiguation needed ] and is a former demolition expert who spent decades collecting antique machinery for the sculpture and the surrounding fiction that justifies it. According to Every, Dr. Evermor is a Victorian inventor who designed the Forevertron to launch himself, "into the heavens on a magnetic lightning force beam." The Forevertron, despite its size and weight, was designed to be relocatable to a different site—the sculpture is built in sections that are connected by bolts and pins.
In addition to the Forevertron itself, the sculpture includes a tea house gazebo from which Every says Queen Victoria and Prince Albert may observe the launching of Dr. Evermor; it also includes a giant telescope where sceptics may observe the ascent. Dr. Evermor's art park is home to scores of other sculptures, many of which relate to the Forevertron, such as the "Celestial Listening Ear" and the "Overlord Master Control Tower". Other large-scale sculptures include gigantic insects (the "Juicer Bug" and "Arachna Artie"), the "Epicurean" bellows-driven barbecue train, "The Dragon", and "The UFO". The most numerous sculptures are the "Bird Band and Orchestra" which includes nearly 70 birds ranging from the size of a child to twenty feet tall, all made from scrap industrial parts, geological survey markers, knives, loudspeakers, springs, and musical instruments, among other salvaged materials.
Tom Every says he takes pride in allowing the original materials to remain unaltered as much as possible, using their original forms in new juxtapositions to create his aesthetic. While he himself is not often available for tours of the art park, the site can generally be accessed from passing through the surplus store adjacent to it, Delaney's Surplus. Mr. Every also created much of the installation art for the House on the Rock, including the world's largest carousel

These foam water molecule props were made for a museum display. They are painted foam, without hard coating. They have eye hooks inserted for mounting purposes.
A Hong Kong police Toyota SUV for filming. Noticed that the 'police' label and flashing lights were covered, when they're on road or not shooting.
Hero (left) is composed of Robn1 fiberglass shells with John Long innards. The unused JLong shells were built up into a dummy prop.
580ex @ 1/2 through Photek Softlighter II camera right. This is the unedited version, of a recreation of my own baby photo. She is much older than I was when the picture was taken of me which made it very difficult to achieve the exact results. I bought the 1971 Jack-in-the-box off of ebay for about $26 and used wrapping paper for the background. I will show a link to my photo once this is edited.
These are some more scarce hilarious oversized Halloween Costume Prop. They're General Malpractice Hospital, funny face syringe and, um, anal thermometer by Rubies. They're plastic, and the syringe does move up and down (althought difficult). I decline to comment on the anal thermometer with clothespin on his nose. They're 11 inch -12 inches, and I'm not sure when they were sold, but awhile ago. Maybe mid2000-s or 2010's..
