This Stand replacing burn of Ponderosa Pine occurred in the Star Gulch fire. Across the road there was a prescribed burn in April of the same year. Most large trees in the prescribed burn area were alive.
Keep Wales Tidy Received funding from Postcode Local Trust to help 2 schools to improve their school grounds for Biodiversity and for educational purposes. These pictures are about the part with Maendy Primary School in Cwmbran, Torfaen. This was planned and delivered by Chris Partridge and Thom Board.
The school were interested in having an orchard, some more wildflowers and they wanted access to their overgrown made safe by replacing the rotted fence. They were interested in building a SuDS platform which was based around their 0 and x's board we made the previous year, but they wanted to have a chessboard and this could be in a dark and very wet unused area of their school grounds near to the forest schools area and pond. We only do these types of activities with schools if the children are fully behind the planning and building of these so they have maximum ownership of everything.
We started with the pond fence, removal was too much for the children, so staff organised a parent's day. This was lovely seeing so many parents join in with their children and grandchildren to take down the fence, stack it carefully and then put in the new one. The old one was made of good sized wood but the ground is so wet that it had rotten away in around 10-12 years. The new fence is guaranteed for 20 years and expected to last 30-45.
Thom then planted some bluebells, snowdrops and wood anemone in and around the log circle area, while a start was made on the frame for the chessboard. The children had to measure the area of the plastic paving and see if the sleepers could fit around it. They then had to measure 2 of the sleepers, which were cut in half. These were then all placed in a square and the children screwed all of the frames together using a variety of cordless handtools. Over a few Thursdays, the children then filled up the insides of the frame with a sub-base by hand using wheelbarrows they assembled themselves. This was then leveled off. A group them marked on the sleepers the edge boundaries of the inner plastic chessboard, so that the chessboard would be in the center of the frame. A thin layer of stone was added to the sub-base and raked flat. The frame was then added onto the stones in the right place. Over 2 sessions, white and black stones were carefully added to each grid alternatively to give the chessboard effect. This was compacted down and on the last session all of the giant chess pieces were filled with stone, sealed and placed on the board for the final group of 8 pupil's had the privilege of the School's first game of chess. Lunchtime came and it ended in a draw. It was really lovely on the final session for the whole class to come out and see what they had all contributed to. It was very easy to see how proud everyone was of this achievement. It could have been done in 2-3 days with contractors and machines, but where's the fun and ownership in that? Mr. Morgan promised that when the weather improves, he'll teach them all how to play chess.
The School's Eco-Committee were given a list of fruit trees from us via the local Garden Centre and they selected 12 of them. These were purchased and delivered and on one Thursday, Thom and some of the pupils planted the orchard at the far end of the school with some peat free compost and nutrients to help them to grow.
The rain just didn't seem to lessen and we delayed and delayed the wildflower seed sowing. We decided that it would be best for Thom to do this part himself to limit the amount of damage to the adjacent grass which which be made by a load of children (see pond fence pics).
The school have a whole load of exciting books and equipment which will help them to explore, monitor and look after all the biodiversity improvements. All of this is thanks to the Postcode Local Trust and players of the Postcode Lottery.

2. Put in garlic cloves into the jar(or bowl) until it's all packed in.
3. Put jar into the microwave and nuke for 2.5 min(It will bubble and overflow so you might want to put a plate or paper towel under the jar)

This is me replacing the light seals and mirror buffer in John Chesshire's 1972 Pentax Spotmatic SP2. Bright sunlight definitely helps. I fixed a piece of card over the shuttter to protect it from the sticky mess which the old seals had become. Yes, that is an Archers mug of tea - can't work without it! I bought the kit of seals and the special little bamboo tool through Interslice on E-bay, and highly recommend them. myworld.ebay.co.uk/interslice
I replaced the rotting planks on the Soo Line freight house platform. I used 2 1/2 thick x 10 in. wide oak boards that a friend and I cut ourselves from logs using his sawmill. Since I can not use creosote I used a wood preservative with black coloring added. The platform is 85 feet long plus a ramp on one end.
Platform 1 at Waterloo station has had a brand new 'bullhead' section rail installed. The Indian Steel company 'TATA' has its name embossed on the side. I was unaware that any new rail of this profile was being produced these days.

The cost of replacing equipment and electronics or dealing with fire after a sudden severe lightning strike is enough inspiration to acquire a proper lightning protection system. Though Our Lightning protection system protects the structure and the electrical systems in the facility, it does not protect the people or operations outside the structure.

This bridge replaced the ferry boat, turn of the 20th century. A modern but ugly concrete bridge replaced this one twenty or so years ago. This was once a toll bridge across the South Branch Potomac River. Due to the '85 flood, a span is missing, so this bridge ends at the middle of the river.

The road surface was replaced in our neighborhood area during the pandemic COVID-19. This is what I saw them doing. A deposed truck drove in front of the road breaker truck. The road breaker truck crushed the old asphalt surface, and suck it through a channel dropping it to the deposed truck. A shovel track cleared up all debris. A sweeping truck made groves on the road.
The roller truck pressed down and leveling the surface. An asphalt pavers truck was laying asphalt on the road. After all, we have a new surface road.
Asphalt is obtained either as a residue from the distillation of petroleum or from natural deposits. The use of asphalt is very old, dating back to its use as a water stop between brick walls of a reservoir at Mohenjo-Daro (about the 3rd millennium BC) in Pakistan. In the Middle East it was extensively used for paving roads and sealing waterworks, important applications
My summer project was to replace the back porch's single narrow steps with two wide sets of stairs. Before and after over about a 3 week period.
"Everyday I fight a war against the mirror - I can't take the person starin' back at me
I'm a hazard to myself
Don't let me get me
I'm my own worst enemy
Its bad when you annoy yourself - So irritating
Don't wanna be my friend no more
I wanna be somebody else"
Don't Let Me Get Me - P!nk
I decided to change the picture that I used for day 7.. It wasn't what I wanted.
So, I dont hate or annoy myself haha The other day, I sat infront of the mirror and didnt recognize the person looking back at me. I'm changing..
It turns out I can just replace the single dodgy piston, it's just that BMW don't sell pistons as separate items, but I'm not going to BMW for my parts in this instance because they wanted £268 just for the seals, sleaves and nipples!!! BiggRed saved the day at ~£75 including the new piston
All parts masked up. piston bores covered and as few threads exposed as possible.
I cleaned the old hoses and bleed nipples and used them to plug the hydraulic connections so that there is paint right up to the start of the threads.
The threads on the carriers will get a quick run through with a tap and some copper grease before they go into storage once the rebuild is complete
This project is replacing the old Lesner Bridge with a signature facility that is capable of handling six lanes of traffic in the future. The replacement bridge structure will be striped for two lanes of traffic and wide shoulders. The inside lane will be 12 feet wide and the inside shoulder will be 6 feet wide. The outside lane will be 14 feet wide and the outside shoulder will be 8 feet wide. Each bridge will also have a 10 foot wide multi-use path for use by pedestrians and recreational cyclists. The proposed bridge will be designed to provide minimum 45 feet vertical clearance above mean high water and 225 feet minimum horizontal clearance at center navigation channel span. This project also includes upgrades to the intersections of East Stratford Street and Vista Circle (the termini for the project), as well as aesthetic upgrades within the project limits.

replaced image with one containing my copyright. everyone decided to hop on the spam wagon on pinterest & now this image is being linked to tons of weight loss sites and free Victoria Secrets panties. Really?? C'mon now.
Soldering a length of wire to the hotshoe, with a plug at the other end that matches one of my cheapie flashes.
Eventually I replaced this temporary lash-up. I found a nice coiled cord ending in a female PC connection; so I just drilled a hole through the top of the camera and soldered its wires to the ones going to the hotshoe.
