The Flickr Lounge-Its A Bargain
Found this at an indoor flea market in Albuquerque, NM. It was very inexpensive.
Before the introduction of calculators, we had to carry out mathematical calculations in long hand on paper, use log tables, or slide rules.
This picture shows two slide rules of different size, and a selection of scale rulers used by draughtsmen, the six inch rulers and slide rules with the names of engineering firms on them were often given away as presents at Christmas.
The twelve inch slide rule dates from the 50s and was used for many years in a government office.

Rare, coastal (?) dove. Photo was taken through a shipping dock's chain-link fence where public access was not allowed.

Picked up this pull back toy at VW/Audi Show and go. Very cheaply made, but makes up for that in style. Pull back works, but tire swap was done and rims covered in some plastic goop.

Hey guys, it's Jack here again. First and foremost, I'd like to say that I hope everyone is doing well during these unprecedented times, and, if not, know my heart is with you. However, I know that we can all get through this together! Personally, quarantine hasn't been all bad for me, and I am very thankful since I know many have it far worse. One of the benefits that have emerged from this period of isolation is more time to work on LEGO. And this -- the renowned TBF Avenger aircraft -- is one such LEGO creation that was built at the start of my quarantine.
The TBF Avenger was an American, single-engined naval bomber built in the 1940s -- first seeing action in the Battle of Midway, 1942. The main aircraft that specialized in torpedo bombing for the U.S. Navy prior to Pearl Harbor was the Douglas TBD Devastator -- a severely out-of-date aircraft that was noted by many to be largely obsolete by the time the U.S. entered World War II. A year or so before the United States went to war, however, engineers and Grumman were hard at work on putting together a replacement for the Devastator that would become the TBF Avenger. With an aft-facing ball turret for defense, a potential to carry 2,000 pounds of ordinance, and a wing-span of over 54 feet, she certainly was a heavy beast of a plane. In fact, it was the heaviest single-engined aircraft of World War II. It also had a crew of three (a pilot, rear gunner, and radioman/bombardier), and sported hydraulic-powered folding wings, to conserve space on the decks of carriers. Unfortunately, however, its debut was quite rough: out of the six Avengers that were present at Midway, five were shot down, with the sole returning aircraft having its turret gunner killed, and its pilot and radioman injured. Despite this concerning performance, Avengers still did well throughout the war with the U.S. Navy, sinking Japanese warships, submarines, and enemy cargo vessels. Powerful, cunning, and beastly, the Avenger certainly was its own sort of icon of Naval aviation through much of the war.
The model itself features a functioning bomb bay, space for a minifigure in the pilot's position, functioning landing gear, and foldable wings. It was quite difficult to pack the features exhibited in the real aircraft, and, unfortunately, I had to make some compromises (the bomb bay having a central divider to close up the gaps between the two, opening doors, the turret not being able to pivot, etc.). However, I am relatively satisfied with the result; sometimes, in LEGO, you just need to make compromises conforming to the scale in what you are building -- in order to not sacrifice the look, presence and shaping the model has. Regardless of my thoughts though, let me know yours! Comments, faves, and constructive criticisms -- as always -- are highly appreciated!
LDD sketch of mini figure scale Scania T144 tow truck. Latlug member Rolands has created large scale version of this vehicle so here comes one in minifig scale made by Peteris from Latlug.
I've just been doing a clean up of my hard-drive, getting rid of old photos, and came across this photo of a female Adder. I love the diamond pattern of an Adder's scales on it's back and this particular female had very striking colours and markings.
This scale and brick were sitting on a stand that was supposed to offer roasted chestnuts to the patrons on our Main Street holidays events. At Thanksgiving, the word chestnut was covered with a sign that said Wassail. I still found this scene attractive, in a real old skool kinda way. The Leica R4 and Elmar-R 100mm macro lens with HP5+ made for a nice image.
