Another shot from my trip to Scale Haw Force, Hebden, North Yorkshire - beautiful at any time of year!
A pair of Vernier Calipers, handy to measure the internal or / and external dia of tubing.
To comply with the Group's rules I have only photographed the top 7 cms of this piece of equipment.

I had an opportunity to explore remnants of the historic BQ Ranch in western Wyoming. This ranch is so big that it even had its own Post Office at one time. Now the old houses and other buildings are deserted but the ranch is still in business as the Willis Ranch. I went there with Jim on a day that was so muddy we were concerned about getting stuck on the road in, but it was well worth it. My favorite thing there was this ancient scale once used for weighing livestock. The "scale house" is disintegrating around it and I wouldn't be surprised if it collapses in another couple of snowy years.

This year marks the 200th birthday of this great Austrian composer. Here you can see the Bruckner bust in Vienna's Stadtpark, which was unveiled three years after Bruckner's death.
Bruckner ‘was an Austrian composer of the Romantic period as well as an organist and university teacher. Only recognised by his contemporaries late in life, he was nevertheless one of the most important and innovative composers of his time and his works had a great influence on music history well into the 20th century.
His most important and probably best-known compositions are his large-scale eleven symphonies.’

Another day with a forecast of low cloud and >95% chance of rain. In these conditions there isn't much else other than fast flowing rivers that are worthwhile capturing.
Today, we travelled to Buttermere via Cockermouth and Crummock Water to reach the foot of Scale Force, a huge waterfall that sits in a gorge on red pike and feeds Crummock Water via Scale Beck. It's actually the tallest waterfall in the Lake District at 170ft tall.
I've been to Buttermere a number of times and never seen Scale Force flowing as quickly as it was today. We could even hear it from over 1/2 a kilometre away.
Looks like there's a path way down at the bottom of the valley overlook - too bad we didn't get a chance to shoot down there during the workshop. Could have been cool. I loved this little tree all on its own.
Coming back down Mellbreak I diverted to Scale Force waterfall.. what you can see is the small bottom drop of the waterfall, the main part of the fall can be seen in the background..
the shot is hand held, trying to get a bit of motion blur.. I took a few and this was the one that came out best :-)

One factor in what i call "true minifig scaling" is not to just keep the minifig height in mind, but also the fact that the original minifigs low hip joints might create the impressions of tires being "too large" for a vehicle. I also forget that fact myself sometimes, since i often place minifigs next to my vehicles. However, if you keep using the realistically proportioned "human fig" as a template next to your MOC, selecting the right tires/rims for your vehicles wont be any trouble.
My first stab at a smaller scale vehicle. The design is 100% my own and I plan an using it for a bigger project, which I may or may not finish. It doesn’t quite look right, but just enough to pass as an M48. I need to reshape the turret rear and possibly switch to a larger barrel for the commanders cupola.
EB CN grain train G898 is on its knees as it climbs out of the Mississippi River valley. The train is cresting the highest elevation on the railroad ( in the state of Illinois ) at Scales Mound. The train could be heard 15 minutes before it arrived. Thanks to Craig for the intel.
I would have preferred a 50mm shot off the road bridge that I am on, but there is a thick wire going across the tracks. I am standing on the roof of my truck, in order to get above the wire. No way to get below the wire.
