people add scale to the shot...set waves would roll smoothly through the point only to end up unleashing their fury on the beach
Sorry. couldn't resist that. This fine model of a dredger was part of the exhibition being held at Crossness engines. It is radio controlled and practically every feature of the ship works from the various conveyors to the suction dredge itself. I have seen the full size ship in Shoreham harbour several times.
My friend Carew on Facebook asked me about n scale people in regards to my post last night of putting together a n scale building under construction model that I have lots planned for. I photographed one of my n scale workers and a wheel barrow, cement mixer, etc...in looking through the people I have and realized I don't have enough n scale workers to fill out this construction project. I'm going to order a few more. I do have lots of other things though such a garbage cans, crates, dumpers but I'm leaving out the best details until I finish the model and post photos of it. I'm really excited about this project. I think it will end up being my favorite models. 😃

W. Butcher & Sons Carbine nº 3a Quarter Plate folding camera with Aldis Uno Anastigmat f/7.7 (to f/45) set in a Lukos II shutter (25, 50, 100, B, T).
The camera has a dual back that accepts either 122 format film or a plate back. Both camera body and back have matching serial numbers (B42082). A wooden take-up 122 film spool (Kodak) is included.
The unit seems to date to roughly around World War I. A unit shown in a 1914 catalogue, which list this shutter and lens combination for the quarter plate format has minor differences, in particular the finger holds for pulling out the front standard.
A neat touch is a small padded section on the front door that protects the lens when the camera is closed
The camera carries the model name (Carbine Nº 3a) embossed into the leather handle, but is badged with a metal tag reading "Carbine J.W.Small Australia" on one side and on the other carries the metal tag "T.A. Dickson Photographic Stores Geelong".
J.W. Small was a 'camera supply store' in business from about 1871 to the 1920s, with successors operating until after World War II. At the time this camera was distributed, J.W. Small had stores in Sydney and Melbourne.
T.A. Dickson was a chemist in Geelong who sold photographic supplies in quantities, but it would appear as a side-line to his pharmaceutical interests.

I've drawn the outline of the 40 foot figure on the side of the studio building. it comes near to the top.
___
- Marco told me that they couldn't set up the 40 foot figure inside the studio. he said the head would barely fit inside the dome but the rafters would interfere with the shoulders and the left arm.

- Lloyd says it is a little smaller than the building.
- the building is shaped like an airplane hanger but there is no big door on the other side. it was a Navy warehouse, probably.
- for scale, that's my beautiful red car- a gift from my Mother.
When it's not escorting helium cars this usaf hopper can be spotted moving loads of sand or ballast on the USAF's property on Cape Canaveral. This load of sand was dredged from the various waterways of the facility allowed to dry and then transported to individual launch complexes for use in/on the complex's blast house.
Just my shot at creating an imaginary scenario as a description
In reality sand was dredged but the dredged sand was used to create the land that the titan 3's launch complex sits on
