As soon as I reached the hamlet of Ralston I could tell I was along the departed Milwaukee Road Pacific Extension again. The sign along the empty right of way carried the familiar format and font. A trail sign here provided plenty of history and information. A historical photo of this place on the sign showed the elevator in use back in 1975. Interestingly, Ralston was home to an old wooden elevator at that time (clad in tin). It would seem this concrete silo was built with just a couple years remaining before the end of rail service.

Ok, so I've got myself a GR.
It's not for the first time, I had a film GR1v but I didn't fancy it much. I struggled with the finder, it was more of a loser for me. It was faded and that sunk all composition for me.
Sold it.
I had a problem though, for work I was carrying two full kits with me and that didn't leave too much space in my hand luggage or my hands for another camera. I wanted something small and decent I could pocket. Re-enter Ricoh.
I've only had it a few days so sure I'm still on honeymoon with it but I love this camera. Sure, the autofocus sucks badly in low light, short battery life and hard to manually focus. Apart from those short comings, it's a great little camera that is a lot of fun to shoot with and looks great.
I love 24-35mm focal lengths for composition nowadays.

As part of the required course knowledge pupils need to be able to outline the process involved in taking a square wooden blank and preparing it for turning between centres. These pictures depict that process chronologically.
Stage 1 * Preparation of wooden blank. Cut to size. Sand square. Mark across diagonals. Centre punch the centre point. Use spring dividers to mark circumference. Repeat on other end.
Stage 2 * Plane off corners down to circumference line. This takes cross section from square to octagon. This reduces force on cutting toll in initial prep of blank. Mount between fork [driven] centre and dead [or live ] centre at tailstock end. Apply grease a dead centre end. apply force from tailstock end to force fork into material at driven end. Adjust toolstock height to suit. Check for clearance.
Stage 3 * Roughout using scraper to diameter. Use combination of gouges and skew chisels to add beads and other decorative detailing as required. Ensure spindle speed is appropriate for material and cross section under consideration. Obey all safety instructions.
