#Dots

 

Another theme, another watch ;) No, seriously, I struggled with finding something interesting with dots, even though for this theme dots can also be small holes or droplets. The original plan was to photograph the hour and minute separator (the colon) on one of my Casios. Although I was a little in doubt if these counted as dots because on a digital watch these "dots" are squares. But when I got really close to the display with the macro lens, I discovered dots of a different kind: the pinpoints of light of the LCD panel. My "dot-finding problems" were solved ;)

 

I assume that the panel used for this display is a TN-LCD (TN = Twisted Nematic) because that is what Casio uses for most of its digital watches while the better STN-LCD panels are reserved for the high-end models. TN-LCD was introduced in 1974, and it is still used even for cheaper (UHD) monitors and such. The display of this watch is a negative one which means that its legibility is not the best, especially because this is also a tone-on-tone coloured display made of a very dark, almost black-ish purple as background and a warm rose-tone for the numbers, etc. And unless there is a light source from above (daylight/sunlight works best) checking the time is a guessing game. But since I never wear this watch at home, only outside, the legibility is still good enough, and I bought that thing for its multicolor bezel anyways (please check the first comment where you can find a detail of said bezel which I'd photographed for our "Low Key" theme in September '22) ;)

 

Setup: The best way to photograph the watch's display was to mount the camera to my repro/copy stand and shoot straight from above. I still had to do some book stacking to get the watch as close to the lens as possible, but that was nothing compared to the days when I had to clumsily balance the table tripod on a (very unsafe) pile of books to be able to shoot straight from above. I also used the Oly's High-Res mode so I would be able to crop out a small part of the image while still retaining a good resolution and a big enough frame. My lightsource was a single photo LED lamp with natural light from the left. Processed in DXO PL6, LR, and Color Efex.

 

In case you wonder what the diamond-shaped symbol in the lower right corner is: it's the "alarm on" indicator, and it blinks a few times every full hour (and the watch bleeps).

was harvested and baled in 2 hours with a single harvester and a tractor towed baler.

 

The high tech of the early 1900s was this huge wooden thresher. Just like its modern counterpart, it separated out the seed from the harvested cereal plant. A steam traction engine towed them into the field. They were stationary and then powered by the engine via a long floppy leather belt. The main drive pully and shaft is at top from which other drive belts radiate.

 

The cut and gathered crop is carried to the thresher and goes into a hopper at top. From there it is feeds to a rotating drum with blades bearing against a curved plate. The plant is torn apart and most kernels separate out. The remainder, straw and chaff walk over a succession of vibrating screen and sieve separators. Finally, the air blower at left cleans the kernels before bagging. In action they rock gently to the soft sounds of the slapping belt, tapping wood and chuffs of the traction engine..

 

East Anglia was, and still is, a major cereal growing region and was a centre for manufacture of the necessary agricultural machinery. William Foster of Lincoln was respected for its threshers and also made traction engines, steam tractors and Showman’s engines. Burrells of Thetford in Norfolk and Garrett in Suffolk were other major players amongst many others

Sunken Garden Waterwheel

The Sunken Garden Waterwheel from the side close up.Built in 1911, the waterwheel was donated to the city by Mrs H H Phillips of Te Rehunga in Dannevirke. First used on the farm to power a milk separator and butter churn, it was subsequently harnessed for shearing, sawing wood and pumping water.

 

In 1915, it was coupled to a dynamo, generating electricity for the Phillips' six-roomed house for the next 15 years - seven years before authorities provided power onto the property.

 

In 1967, Napier Round Table moved the wheel from its original wooden bearings and it was then renovated to install in the Sunken Garden.

Excerpt from cushmanwakefield-fi.translate.goog/toimitilat/helsinki/ka...:

 

Eteläesplanadi 24: The windows overlook Mannerheimintie, Eteläesplanadi and Erottajankatu. This is a classic beauty and a spectacular landmark in the Separator Corner. This is your choice when you are looking for a stylish and representative office in a spectacular location in the heart of Helging. The magnificent building was designed by Theodor Höijer. The angle of the separator is full of decorative and stopping details. The valuable property, completed in 1893, is in a great location at the intersection of the Separator and the Esplanade in the Haue district.

Gulf of Georgia Cannery

 

Built in 1894, the cannery echoes the days when it was the leading producer of canned salmon in British Columbia. Today it is a museum with interactive exhibits, film, and tours that demonstrate the Cannery's important role in the history of Canada's West Coast fishing industry.

 

History

Early years

The cannery opened in 1894, in the boomtown of Steveston on the lower Fraser River. It was the largest cannery in British Columbia until 1902. It was known as the "Monster Cannery" - packing more than 2.5 million cans of salmon in 1897. Each canning season attracted a workforce of hundreds of workers, usually of First Nations, Chinese, Japanese, and European descent. At the time, fish canning was one of British Columbia's largest employers, and produced one of its principal export commodities.

 

Advancing technology

Over the years, the hordes of people manually canning salmon gave way to rows of high-speed machinery. For the Gulf of Georgia Cannery, the price to pay for these advancements would be a diminished role in the canning of salmon, as the last can of sockeye rolled off the production line in 1930. Then, the British Columbia Fishing and Packing Company and Gosse Packing Company Limited merged, forming British Columbia Packers Limited, an amalgamation of the other canneries in the community.

 

World War 2

The Gulf of Georgia Cannery remained quiet during the 1930s, but with the outbreak of the Second World War in Europe, the Cannery was revitalized by an onslaught of new capital and expansion in anticipation of a new enterprise, namely herring. New machinery and an army of workers produced case after case of canned herring in tomato sauce, the major source of protein for Allied soldiers and civilians struggling overseas during the war. Herring canning became an industry-wide endeavour and alongside it grew the business of herring reduction, that is, the transformation of herring into protein-rich oil and meal for animal feeding purposes.

 

Post war

The end of the war meant the end of a market and the end of herring canning in British Columbia. For the Gulf of Georgia Cannery, herring reduction would become the predominant activity by the late 1940s. The rise of this industry is reflected by the growth of the Cannery complex which saw three successive waves of expansion before the herring reduction industry was crippled by overfishing and government closure in the late 1960s. By the 1970s, a new market emerged in Japan for British Columbia herring roe and this ensured that the reduction operation at the Cannery would run once more. However, the new roe industry generated only a small amount of raw material for reduction, as catches formerly in the hundreds of thousands of tonnes were limited by regulation to the low tens of thousands.

 

Closure

By 1979, the cost of operating the Cannery's aging reduction equipment became too much and the reduction plant was closed. The buildings would serve as a net loft and storage for the Canadian Fishing Company's boat fleet and the era of transforming the Cannery into a museum would begin in earnest.

 

National Historic Site

During the 1970s and early 1980s the local community lobbied various levels of government to save the Cannery. In 1979 the Federal government purchased the property and in 1984 it was transferred to Parks Canada. The building was first open to the public in 1994 in celebration of the centennial of the building. The Gulf of Georgia Cannery Society, a local not-for-profit organization, was formed in 1986 to work together with Parks Canada to develop and operate the site. Today, the Cannery is one of the very few federally owned National Historic Sites operated by a third party.

John Deere CTS

Zum Zeitpunkt des Verkaufsstarts reihte sich John Deere als dritter Anbieter in die Produktion von Tangential-Rotor-Mähdreschern ein. Das bedeutet, dass das geerntete Gut zunächst tangential durch das Dreschwerk und im Anschluss axial durch zwei Rotoren geleitet wird. Die 66 cm Dreschtrommel mit 10 Schlagleisten verfügt über einen 110° Korbumschlingungswinkel und misst eine Trommelbreite von 1,4 m. Die Bezeichnung CTS verdankt der John Deere Mähdrescher den mit Zinken versehenen Abscheiderotoren (engl: Cylinder Tine Separator). Die Besonderheit bei dieser Art des Dreschwerks liegt in der exzentrischen Anordnung (Sechs-Uhr-Position) der Zinkenrotoren. Dadurch bekommt das Stroh nach oben mehr Freiheit und kann effektiver gelockert werden um die Abscheidung zu erhöhen. Der anschließende Guttransport erfolgt axial über spiralförmige Leitleisten. Das besondere hierbei ist, dass lediglich Zinken auf den Rotoren sitzen. Bei anderen Herstellern findet man hier oft noch Leitschienen. Die gegenläufige Zuführtrommel, die das Erntegut von oben auf die Zinkenrotoren wirft ist eine weitere Besonderheit des CTS. Außerhalb der Ernteleistung ist vor allem das einfache Entkoppeln der Antriebsverbindung zu den Winkelgetrieben zu erwähnen. Innerhalb von 30 Minuten lassen sich dadurch die Rotoren für Reinigungs- und Wartungsarbeiten austauschen. Besonders in anspruchsvolleren Einsatzgebieten wie zum Beispiel bei der Reis- und Maisernte ein echter Vorteil. Ein weiterer Vorteil gegenüber Mähdreschern anderer Bauarten ist, dass nicht vollständig gedroschenes Gut noch ein weiteres mal nachgedroschen werden kann. Das spart vor allem Umrüstzeiten, denn beispielsweise beim Maisdreschen benötigt er keine Zwischenbleche. Insgesamt bietet der Korntank des John Deere CTS Platz für 10 m³ Erntegut. Die Korntankentleerung erfolgt per Fußtaster. Als weitere Besonderheit präsentiert John Deere einen Siebkasten mit Vorabscheidung. Das Schnittwerk des CTS misst eine Breite von 7,6 m . Die Rotordrehzahlen von 740 und 570 Umdrehungen lassen sich mit einigen Handgriffen und unter Hinzunahme von Werkzeug beliebig variieren. Der Motor erbringt eine Gesamtleistung von 330 PS / 243 kW. Während des Abtankens erhöht der Motor für das Weiterfahren mit unverminderter Geschwindigkeit seine Leistung noch einmal um 34PS / 25 kW (John-Deere-Powerboost). Die Kabine des John Deere CTS gestaltet sich als sehr übersichtlich und bietet dem Fahrer, auch nicht zuletzt durch den sehr ruhigen Lauf der Maschine, während der Arbeit angemessenen Komfort.

Egg Separator (Inside POV)

  

Diameter is 63.5mm / 2.5”

This is my 4th building in my galaxy far away.

The design is reminiscent of a temple but is a residential building in a galaxy far away.

The building is completely round and has 3 floors. It stands on a main column with a lift in the middle and 6 supporting pillars.

The size of this model is:

Diameter about 38 cm

Height about 58 cm.

There are approx. 4500 bricks and 96 of them are Lego bricks separators

A Vic Viper built for DigiLUG's November Monthly Challenge. The theme was Legacy Colours, and it's actually quite hard to make a cohesive colour scheme with only colours that hadn't been used in the past 10 years.

 

The idea of using brick separators comes from an earlier WIP from this summer.

 

You can see the 3D model on Mecabricks.

This has been on my to-build list for a long time. Finally got around to it!

 

Some mildly crazy angles. I got over that by not attaching a lot of stuff, like the entire straight part of the wall. Of course then the unattached stuff tends to move around... oh well, can't have everything go just right can you?

 

Brick separator roof was my brother's idea and I was surprised by how good it looked.

 

It took me four days of building, build log (and more pictures) on my blog.

Nichols and Shepard Co. was an American partnership company which manufactured farm machinery, steam engines and mill machinery.

 

In 1848, John Nichols opened a blacksmith shop in Battle Creek, Michigan, where he began making various farm tools for local farmers.[1] He built his first thresher/separator in 1852.[1] The business was successful, so in the 1850s he joined with David Shepard to form a partnership known as Nichols, Shepard and Company which manufactured farm machinery, steam engines and mill machinery.[2][1]

 

The first thresher/separator of small grains (largely wheat and oats) was developed in about 1831 by the Pitts brothers—Hiram and John Pitts of Buffalo, New York.[3] However, this early thresher, called the "ground hog," was quite unlike the conventional thresher/separators that developed since that time. For instance, the ground hog's separating unit was largely a slatted apron which pulled the grain across a screen.[2] John Nichols and David Shepard realized that the apron style separator was not a technology that was going to work. Consequently, in 1857, the Nichols and Shepard Company developed the first "vibrator" separating unit for the small grain thresher.[2] This vibrator-style of separator soon became universally adopted by all other thresher/separator manufacturers. The Nichols and Shepard Company received a patent from the United States government for their "Vibrator" grain separator on January 7, 1862.[2] The company also obtained a number of other patents for other advances in the thresher/separator technology, for original improvements in steam engine traction technology.[2] During the 1920s, the Nichols and Shepard Company developed a successfully functioning corn picker.

 

In 1929 the Nichols and Shepard Company was acquired by the Oliver Farm Equipment Company. Thus the 'corn picker' became the direct ancestor of the Oliver cornpicker.[4]

A lot of dilapidated country barns hold one man's junk and another man's treasure as evidenced by this failing structure that serves as a parking spot for an old pickup and a cream separator and if you dared to venture further there is probably more items inside. Older people hold memories of how things were in the past and the wise younger person quietly draws them out.

Radiohead - Separator

My entry to Swebrick Brick Challenge for October 2021. This months piece was the Brick and Axle Separator 96874.

A tall metal-capped silo stands like a protectorate behind a medium-sized, weathered dairy barn, its wooden siding turned silver by decades of a relentless sun and strong Minnesota winds. An entry milk-house with an open door is a reminder of the days when a small farmer could provide both milk and cream for his family and have extra to sell when an insulated milk truck would make its pickups a couple of times per week.

 

Those days of market simplicity came to an end as government agencies began to put an increasing number of regulations on milk products coming from individual farms. The first national Pasteurized Milk Ordinance was released in 1924. Initially, it was voluntary and set standards for milk safety and overall barn cleanliness.

 

This ordinance encouraged farmers to upgrade equipment, develop better sanitation, and deliver their milk to be pasteurized.

 

In the 1950s, I helped carry heavy cream cans full of separated cream out of the barn a few yards to a small cooling tank full of freshly pumped deep-well water. But, those days largely came to an end later in the 1950s as local creameries required farmers to cool milk quickly and have the milk delivered in bulk rather than in cans.

 

Muscle developing hand-cranked cream separators quickly became relics as centralized creameries and co-ops demanded more uniformity and safety from their providers.

 

In the 1960s-70s, most states began requiring routine inspections of dairy farm operations. Those farmers who chose not to modernize with sanitary milking parlors, refrigerated bulk tanks, and clean water supplies soon lost their contracts with creameries.

 

Now, many of the old dairy barns like this one lean gently in the waning evening light, roofs sagging under the weight of time. Silos cast their long shadow across quiet fields, where no cattle sounds echo and no voices call out.

 

Most of the original farmers who built these barns have long since passed, but in faded scenes like this, there lives a whisper of their devotion. A farm was their beginning, the doorway to an unlimited future.

 

As the world moved on and left them behind, their dreams now only find a home in the dim memories of their descendants.

Replacing oin in the Rohloff hub requires a short ride in 3rd and 5th gears. So I also tested the modified cabling for the dynamo. I added separators to the cables so the bike can be correctly separated once again - the cable to the rear light used to prevent the separation of the bike.

A BIG Thank you to Fairy ™ & ~ ♥.5.ö.ö.5.α. ♥ ~ for the help they gave me, it worked =D and it wasn't easy.

[No Edit] I only added the signature and the separator line.

 

P.S:

Comments with pics will be deleted =) thanx.

I built this set of vehicles for @lolugclub’s Iron Builder challenge, using the orange pumpkin as the seed piece. And of course I threw in the brick separators like I usually do!
