Lots of chimney stacks on the roofs but nowadays many homes do not have coal burning fires! I took this during my walk into Troon, this morning and it was very cold with a strong wind blowing from the sea but you do not see smoke rising from the chimney pots!

Diese 5 Golfbälle in Balance stand auf einem Ceramikkochfeld und es ist wieder einen persönlichen Rekord von mir.
I made a large bunch of randomly stacked buttons... I love having these ready to use. I have been neglecting my buttons... time to play with them again!
Drystone wall on the approach to Levant Mine on the Atlantic Coast of Cornwall.
The chimney stack in the background is part of the remains of the compressor and power house.
More impressive than the depth of the mines at Levant, is that they extend so extensively under the ocean. With the old style of digging only where the valuable material can be found, the tunnels actually extend back up from the lower levels beneath the sea bed.
It is said that at certain levels in bad weather it was possible to hear the rocks on the sea bed moving about above the mine.
Two UP Stack trains meet in Traver, CA. This is a small town of about 700 people along the SR-99 "valley" corridor of the Central Valley of California. Traver is known for its grain exports.
Today these two stack trains waste no time blazing through town, even with an older Southern Pacific (now UP) loco second out on the Westbound (Compass North) train.

This is why I stack multiple frames for my pictures of jupiter.
From left to right:
1) A typical single frame
2) After stacking 95 frames
3) After wavelet sharpening in registax and some brightness/contrast adjustment.

A sure sign of civilization. Only a human would stack rocks like this. I like stumbling upon little impromptu things like this.
The polymer clay beads for these earrings were inspired by the dry stone walls of Cumbria. I wrote about them on my blog: fulgorine.wordpress.com/2015/08/01/slate-stack-earrings/
Rubbermaid Stackable Recyclers make recycling easy! Three sizes can be stacked and interchanged to suit your sorting needs. The flip door makes unloading recyclables a breeze. Stickers allow you to label your bin so you can see if you are sorting glass, paper, plastic, etc. The hood snaps securely to the base so you can transport your recyclables to a facility if necessary.

We passed these three stacked trucks on the interstate. They looked like they were mating. I thought it was pretty weird
This is another type of rail fence. The rails are stacked on top of each other with the ends overlapping. The rails are held in place by a secured post on each side of the overlapping ends. This style is more permanent than the zigzag Virginia rail fence.
I'm having a great time with the leftover stacked fabrics! I'm going to try the five in the picture on the lower right, using the ten degree ruler. The five quilt tops shown are the ones I used these fabrics in originally.
Carmen stacks her winter wood... She layers the wood - two rows of soft fir which comes from the land, and then two rows of oak. The fir is mostly for kindling and starting the fire and the oak is also split into smaller pieces which burn hot and heat up the cookstove. Carmen has used a cookstove for thirty years. She cooks all her meals on it and the cookstove warms the house and saves on fuel costs.
We like thick layers when we 3D-print!
We 3D-modelled a candy bowl and a stackable box to test 3D-printing objects using thick layers. Normally the diameter of a 3D-printer’s nozzle is 0.4 mm. We drilled this bore up to 1.0 mm - which allowed for more plastic flow and thicker layers.
The results are stronger objects and also an exaggeration of the step features of the layers. Surface smoothness is not so relevant for many objects and by making thick layers they can become a nice feature - specially for decorative.
You can download the STL files for our candy bowl and stacking box below.
Love this Reading Stack idea. It's like a little diary of my reading. With that in mind, here is a list of books I'm aspiring to read in the next while.
Gypsy Guitar by David McFadden - I've read this poetry collection before and will likely read it again and again. The one with the elephants is wonderful...
Mandala Symbolism by Jung - something to apply to my bead making perhaps, perhaps more
The Madman and the Professor by Simon Winchester - the story behind the making of the Oxford English Dictionary
On Writing Well by William Zinsser - something to help me hone by own writing skills
Sex and Death to the Age 14 by Spalding Gray - just listened to his monologue 'Monster in a Box' so will follow up with this
The Poems of Catullus - these poems by the Roman born ?84 B.C., bitchy, erotic, wistful, could have been written yesterday
Singing At the Whirlpool by Miodrag Pavlovic - a collection of poetry
Fludd by Hilary Mantel, to follow up 'Beyond Black' from my last stack, which I loved
Mona Lisa Overdrive by William Gibson, some more mod speculative (science) fiction
Flashman in the Great Game by George MacDonald Fraser - another installment of the adventures of the cowardly racist, sexist bastard - a decidedly post-colonial view of the British Empire, and a great rousing adventures so far
Going Postal by Terry Pratchett - more Pratchett!
Pigs Have Wings by P.G. Wodehouse - more of the Blandings, light spright and effortless
So I guess we'll see which ones I actually get around to reading.
