Hercules minus rear wheel recently rescued from dumpster. Requesting anyone with a good estimate regarding date of manufacture to post their info or speculation. The shirfter trigger is an S/A unit, which leads me to suspect manufacture year post Raliegh acquisition. I intend to restore this machine at a later date, after a couple other projects are complete.
The badge on stem says 'Hercules, Birmingham', in case that is a clue.
Images of some of the hundreds of 2D & 3D art pieces created by MRISAR Family Members that are on display at MRISAR.
This original art piece was created by MRISAR's R & D Team Member Victoria Croasdell-Siegel.
In 2010 MRISAR, (a business that has Designed, Fabricated & Marketed the Earth’s Largest Selection of “Internationally Renowned & Awarded, World-Class Robotics Exhibits & Devices”; and “Hands On” Scientific, Technological & Interactive Art Exhibits), purchased a disused school on the plains of North Dakota and relocated to it. Profit from their International Exhibit Sales helps fund their Humanitarian R&D and the transformation of the 36,000 sq. ft. complex, surrounded by 10 acres in North Dakota, into a World-Class “Interactive, Robotics, Technology, Invention, Art & Nature Center”.
Description of MRISAR’s “Interactive; Robotics, Technology, Invention, Art & Nature Center”.
1- Our 7,000 sq. ft. Exhibit Hall will feature; our standard line of interactive robotic & technology exhibits that we sell to Centers world-wide and our exclusive collection of robotic exhibits & devices that we will not sell to anyone else. Our talking Rail Robot Guide will lead visitors through the exhibit hall. Interact with our innovative, lifelike, futuristic, Robotic creations. Examples; Play with & feed Artificial Life forms in a Robot Zoo! Challenge robots with your human intelligence! Interact with otherworldly artistic, interactive, robotic sculptures! It will also feature Responsible Technologies.
2- Our Art Galleries will display the hundreds of pieces of family friendly, original 2D, 3D and Interactive Art that our team has already created, plus have revolving Family Oriented Local Artists Exhibitions.
3- The surrounding 10 acres is slowly being transformed into an Outdoor Interactive Art & Nature Area that will be filled with paths, trees, gardens and kinetic & interactive, solar & wind, technological art sculptures. The emphasis is edible, medicinal & organic landscapes that promote sustainability & health. As of 2015 over 3,000 edible and medicinal trees and shrubs have been planted.
4- We will provide “Special Tours” of behind the scenes areas. Examples are; (a) our Humanitarian & Environmental Research & Development Think Tank Invention labs that feature our R & D Projects. (b) the actual workshops where the attractions are created (similar to visiting the workshops & creations of Jim Henson’s creature shop). (c) a behind the scenes view of the production studio for the web series we are creating called the “Mysterious Lab of Robotics” (our robotic version of “Bill Nye the Science Guy” or “Beakman’s World”). (d) a chance to meet MRISAR’s internationally renowned robotics R & D team. A four member family team who since 2000 has designed, fabricated & marketed the earth’s largest selection of world-class robotic exhibits. The 2 youngest members joined the team as preschoolers.
5- “Public Enrichment Events”. Examples are; (a) special overnight events called “A Night with the Robots” (available no-where else in the world). Families can make reservations to spend the night on the center floor in sleeping bags or cots and experience special robotic demonstrations in a futuristic atmosphere. In recent years “A Night at the Museum” events have become very popular and highly accepted. (b) special classes on robotics for the general public. (c) Robotics Competitions. We are already providing technical assistance to teachers and academic establishments (both in the state and outside of the country), that are trying to enter robotic competitions, but lack the knowledge to fully instruct and inspire their students. A natural progression for this, once we are open for tourism, would be to offer to hold regional, national and international competitions at our location. (d) International conferences regarding Robotics and Beneficial R & D Conferences. (e) Collaborations, enrichment classes and internships in enhanced technologies with higher academic establishments; combining elements such as Cybernetics, Bionics, Mechatronics, Autonomics, Animatronics & Teleoperation.
6- Admission will be free to the underprivileged. We hope to inspire the upcoming generation to create careers in responsible technologies that improve the quality of life.
7- The proceeds from the Center will help fund our R & D and further our creation of a “Prototype Environment, low cost, low impact, self-sustaining, alternative energy powered, Humanitarian & Environmental Research & Development institute with Think Tank Invention labs”. Our purpose is to invent and present responsible, low cost and easy to implement, beneficial humanitarian and environmental based technologies and methods that assist with social, ecological, sustainable and economic solutions. Accomplishing the prototype environment alone requires research & development of new technologies & improvement of existing technologies.
polished stem with BRASSO but it was sanded with 400 grit before to smooth the deep scratches.
update: It's now fitted to my Joe Gardin, I'll do some pictures soon.
UPDATE: I now have a buffer so polishing a stem takes me no more than 15 minutes for a much higher gloss... but I still need to hand sand first. X(
“Naval Air Station Oceana in Virginia Beach, Virginia hosted its annual Air Show drawing more than 280,000 visitors from 25 states and 12 countries over the three day event that is recognized as the Navy’s largest open house in North America. This year, the NAS Oceana Air Show forged a ground-breaking partnership with the Virginia Beach City Public School System (VBCPS) to create a one-of-a-kind “Outdoor STEM Laboratory” on an unprecedented scale. Recognizing the need to highlight career fields in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) to America’s youth, the leadership of NAS Oceana and VBCPS committed to creating this Outdoor STEM Laboratory for every 5th grade student in Virginia Beach during the Friday practice air show on board NAS Oceana. The entire 5th grade class – totaling more than 6,500 students –attended the Friday air show for a full immersion in STEM displays, flying performances, ground static displays and a performance by the U.S. Navy Blue Angels flight demonstration team. The goal was to provide each student at least three meaningful STEM interactions via more than 100 “access points” positioned on the flight line within four STEM zones. These displays were set up to educate and inspire our students to consider STEM fields of study with hands-on experiences in physics, robotics, 3D printing and much more. “

STEAM is an educational approach to learning that uses Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts, and Mathematics as access points for guiding student inquiry, dialogue and critical thinking.
STEAM is an integrated approach to learning which requires an intentional connection between standards, assessments and lesson design/implementation.
Inquiry, collaboration, and an emphasis on process-based learning are the heart of the STEAM approach.
Utilizing and leveraging the integrity of the arts themselves is essential to an authentic STEAM initiative.

Introduction & Overview – Dr. Azeez Aileru
The reason to establish a person’s identity beyond reasonable doubt is crucial in the courtroom. This need is present in both paternity suits and criminal cases. i.e. Which man is the child’s father? Was the defendant at the crime scene? Peoples’ lives depend on the ability of the court to establish a person’s identity. Today, judges and juries turn to forensic science for the answer. DNA fingerprinting is a powerful tool in forensic biotechnology that can definitively identify an individual by analysis of the person’s genetic code.
In these exercises, students will isolate their own DNA, and will identify a fictitious perpetrator of a murder by comparing his DNA to DNA collected from the crime scene (evidence). Students will do this by using the same technique that forensic scientists use – a simple process with the fancy name gel electrophoresis. Electrophoresis means literally “to carry with electricity.”
