Pic of our kitchen table and chairs. Saarinen tulip table 4ft with white laminate top and black base. Executive side chairs with black metal legs.
Apple Ipad2 with Flashlight App, used as a light table to sort Transparency film in 6x7 format. My favorite use of technology is the one the designers never intended.
Designed by me and mum, carpentry by my uncle
Made of 1/4" glass, 3/4" Narra Ply, 2 lights and some type of knobs my uncle found.
This is actually a combination of all the drafting tables I've seen around SDA and PSID, plus a couple I've seen online.
Parts can be disassembled. (The door to the room's small and the windows have grills so my uncle just figured that this was a nice touch to the design-- makes it portable!)
This is to show my Foot Powered Table saw in use. Now to some it might appear that I am peddling backwards, if I were on a bicycle that would be the case, but this is a table saw and to cut properly the blade has to turn toward you to cut. I have found one advantage to peddling in this manner is that I don’t have as much upper body movement as I have when I peddle as on a bicycle.
The main accessories of the table saw when I use it are the different jigs I made. I have 6 different jigs to cut the 6 different pieces I use in making my craft. I made them out of angle iron and bar stock. They are adjustable for each piece they are designed to cut so that they will cut to a tolerance of .005 when they are set up right.
You will always want to keep a sharp saw blade in this saw at all times or else you will run the risk of overheating the power supply and causing it to stop.
An untested theory on the safety of this saw is that if you hit your finger, your feet stop.
(For every revolution of my feet the blade turns 30 times, so when I peddle at 40 rpm I am getting 1200 rpm’s on the blade. It also has 50 pounds of flywheel to get you over the top and bottom of your peddle stroke.)

We adore this cheerful Garden Party themed Dessert Table we styled for Isetan!
The brief given was Garden Party for the launch of their new Spring collection fashion apparels. We decided to go with a palette of red, greens and wood mixed together with cute little garden friends like the sweet ladybug and adorable caterpillar. Of course you would also expect lots of flowers to be present as well.
The first piece in my CJWD range, this is the Lines Coffee Table made using cherry wood with a maple line detail on the stretcher. The louvre-style 'Lines' are finished with an ivory colour high gloss paint. The floating table top is 10mm toughened glass.
I finished the timber in a hard wax oil.
The design will also be available in walnut with deep red 'Lines'.
Please contact me for more information.

A BLM engine crew uses a sand table to prepare for fighting wildfires. Video by Matt Irving, contractor, BLM NIFC.
Equipment used: Nikon D7000 with Really Right Stuff (RRF) right angle bracket, Nikkor 80-200 f/2.8, mounted on Gitzo 2220 with Acratech ball head, Hari and Son light table
Manual Exposure, ISO 100, F/20, 1/250 sec., focal length 105mm
A Perspex sweep was placed on the light table. The glassware was kept on the sweep. One Elinchrom FXR 200 (with softbox) was placed at the bend of the sweep (from behind) and one Yongnuo flash with a Lumiquest mini softbox (model Promax III) was placed directly under the Perspex sheet below the glassware pointing upwards.
Both the strobes were fired with cam's built-in flash set at 1/128 power in manual flash mode. A Nikon SG-3IR (ever heard of this?) was used to make the camera’s flash output into an IR pulse and hence block all light from this flash. The power output of both the strobes was adjusted to get the right amount light. No reflectors or gobos were used. Wine was diluted (oh my God!) to make it thin and a bit more transparent to light.
Knowing that this going to be tough shot I decided to use, “Master” just a $10 but slightly buggy program which allows remote control of camera with automatic transfer of files to my laptop. This helped a lot as we could see the results on a good monitor instantly.
Once again Kutty RBP played a leading role! He also loaned the Yongnuo flash and Lumiquest soft box. Thanks are due to him and Adi and Jus Sri (see credits below).
Wine glasses are my own but the decanter was loaned to me my good and bird photographer par excellence Rahul Rallan.
After all the effort I am still not very happy. But then there is always another chance!

The classical view of Centre Vale, home to Todmorden Cricket Club. Whirlaw, a well defined gritstone edge offering a mischievously false horizon, provides a scenic backdrop beyond the A646 Burnley road. One former Tod club professional, a South African, rather fancifully compared this view to that of Table mountain from the Cape Town cricket ground. Until 1888, the Yorkshire-Lancashire county boundary bisected the Centre Vale pitch.
Todmorden are batting during the early stages of a five-wicket Lancashire League defeat by East Lancashire. Both sides struggled early in their innings: Todmorden slumped to 69-5; East Lancashire to 84-5. The Blackburn-based visitors came out on top, with a couple of overs to spare, thanks to an unbroken stand worth 84 for the sixth wicket between Mark Lomas (51no) and Niall Boyle (30no).
Match statistics: Todmorden 165 off 45.2 overs (Matt Collins 35, Simon Newbitt 34, Shahrukh Khan 3-35, David Turner 3-37) 1pt lost by five wickets to East Lancashire 168-5 off 48.5 overs (Mark Lomas 51no, Niall Boyle 30no, Matt Collins 3-44) 12pts. Todmorden won the toss and elected to bat. Admission: £4. No programmes. Attendance: 150. Tea: 50p. Victoria sponge: £1.20.
Todmorden Cricket Club were founded in 1837, and have been members of the Lancashire League for more than a century. They have won the league championship on five occasions (the most recent as long ago as 1957) and the Worsley Cup eight times (the last in 2000). A glittering list of former club professionals includes Paul Allott, Brian Close, Mohsin Khan, Francois du Plessis, Fred Root, Frank Tyson and Fanie de Villiers. Over the years, Todmorden have produced six homegrown first class cricketers. Of those, Peter Lever (Lancashire) and Derek Shackleton (Hampshire) played for England. The facilities at Centre Vale are good enough for both Yorkshire and Lancashire to stage Second XI fixtures there.

...unfortunatelly all these plants died after several days of the veranda being covered with a serious ammount of snow.
When it's sunny, we like to push the table to the window and have as much of the woolen carpet as possible for us!
The Table Cape Lighthouse started service in 1888.
It is built from bricks which came from Victoria as ballast.
Materials were brought to the site, from Wynyard 7 kilometres to the south, by bullock wagon.
The light was originally powered by an oil burner and had to be manually tendered.
Bertram Jackson (the younger), son of first keeper Robert Jackson remembers those days:
"The lamp had to be lit every day, as soon as the sun dipped into the sea, and it had to be kept alight all the time until the sun rose again.
There were always three of them as I remember it, and they each took a turn to watch the light.
They used a special oil called mineral colza, which used to be carted up in big drums by bullock wagon.
It was a very clear, white light, and better than kerosene because it caused less soot."
He went on to state that by day, the keepers used to pull heavy curtains round the light house windows, to protect the reflecting lenses from damage by the sun.
The light was converted to vapourised kerosene in around 1913. At this time the manning was reduced from three to two keepers.
Converted to automatic acetylene operation in 1920, the lightkeepers were withdrawn in 1923.
The cottages were demolished in 1926 due to rapid deterioration.
In 1979 major works were undertaken. The lantern room was rebuilt and mains electricity was connected with an electric lamp and standby battery bank being installed.
Less than three weeks after the opening of the light the headkeeper's son, Bertie died at the age of 14 months.
The cause is not known, but it is the cause of a sad entry in the lighthouse log book.
"Wind south. A strong breeze and misty weather. Employed in the lighthouse and cleaning up about station. At 5.10 p.m.
Bertie Jackson, son of the head lightkeeper, departed this life aged one year and two months."
The undertaker struggled up from Wynyard on horse back with the small casket and after consultation with the clergy recommended that Bertie be buried near the lighthouse were his family could tend to his grave.
He was placed in a grave marked by a fuchsia bush. The bush has long since disappeared, but locals who knew the place have recently constructed a memorial.
Meant to post this yesterday, but we got a new sofa set and the resulting chaos delayed it. :-)
Originally this was a Mattel set, in sort of a translucent pink color. Red was the base coat and I used real stain and a fan brush to create the effect.
Lower Table Rock. there are 2 table rocks, Upper and Lower. Up stream of the Rogue River (upper) and Down stream of the Rogue River (lower). on the map: www.google.com/maps/@42.4632259,-122.9346235,6387m/data=!... Upper is on the right, Lower is on the left.
they're both 'U' shaped, this image is the most pronounced south-eastern edge. They are ancient Lava flows, read the Wikipedia about them, fascinating.
