I'm not about to replace my SL-1700 with this thing, but for a mid-range turntable it's pretty nice. And, it's the first fully automatic Technics I found for my collection. Even though the dust cover is busted and it didn't come with a headshell, it's not a bad deal for a sawbuck. It has a plastic plinth but it's thick and solid and the platter is as heavy-duty as you would expect to find on higher end turntables.
Even though this turntable is fully functional and sounds great it does need some cleaning, minor adjustments and repair. There's some strange grounding issue; when I touch the tonearm or even the finger grip on the headshell, it'll produce a hum. And of course the pitch adjustment and a few other parts could use a few squirts of electrical contact cleaner.
Emmet checks with the operator before sending the machine out to work.

An infographic on the cleanup efforts over the next 40 years at Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station in Japan. The process includes inspection and scrubbing robots, containment of radioactive water used to cool the leaked radioactive fuel, freezing the ground to prevent contamination of ground water and removal of spent fuel rods in pools above the reactor.

After the mobile crane, I figured I'd try a slightly more "Technic" oriented model - the LEGO Technic 4x4 Crawler (model 9398).
At this point in the build, the kit is actually 100% functional. The motors are remote-controlled (IR), and everything's connected.
However, it's a bit sparse, so you get some "trimming" in the kit to make the car look nice.
First up, wheel "wells" and door wings. I don't like how they're black/orange at the fron but white at the back, so I might buy the while pieces as black pieces at some point.

I have a whole collection of Lego Technic models. Yesterday I decided to get them out again and put one together. I chose this plane and it took me about twenty minutes to finish it.

Mechanics to adjust the main rotor blades pitch. This is working fine when sitting idle. Rotating blades (with a motor) cannot be adjusted as the mechanism relies on gravity. When running the blades on higher speed the blades generate such a centrifugal force that they won't adjust :-)
LAFD Urban Search and Rescue companies took part in a simulated underground tunnel rescue working with the Los Angeles Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) at the Regional Connector Transit Corridor. Tunnel construction creates many potential dangers which makes a well coordinated technical rescue crucial to the success of any incident.

I was given three rolls of 35mm Kodak Technical Pan (expired 2002). I hunted around for a development scheme and finally settled on this. Mostly because I had Rodinal. I'm only posting in case some of you still have some in the fridge.
16 EI
Rodinal 1+150 for thirteen minutes
Agitate with 30 seconds initial inversions, then 3 inversions at 10 minutes,7 minutes,4 minutes, and 1minute counting down. (every 3 minutes)
Regular stop, fix and hypo.
I used 5ml of Rodinal in 750ml of H2O. That gives less than the recommended 10ml of Rodinal but the negatives really look great (full tone scale).
I had to figure out a curve profile as I felt (and still do) that the midtones were not right. Technical Pan is also a dust magnet; lots of healing tool. Even with Rodinal there is virtually no grain.
The Grade II Listed former Sheffield Boys School (later the Central Technical School), now one of the frontages of Leopold Square in Sheffield, South Yorkshire.
Leopold Square is a mixed use development located at the corner of Leopold Street and West Street. The development, by Ask Developments and Gleeson's in collaboration with local architects AXIS Architecture, comprises the refurbishment of the former Central Technical School buildings built between 1870 and 1894. The development also has a new angular building to house a bar and a restaurant, and the creation of a brand new public square. The redevelopment of the old buildings began in 2004 following years of use as council offices after the closure of the Schools.
At an awards ceremony held at the Showroom on 16 February 2011, the scheme won the People's Award as part of the Sheffield Design Awards 2010 - an event sponsored by Sheffield Civic Trust and RIBA Yorkshire every two years.
The public square is surrounded by the original buildings from the old technical school and a dynamic new building fronting onto West Street. These buildings house 9 individual bars and restaurants and the 4 star hotel. The square is marked with an illuminated water feature and a tree lined square. Benches specially designed for the square have been cast by an artist out of Bronze and will provide resting places under the trees around the central square. The new angular building is built from locally sourced stone and genuine bronze cladding.
To the west of the site the smaller former school buildings have been converted to residential use and the new apartments surround a private courtyard. The apartments are unusual and often occupy double height spaces and contain retained existing features. The entrance to the Holly Building on Holly Street is particularly noteworthy for it ornate timber vestibule.

Part of No 1 School of Technical Training (No 1 SoTT) at RAF Cosford, 238 Squadron have a fleet of SEPECAT Jaguar GR1 and GR3 aircraft, which are used for Aircraft Maintenance Mechanic training. With many thanks to staff of 238 Sqn, I was allowed to photograph the Jaguar aircraft at will, predominantly to provide the detail for a forthcoming 1/48 scale 54 Sqn Jaguar that is being made for me, the first aircraft that I worked on at RAF Coltishall after completing my tech training back in the early 80’s.
