my second attempt - the first one I didn't stabilize enough and it pulled in too much. Maybe a little more on the thread painting side then thread sketching? I got a little carried away! I'm thinking I may paint in a little colour ...

Fiber art quilt with black fabric border (not shown). Wall hanging made from fabric, yarn, threads, quilted and embroidered
Here's a shot of the cam chain finally threaded under the main drive gear within the lower end. It took threading two guitar strings through the ends of each side of the cam chain, then creating a loop on on end, bending it around, then feeding it deep underneath and grabbing it on the other end with a hooked tool.
Of course, the cam chain roller (in between the two pistons). Removed by two 10mm bolts.
This entire process was very tricky in the sense that it took four synchronized hands all working together in unison to handle start to finish.
More experimental strobist work, this time cotton threaded through a needle.

After finding it on our garden wall earlier in the week, now I'm seeing it everywhere! Another forest of tiny red and green snowdrop-like 'flowers' (soporophytes).
Followed these guys (Threads), around with my camera all day. Was meant to be helping them out by doing some filming but photos did a happen. Granted I did some filming but I was more interested in getting some shots. First ever photos i've done like this, i'd say I did ok considering!
A fine cord of cotton or other fibrous material is spun out to a considerable length, especially when it is composed of two or more fibers twisted together.

Rather than trace tack as Claire Shaeffer suggests I tailor tack the seam and placement lines using a double thread of soft cotton.
I shall trace tack the centre front mark. I begin by placing several pins (marked with arrows) along the CF line…
I don't know what the hell this is but it looks like a blob of mud suspended on a single spiderweb thread. It was hanging in mid air about 5 foot up in a green house I was working in today.
International Women’s Day to be celebrated at the Senedd
The National Assembly for Wales will mark International Women’s Day today (8 March) - a global celebration of the achievements of women - with a series of events across the Assembly estate. In the Senedd, Deputy Presiding Officer Rosemary Butler AM will speak at a ‘world cafe’ event, organised by the British Council and training course-provider Women Making a Difference. The world cafe will see women telling stories of the many women who have made history across the globe during the last 100 years – including those who’ve played a part in women’s rights and displayed acts of courage and determination. Exhibitions from equality organisations MEWN Cymru, Chwarae Teg, Merched y Wawr, Women’s Archive Wales and Self Help Africa will also be displayed in the Senedd to mark the day. In the Pierhead, the Women’s Arts Association will hold an event including a performance from female dance group India Dance Wales and a clog dancer. The Association will also launch a textile exhibition that will be displayed in the Pierhead’s Futures Gallery. The exhibition - Bonded by Threads: Old Crafts by Modern Women – will showcase the work of Welsh female artists. The day will also see the Assembly launch a competition to decide on a Welsh female hero from the past to be displayed in the ‘heroes room’ at the Pierhead from a shortlist which can be viewed on the National Assembly’s website at www.assemblywales.org. In north Wales, the Assembly’s Outreach bus will be present at the Mill Arts and Craft Centre in Holywell, where women’s day celebrations will be taking place, and sixty members from Merched y Wawr will also visit the Colwyn Bay visitor centre to learn about the Assembly.

Dathlu Diwrnod Rhyngwladol y Menywod yn y Senedd
Heddiw (8 Mawrth), bydd Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru yn nodi Diwrnod Rhyngwladol y Menywod, sy’n ddathliad byd-eang o gyraeddiadau merched, gyda chyfres o ddigwyddiadau drwy ystad y Cynulliad. Yn y Senedd, bydd Rosemary Butler AC, y Dirprwy Lywydd, yn siarad mewn digwyddiad ‘caffi’r byd’, a drefnwyd gan y Cyngor Prydeinig a’r darparwr cyrsiau hyfforddiant, Merched yn Gwneud Gwahaniaeth. Yn y caffi, bydd menywod yn eistedd o gwmpas byrddau yn dweud hanesion am nifer o fenywod a fu’n nodedig mewn hanes ledled y byd dros y 100 mlynedd ddiwethaf, gan gynnwys y rhai a fu’n weithgar dros hawliau merched a’r rhai sydd wedi cyflawni gweithredoedd a dewrder a phenderfyniad. Bydd arddangosfeydd gan sefydliadau cydraddoldeb fel MEWN Cymru, Chwarae Teg, Merched y Wawr, Archif Menywod Cymru a Self Help Africa hefyd i’w gweld yn y Senedd i nodi’r diwrnod. Bydd Cymdeithas Celfyddydau’r Menywod yn cynnal digwyddiad yn y Pierhead a fydd yn cynnwys perfformiad gan grwp dawns benywaidd, India Dance Cymru, a chlocsiwr. Bydd y Gymdeithas hefyd yn lansio arddangosfa decstilau a fydd i’w gweld yn Oriel y Dyfodol yn y Pierhead. Bydd yr arddangosfa, ‘Yr Edau sy’n ein Clymu: Hen Grefftau gan Fenywod Modern’, yn arddangos gwaith artistiaid benywaidd o Gymru. Ar y diwrnod hwn hefyd, bydd y Cynulliad yn lansio cystadleuaeth i ddewis arwres Gymreig o’r gorffennol i’w nodi yn ‘ystafell yr arwyr’ yn y Pierhead o restr fer y mae modd ei gweld ar wefan y Cynulliad Cenedlaethol yn www.cynulliadcymru.org. Yn y Gogledd, bydd bws Allgymorth y Cynulliad yn bresennol yng Nghanolfan Gelfyddydau a Chrefftau’r Felin, Treffynnon, lle bydd dathliadau diwrnod y menywod yn digwydd, a bydd 60 o aelodau Merched y Wawr hefyd yn ymweld a chanolfan ymwelwyr y Cynulliad ym Mae Colwyn i ddysgu am y Cynulliad.

Now the cylinder has been lowered over the pistons, and the cam chain is being threading through the main body of the cylinder and over the top.
I highly recommend getting the piston ring compressor tool when lowering the cylinder back on. It took two sets of hands to compress the rings (not easy), while each using our chins to gently hammer the cylinder down over each ring, one at a time... all six rings.

The cable is threaded through pins like this, which is attached to metal beams under ground that anchor the I-90 bridges in place.
