Going through miles of it these days.

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 for ease of access.

 

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.

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

I never get tied of looking at these majestic thread fin schools

Day 74: 4 spools of thread

Leftover bits of thread from a few things I've been working on today.

metallic thread arrived today, can't wait to get started!

New England Central power pulls out for headroom while switching the Providence & Worcester interchange at Willimantic, Connecticut. The sculptural spools of thread on the bridge here reflect Willimantic's history as a textile manufacturing center, specializing in thread. Across the river, one of the historic mills has been turned into apartments and artists' studios.

Day 15 cream

Raided the sewing box today, lots of different colours but all on cream reels. The cream thread will probably feature again one day.

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…

UP Switcher uses side track out of Argo Yard to build a train, crossing Lucile Street in Seattle's Georgetown neighborhood. The track threads its way between a city park and retail buildings, then comes to a dead end about 1/4 mile south.

Threading hair is an ancient method commonly practiced in Eastern countries, like Egypt and India. A cotton thread is pulled along unwanted hair in a twisting motion to trap hair in a mini lasso, plucking the hair at the follicle.
