the power cord that feeds it..



I found a power adapter for Sony SLT a35. Trying it out.

this shot was not easy..dark room, wiggling cord, no flash. Slowly having my way with it, learning abilities...

North Korea is talking peace but is still ready to kick our butts, and has some seriously bad-ass 1956 Fords to back it up...

And apparently, a WWII Nazi surplus V-1 buzz bomb too.

bangor maine has not much famous. A lot may know of the pine tree inn however.





my last shot of hard alcohol was there for the closing, late 1996. In the years prior I stayed there as a young airman. 6 bucks a night. Just show military ID.
I would be leary of long term chem chains.. but he is offering it up to doctors etc for short stays.

good luck to opening, a very active history.

How about this for a Connecting Rod?

[Deaf Bob]

Holy moly, THAT IS A CONNECTING ROD!
Your V-12??

[V12guy]

It's out of a pump that actually broke the crankshaft!
weighs about 80 pounds, was too cool to just throw into the scrap

No doubt! Wall art!

[ratpatrol66]

That must be one hell of a pump.

[V12guy]

It's from a 600 horsepower pump,a 3 cylinder positive displacement 4500 psi unit, used to knock the scale off of the bars before they enter the mill. We have 12 of these, but 2 are for stand by.
Glad you like it!

I took the one from London to Paris, it cooks! I might use this one to go from Florence to Rome this summer.

1961 Pontiac Ventura in Seacrest Green. One of the most beautiful cars i've ever seen.

A road runner apparently made a wrong turn in Albuquerque... It was in my driveway then I watched it run down the street.

Sorry to dissapoint you but my rod is bigger...





That's a cheap carjack on top of it.
I estimate the rod weighs close to 200-250 lbs, which at the time was too much for me to drag up the stairway to my living room, so it has been laying in the hallway for a good number of years now.
Want to drop it in my car and move it to my garage one day. But I wouldn't know where to store it there because there's not much available space to put it. One of life's little dilemmas I guess... ;)
