W/NW Heavy Metal

[venchka]

If you were expecting Led Zeppelin, sorry about your luck.

The first offering is a Carlton 7'-0" arm drill press. That's right. 7'-0" from the vertical post on the left to the chuck for the drill bit. Our other Carlton, the little 6'-0" model, is off camera th the right.

Pacemaker Speed Graphic. 127mm/4.7 Ektar. 1/2 sec. @ f/16. HP5+. D-76 1:1. 10 minutes @ 68F. Jobo 3010 tank. Uniroller base.

I added the upper left corner detail for grins. Not bad for a free 1953 lens, hey?

Thanks for looking.

Definitely not bad, I like this kind of photo. Was it a job or fun?

 

[venchka]

It was for fun and education with my new equipment and where I work. Not a job.

Matt, that last one made me crack up. Nice shot.

Thanks, that's my friend Keith. He took the bear head from someone in the audience. I don't know what's weirder; a guy showing up dress as a bear to a concert or a guy rockin with a bear head.

I have no idea what these are called but they sure looked heavy... Wayne (Venchka) can certainly tell us what they are...

That's our company's bread & butter. They were outside the building where the drill press lives. The drill press bores the holes in the spreader bars. This batch are the very small ones. I'll work on a picture of the big ones.
