Animal pictures

Animal pictures can be slightly amusing. Take some of these for example.

one bird

two birds

three birds

Hey boss...

they're funny looking penguins.

Hey, you at the back there, wake up!

Attention!

Rube Goldberg

The cartoonist, Rube Goldberg, specialised in producing improbable chain reactions, generally making use of animals. Since then, thousands of people have all had a go at making them, so I had a go at it. here's fore of them and each took so many takes that I lost count.[ though to tell the truth, I wasn't counting anyway.]

K'nex hall of fame

Now it may be a bit bulky, but it works [which is always good.]
















Next up is the tallest K'nex skyscraper that I've ever produced.       

Sorry that it's on it's side.

Next up is a K'nex zip wire for Action men

We're all going on a, summer holiday...

To Wales for the day. It was quite a pleasant day, first of all, was a nice trip to Rhuddlan castle, followed by a paddle at Llandudno beach.

Pigeon holes.

Spot the crab!

Now this may sound a bit odd...

but have you ever noticed that old windows do look really quite pretty.

                                    see what I mean?

Incoming!

Which do you think is the wackiest plane that you've ever seen? Well, here, I've got a short line up of fairly weird aeronautical machines.

If you where to show this plane to an aircraft expert they
would quite happily say that it is Supermarine spitfire
which  it is. the only thing is that it is actually a 1 to 1 scale
Air fix [remove the space] model.

As made a French inventor, the flying flea was actually
insanely dangerous because of it being to top heavy.

Now, despite appearances, this is not a small helicopter but large
 kite that was used as a reconnaissance craft and pulled along
buy a submarine.

This is a bit of an odd position to put the engines on an aircraft,
but it is actually a "flying boat" and you don't want to have soggy engines. 

 

Now, I know what you're thinking, 'Hold on a moment, this looks
a little bit like a tank.' and you would be right for thinking that
because it dose look like a tank. But looks can be deceiving, look
closely at those angular corners, those aerodynamic features, and of
cause it can't fly.

Now I'm not the sort of person who goes around showing off, but it did take me rather a while to work out all of the mechanism related bits and bobs. And, yes, it is made of K'nex but I, personally, have never found any thing wrong with the colour yellow.
