What do you find scavenging in an old lab. Building something around these will be quite challenging, big QCW coil or IH. Thunderstorm during my summer holiday

Crucible failure! After failure the molten steel is sucked into the coil where it shorts and explodes. No injuries, just lessons learned about proper crucible usage.

That's a mighty nice looking anvil you have there, where'd you get it? I'm using a cheapo anvil shaped lump for my smith work, I'm jealous to see a real one.

I'm using a cheap* 8mm lens on my NEX VG20 camera, it gives ~170 degree FOV laterally so I can cover the full sphere of view in 10-12 photos depending on how much overlap there is. I stitch them with a program called Hugin. Hugin is a pain but once you get some practice it gives good results.

Some panoramas I did at Great Falls Park. Both were done using multiple single shots from my Pentax WG-II rugged camera (rather than the built in panorama mode), stitched together in Hugin, then the second one was processed throug the Fattal tonemap on Luminance HDR (which, as I found out, does not like panorama sizes very much hehe)
and my latest rifle, a chinese variant SKS, also known as the poor man's hunting rifle. These are so cheap surplus I can finally make a hunting trip without worrying so much about the cost of something like a .30-06 or .308 The bipod, grip, and laser were cheap things off of amazon that I actually don't intend to keep on this gun, just there to make a cool photo. They mainly stay on my .22-lr
