These really don't belong in the still life section and I could picture the groans, so I decided to start a new thread for old timey junk and workshops that are lost in a time warp. Let's see what you've got. Here are 2 to get us going.

Indeed, Jim, thanks for getting the thread going!

Here's a picture of the very latest in mid-19th century technology for operating a water gate.

One of my first lith prints. Done on an 8x10 Tachihara, with a Rodenstock 210mm, if I remember rightly.

Shot at the Marshall Gold Discovery State Park in Coloma, CA. The smith's there are volunteers, and great guys (and gals!) to talk to.

I know, technically medium format... I'll take them down if it's not allowed(!)
