    Folding stock carbine

    My friend has a great collection of firearms, including this piece. It's from 1942/3, paratroopers rifle. Quite a feeling holding it, I gotta say.

    3D Food Printer For the Home

    well, food is very malleable. working with hardening resins or even metals, I can't imagine how much that would cost. but designers are currently using this exact system for modeling in the car industry among others. so many industrial machines have been reduced in size and purposed for...

    3D Food Printer For the Home

    This article is a bit old being from January this year but there is a start up company in NYC working on this. It's coming folks, it's on the way! Can you imagine: with the right CAD like software, printer and material, you can take a photograph from a source and literally print a scale...

    I can't get that ****ed smell out. 10 years and it won't go away.

    Still some sympathizers...

    I've actually found their reporting to be among the most accurate out there. They delve into, explain the background of the parties and do an amazing job researching their stories whcih can be looked and actually verified. I do recommend that people watch that source. They report on things...

    Chuck, My step father worked a lot on Nostrand Avenue, they did a patrol in the early mornings to find bodies stuffed in garbage cans. Stuff like that. He was in riot gear during some of the unrest in the 1960's yet, he only drew his revolver on a suspect once in his entire career. Kind of a...

    Had no idea Chuck was in a station. Was he at Ft Apache? Brooklyn? My step dad was a cop in Bed Stuy from the 1950's through the mid/late 70's. And I grew up in the east village/alphabet city. I was in one of the neighborhoods you wouldn't have entered...

    Hey Baron, The German people might not be happy about it but there are larger games being played. Look up the Democracy Now coverage of this. The story appears deeper and murkier than what we think it is.

    The Sopranos, Best Ever?

    Lousy unfinished ending??? That ending was one of the best I have ever seen and I'll tell you why: As Uncle Junior deteriorated, got old and no longer had to look over his shoulder all the time he couldn't even wipe his butt any more. He was useless. The final season was where you got a...

    Still some sympathizers...

    hey trooper, at first i was skeptical of what you were getting at but now that i've brushed up a bit on how the eu/euro works and nation states autonomy to manage currency, debt and their own financial affairs, i am seeing things differently now. i would be very nervous what germany and france...

    Hi Evilchuck - nowadays? Man, did you ever visit NYC in the early 1980's??? Andy of King & Country came to visit back then - to the Bronx, was attacked and stabbed several times! People act like so much of what's happening right now is unique to todays world. Well folks, it's been worse...

    Canada has a fraction the population and a similar land spread, their health care and education are covered through their taxes. Those are large factors in determining what types of crimes will take place. I think that has something to do with it as do many of the researchers I read in school.

    Castles

    Value wise is hard to determine without seeing completed listing results. Also, I have no idea the condition of yours. They are vacuform plastic and often have tears and punctures. For the 40mm figures (which I think yours are for) in decent condition, I would think fair value would be $50 to...

    Clean up poverty? Better diagnose mental instability? Sure. Ok. Nice things to successfully address and also issues every culture has had to deal with and none found a "cure". We can't prevent these things from happening without living in an all out police state. Ends cannot justify the...

    Anytime a story like this breaks a bunch of people over react and assume their gun rights will be infringed upon. They also get to talking about how they would fix the "problem". Some folks want the sky to fall so they can shoot at it.

    Gun laws won't stop people from getting guns. there's always going to a black market for these things and people always willing to buy - like anything else. I used to go to the Caribbean day parade when I was living in that area every year. Great food, great people, wow - beautiful women, I...

    Marilyn Monroe Sculpture Inappropriate?

    What was it David Gilmore said about Roger Waters? "You've got to let a man have his vision"? Something like that. I attend first Fridays and gallery openings from time to time and most of the time, what I find interesting is the work in back areas of said galleries getting little attention.

    Marilyn Monroe Sculpture Inappropriate?

    Hey, I come from a long line of artists. Some are hanging in various museums around the world. I know 'art', I get it. But some things I just don't understand. Like this. Is this 'original' or unique? It's novelty, I wouldn't call that 'art'.
