Curtiss R3C-2 Vintage Racing Aircraft - by Takumi - Avião De Corrida

The Curtiss R3C was an US-American racing aircraft built in landplane and seaplane form. It was a single-seated biplane built by the Curtiss Aeroplane and Motor Company.
The R3C-1 was the landplane version and won the Pulitzer Trophy Race in 12 October 1925 with a speed of 248.9 mph (406.5 km/h).
The R3C-2 was a twin-float seaplane built for the Schneider Trophy Race. In 1925, it took place at Chesapeake Bay in Baltimore, Maryland. With 232.57 mph (374.274 km/h), pilot Jimmy Doolittle won the trophy with a Curtiss R3C-2. The other two R3C-2, piloted by George Cuddihy and Ralph Oftsie, did not reach the finish line. The next day, with the same plane on a straight course, Doolittle reached 245.7 mph (395.4 km/h), a new world record. For the next Schneider Trophy, that took place on 13 November 1926, the R3C-2's engine was further improved, and pilot Christian Franck Schilt won the second place with 231.364 mph (372.34 km/h). - Wikipedia

Halloween Special - Phantom Manor - by Ray Keim

I created this model for entertainment purposes only. It represents over six months of work, taking hundreds of hours to design. I am now offering it for free to any mansion fan who would like it, as a token of appreciation for all the phenomenal support I have received since starting this site, and also in the hopes that it will encourage others to share their art and ideas freely online. I hope it is enjoyed, and shared. All I ask is that my name and credit appear on the model and documents. And please do not repackage it, or try to sell it in a modified form. - Ray Keim

Halloween Special - Barbie Scale Guillotine - by Tektonten

Tektonten is a very nice blog about paper models and have some original models made by the author.

Here is my contribution to the collection of free Halloween papercraft on the Internet this year: a guillotine! I had downloaded a 3D model of a bloody guillotine by designer "Smirnoffka" earlier this year thinking I might do a papercraft of it sometime and finally decided it would work best as a Halloween papercraft. I chose to scale the guillotine to the size of a Barbie doll because there was something just so ironic and disturbing about associating smiling Barbie with a gruesome instrument of death. - Tektonten

Da Vinci`s Mechanical Hammer - by Paper Pino - Martelo de Da Vinci

This is one of the simplest machines designed by Leonardo in order to improve the human performance. A lever connected to the hammer is moved by means of an eccentric cam. At each turn of the handle, the hammer gives a stroke. As a matter of fact, the real hammer is supposed to be powered by a water paddle-wheel. An implementation with a paddle-wheel powered by sand is planned for the next future. - Paper Pino

Esta é uma das mais simples máquinas projetadas por Leonardo Da Vinci, a fim de melhorar o desempenho humano. Uma alavanca conectada a um martelo, que é movido por meio de uma câmara excêntrica. Em cada volta do punho, o martelo dá uma batida. Nos esboços de Leonardo, o martelo real é alimentado por uma turbina de água. - Paper Pino



The model is made up with 44 parts, that can be assembled without glue thanks to the Removable Interlocking Pin System (RIPS).
The complete set, inclusive of the assembling instructions, can be contained in an elegant kit box (to build).
