saw ginning machine The sawtooth hooks the fiber rotates, passes through the adjacent crimping rib clearance, the cotton fiber is brushed, enters the cotton collection box; the cotton is blocked by the rib, passes through the cotton comb to discharge the machine. This is the cotton ginning process. For more information, please click on https://www.testextextile.com/product/lab-saw-cotton-gin-tb510b/
Silverton Revisited Dear Mohamad
Thank you for your comment. We also bought a couple of things from there. We were back there in March this year when our daughter came to visit and I'm sorry to tell you that the lovely cafe on top of the hill was closed and up for sale. We were very disappointed. I hope it is back in business when you next go.
Tumby Bay SA , C.L. Alexander National Trust Museum We have a Cashier Flying Fox which was used in the local Hoppings Store on Lipson Road. It still works. Quite an attraction in the Museum.
Magnetic Termite in aboriginal language Hi Kathy,
I had a look to your very interesting blog. I found those magnetic termites quite fascinating, so small but being able to build a perfect building from a bio-climatic point of view.
I was wondering if by any chance you know the name of those termites in aboriginal language - I know there are many different ones grouped in families, but not that many where those termites lives and build those cathedrals.
Many thanks in advance from Belgium.
Regards,
Olivier
Magnetic Termites Hi Olivier,
Glad you enjoyed the blog. The Magnetic Termites, Amitermes Meridionalis in Latin, are fascinating. The tall Cathedral mounds are built by the Spinifex Termites, (Nasutitermes triodiae). Unfortunately, I don't know the Aboriginal names for them. The Queensland Museum has a very interesting fact sheet on Magnetic Termites if you'd like more information but it doesn't include the indigenous name either. There was also an experiment done to find out how the termites can align the mounds so accurately. The study put magnets near mounds that were just getting started. They were not able to build the mounds normally. It appears they really do use the Earth's magnetic field to make their alignment.
Dad in Shorts Yes. Don't faint - he's been wearing them for weeks, ever since it got really hot in Darwin. He went back into jeans for a few days once we got to Port Augusta but now we're in Mildura he's back in them again. He actually has a bit of a tan on them! First time since I've known him.
Not going West after all Thanks Branka. We are having a lovely time, although we've had a breakdown at the moment and are waiting for some parts to come to repair the van suspension. It has got too hot suddenly so we are heading for Alice Springs as soon as we're back on the road. We'll do the West next year.
Lucky you :) Hi Kathy,
I am enjoying your posts. It seems you are having great time. We talk about you very often and tomorrow i am going to tell them your whereabouts. Regards from all staff from Community West
Short Changed That's not a big slice of ham! Rather, it's only a half sandwich! !!!! Nice touch with the melon, but dont sneeze before you've eaten the leaf of salad (or is it two) lest you blow it away.
I am a mature (aged anyway!) woman, married with 2 children, a daughter, now 29, who is living in England, and a son who is 25. I was an English language and literacy teacher in a community centre in Melbourne, where I live but am now sort of retired (temporarily at present). I originally came from England, where I met my Aussie husband and then moved to Australia to marry and raise my family.
I love travel and enjoy hearing about new places.... full info
