A pyramidal horn antenna on a three leg stand: four flared panels opening forward from a waveguide throat, with the receiver box behind it, standing on its own pad.
Dish Rail Track Section (Radio Telescope Array and Field Station)
A six metre section of the rail a movable dish traverses: a ballast bed, sleepers across it and two rails on chairs, ported end to end so a run is as long as the site needs.
AnimatedRail Bogie for a Movable Dish (Radio Telescope Array and Field Station)
The powered carriage a movable dish rides on: a welded deck with the turret bearing on top, drive boxes on both ends and four flanged wheels, traversing along its rails as one node.
Dish Pedestal Base (Radio Telescope Array and Field Station)
The pedestal a dish stands on, on its own: a stepped concrete foundation, a tapered column with a service door, a climbing ladder and the bolted bearing ring that takes the turret.
Dish Counterweight Block (Radio Telescope Array and Field Station)
A ballast block for the back of a dish yoke: a cast mass in a steel frame with a lifting eye on top, banded red, resting on its own pad.
AnimatedSmall Parabolic Dish Antenna (Radio Telescope Array and Field Station)
A three metre parabolic dish on a short pedestal, the outrigger of a field array or a monitoring antenna beside the cabins, slewing and tilting on its own nodes.
Village smithy, open fronted, with forge, anvil and armoury bench (Blacksmith Forge and Armoury)
A working blacksmith's shop 16 m by 12 m, open fronted on purpose so the whole floor can be seen and walked: timber framed walls on three sides, a shop front of a shutter counter and two open bays with the cart entrance left clear beside them, and no roof over the working...
AnimatedMedium Parabolic Dish Antenna (Radio Telescope Array and Field Station)
A six metre parabolic dish on the same altazimuth pedestal as the large machine, sized for the middle of a field array, with a slewing turret and a tilting reflector.
AnimatedLarge Parabolic Dish Antenna (Radio Telescope Array and Field Station)
A nine metre parabolic dish on an altazimuth pedestal: the turret slews about the vertical, the reflector tilts about the yoke axle, and the quadripod feed and counterweight travel with it.
AnimatedHand cart of ironwork, 2.4 m (Blacksmith Forge and Armoury)

Helm on a shaping form, 1.05 m (Blacksmith Forge and Armoury)

Blade blank rack, 1.4 m (Blacksmith Forge and Armoury)
Oak rack of forged blade blanks waiting on the grinder: knife, seax and sword blanks with their tangs drawn and their edges still thick and unsharpened, plus two scythe blades and a billhook, which is the shape the work leaves a forge in.
Planishing stake in a block, 0.84 m (Blacksmith Forge and Armoury)
Polished steel planishing stake on a T head set in an oak block, with a bench mandrel beside it and a curved plate laid over the head, the tool that takes the hammer marks out of raised armour.
