The part on the right side of the of the page doesn't look right....I've changed my glasses and cleaned the lens.
The Parts books for the Essex Tri Directional are almost non existent so i can't look it up.
One good thing spring is around the corner.


 
Talk about an optical illusion. Wow

You follow the center bolt back and it just disappears.

None of it looks right. Or is that none of it looks correct? I forwarded it to my engineer son in NC. If he's not blown away with the storm, he can sort it out.
 
I just sent this to our engineering department.
They are now in an emergency staff meeting to figure this out.
I'll keep you posted.

The power of CAD. In the old days I'd mess with my favorite model makers head Monday morning giving him drawings like that. Cost me a lot of donuts to get back on his good side.
 
Just wait 'til you need to reinstall the aft Hawking phase prism chamber, or, more precisely the isopalavial interface which controls the main firomactal drive unit

OK, the engineering emergency staff meeting is concluded.
They issued a 67 page summary of findings, I'll condense it here:

1 - Parts can not be manufactured in the US, but may be manufactured in the land of "allmost right"
2 - Special tool (part number to be specified later) will be required to install hex nuts.
3 - Main body to be painted JD Green to enhance sales and ROI.
4 - Special anti-seize compound will be necessary for nut installation.
5 - Center bolt must be dipped in Blue Paint to enhance installation.

Further recommendations ask a special committee to be formed to write a $30M Dept of Labor proposal to study the effect and to bring the necessary manufacturing capabilities to the US to allow manufacture of similar parts in the future.

Sadly, if submitted, the grant request would undoubtedly be granted......this being an election year and all.....

Enjoy your day....

Nice. Escher was the grandfather of a lot of these illusions. Search for him and you'll see lots of great, detailed illusions.

Well all those guys that gave this drawing a fancy name ruined my day, I thought it was a shelf mounting bracket for left hand thread sky hook
storage!. Very cool illusion I have never seen or heard of it before. It's amazing the stuff that shows up here sometimes . Thanks for posting.

Hi Doc
That would explain why I haven't seen it before then. I have only been around since a little shy of the mid 70's L.O.L. I'm guessing in the 60's it was a popular thing to see in trade/engineering magazines, and it's taken until now for me to discover that these drawings exist through the internet.
Regards Robert
 
I found that assembly at Running's. They're in the aisle opposite the in line fence post holes on the shelf above the buckets of gravity.
 
After much consideration, study and the consumption of several Coors lights, this is starting to make perfect sense to me.
 
Your working drawing would surface up from time to time, when I was attending Collage "Power Engineering".....:)

We recall that in the end (no pun intended), the ETD was lost forever when it disappeared up its own tailpipe. Kind of like this.

Robert, don't feel too bad, I graduated high school in 1957 and I had never heard of the ETD until I found this site. But then, I didn't read engineering magazines when I was in school either, I was busy reading Hot Rod.
