ars ingeniara

Celebrating the engineering prowess of humanity. If it turns dead dinosaurs, uranium, biowaste, water, gas or anything else into kinetic energy.. it belongs here. I'll also post the occasional equipment that relates: compressors, centrifuges, etc., along with other technology that fascinates me.
