STs in front of BIG things.....

[StinkyPete]

The Big Chopper - Nyngan NSW

I expect the pedants to claim that it's not big, but it is big.

The Big Cod - Tocumwall, NSW

Made in 1967, this was Australia's second Big Thing, and I've already posted the one at Swan Hill that we also visited and photographed.

The Big Magpies - Lockhart NSW

[Biggles]

I love magpies.  They're very intelligent and will respond to a suitable whistle.  They never quite tame, but they will become trusting.

The Big Rabbit Trap - Albert NSW.   We were too early and the pub was closed.       This has got to be one of the best Big Things that I've seen.

The Big DC3  at West Wyalong NSW

I know....  bring it on. 

What can I say- you've beaten me to it.  Now we'll have hundreds of bridges, trucks, office buildings...   

[StinkyPete]

The Big Road Runner - South of Nyngan on the Tottenham Road.   It was a toss up between "Unusual Letterboxes" or "Big Things" but big things won, in keeping with the theme of our ride.

The Big Bogan - Nyngan NSW
There's a second picture of another big bogan.

A Hardley with studs and padded sissy bar.  Yep- Bogan!   

[StinkyPete]

The Big Saw Blade - Deniliquin NSW   This was a bit disappointing.

The Big Sherrin - Ungarie NSW 

[Biggles]

The Big Chopper - Nyngan NSW

Well, it is bigger than most.  There are bigger.  There was a Russian one in PNG that could lift 20 tonnes.

The Big Solar Plant - Broken Hill NSW

Biggles, this is BIG.   See  https://www.agl.com.au/about-agl/how-we-source-energy/broken-hill-solar-plant

The Big Spider - Urana NSW

[StinkyPete]

The Big Strawberry - Koonoomoo VIc

[StinkyPete]

The Big Town Sign - Cobar NSW.  Everyone has this one, and I'll claim it, as it's not a small sign by and means and fits in with the theme of our quest.

[StinkyPete]

Thus ends the installment of Big Things from our recent five day "Big Things" quest.    Fish snagged a few others that I've previously posted.

You two certainly had a good time!  What a great idea- go in search of the interesting and unusual.  All made much easier by having someone wanting to do exactly the same thing.  And I did see a couple of pix of The Big "Fish".

I'll delete the post if the consensus is that it's not a Big Thing.

Well looks a lot bigger than the bike to me so I think it fits

The Big Chopper

I used to work on that chopper, its certainly big enough. I have flown it as well. I also worked on the DC3 (not that one) at Pearce, and its bigger than a Cessna 172.

I never considered this a big thing, but I guess I will now.

I got this one because Cerebral Knievel set me a challenge.

The topic is "STs in front of big things"

The DC3 is a big thing compared to a bike but it's not a "Big" DC3 since it is the original size so for me it's still ok.

It is because saw blades usually don't come in that size; The largest working one I have seen would have been about 1500 mm (5 feet) in diameter in what once BHP Whyalla.

Basically it wasn't on the wikipedia list when I looked at it.

I seem to recall as a kid, seeing a working, rather large, circular saw blade at an old timber mill, which was used to turn Cedar trees into planks. The one I saw was also steam powered.

Similar to this, but from memory bigger.
