Looking through some old photos and found these from when we lived in Seabrook, TX. Endeavour's last flight before retirement. September 19, 2012. My wife worked on the Shuttle program until it ended and we left Texas the following year for North Carolina. Had some great times at NASA.
Some of my photos were used in local papers. I was reet proud!

Continued thread
Each shuttle measures ~10" wide at the widest part, and 1.75" deep. The middle is slightly recessed to accommodate more thread, and the edge of the widest portion is tapered to allow it to wedge tightly against the weft. Sanded and sealed. Prices listed in the image.

Ars has a wild story, which I had never heard, of NASA in the Space Shuttle days taking precautions against possible mental breakdown of space travelers. In particular, the commander could install a padlock on the shuttle's hatch. @ZachWeinersmith. did this come up in your research?
