      I have always been curious about how one manufactures those "a solid object inside a solid frame" trinkets where it appears that the solid object inside should have been impossible to fit inside the frame. Now that I have watched this video ...

      Link to video

      ... I am still not sure how such trinkets are made. :man-shrugging:

          They take a solid block of wood, then remove the wood that isn't the captive ball in sphere.

          Education is extremely important.

              Just something that I never thought about, thus interesting for me to see how it can be done.

                I've wondered about this in the past, but I've never had the thought that it would appear on YouTube. What a maroon - EVERYTHING is on YouTube.

                Does she need a visit from Safelite?

                "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

                The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                  Somewhat related, but the story of a kid that has no arms but was able to get a driver license.

                  Go to about 10:00 minutes in the below video

                    Life size silicon doll buyer’s guide:

                    Link to video

                    Skeletal construction, from TPE (cheaper, less durable, less lifelike) to silicon (more expensive, more durable, more lifelike), details like wigs vs. “implanted” hair, variable firmness for different parts of the doll, etc. Brief discussion on buyers’ psychology. A rather comprehensive guide given the length of the video.

                      One person singing two tones at the same time.

                      Interesting and impressive, but not exactly pleasant, rather weird. She demonstrates usage in a folk tune near the end, but I cannot yet imagine how to use that effectively in compositions. :man-shrugging:

                        "Overtone singing" has a rich history going back hundreds of years.

                                          "A positron can be seen as electron moving backward in time."

                                          What the hell does that even mean?

                                          I long for the days when the atom was a simple miniature solar system.
