Happy Independence Day!
Today is the day all Americans put aside their cultural, political, and religious differences and join together to eat way too much and get bitten by mosquitoes.
I was talking to some people from India this week, and they told me they have an independence celebration next month. Apparently, 'tis the season to remember how we all used to be oppressed by the British. Take that, Britain! (Just kidding, England. We're still friends, right?)
Links
I have quite a few links saved up, so without further ado...
Do you know how an automatic transmission works?
Really nice wooden clockwork creations.
Self-referential signs are the best kind.
Jewelry made from watch parts. Gear-riffic!
If I bought this lathe, I would put it in my living room. Then I would pull up a chair and just sit and stare at it. Look at all the pictures, this is an incredible machine and work of art.
I'm tired of my current submarine. It's leaky, the air runs out all the time, and the crew gets surly if I don't serve snacks. I'm thinking of getting one of these. I hope the dealer has free delivery, though, because my submarine trailer has a flat.
Detroit is For Makers.
