Lol nice. I wonder if he used tungsten carbide blanks. Probably densest cheap metal if lead isn’t an option. Would need diamond cutting discs/bits to fit it tho.
Edit: probably for the best that I didn’t become a parent lol
I watched a video where some crafters used tungsten powder mixed in an epoxy for a really great effect. Get that heavy and metallic look of tungsten but easy to cast like epoxy.
happy cake day!
Even and katelyn?
It was a guy and gal talking to Adam Savage.
Yea thats them, they have a channel where they do lots of cool stuff with resin, can only recommend!
It was Evan and Katelyn being featured on Adam's channel lol
But lead would be an option. Just don't lick it and it's fine.
Yeah you’re right. I’m too used to worst-possible-case being min req but you’re right.
What? Why? You sound like you'd solve all yo7r hypothetical kid's problems!
Haha exactly! That would’ve been my mistake. Helping them trounce other kids would’ve felt natural, much easier than helping them become a better person.
I don't see the problem here. Your kid would be winning!
Well yeah, and winning’s great if it’s theirs. Sorry I’m bad at explaining. It was my first attempt.
I meant that, given my disposition (competitive bitch, often lucky, won more than my share) I would’ve fought the kid’s battles too often, compounded my winnings into theirs, and failed to let them learn to fight for themselves, for others. I’d have created the privileged rivals of my youth instead of helping other’s children succeed. I think.
E: they’d be no more than primary school age today, so maybe I’d have grown up enough in time to fix my mistakes. Just seems like a gamble when a child deserves better.
'Better' as if any kid born today is going go get old!
