    Make Triodes From Scratch!

    OK, this is in the realm of the Jet Powered Beer Cooler as far as practicality is concerned. But it is so cool. The site is in French, but the film is without dialog. I love how it begins with a Swiss Army knife. The home made spot welder...

    Scroll down to "La vidéo."

    Moderator, feel free to put this wherever it belongs if this is not it.

    Sorry, dropped my antecedent - here is the Beer Cooler http://www.asciimation.co.nz/beer/
    Why am I getting the feeling that Subwoof could easily do both of these projects if he wanted to?

    That's a lot like building a model of the Washington Mall out of matchsticks, but very cool.

    Wow, Now if I could only make a surface mount resistor.
    I remember as a kid taking tubes to the local convenience store to test on tube tester. Still have that 1951 Motorola TV.

I'm guessing that if we had a video of JBL making his first drivers, it'd look quite a bit like this. Wow.
