When you hear the words “stop motion”, your mind usually gravitates towards action figures, clay, or LEGO blocks. By placing these objects in different positions in each frame, you can create moving pictures that animate just like a movie. Inspired by the fully painted film Loving Vincent, YouTube channel Clicker wanted to pay homage to painter Vincent van Gogh in the best way possible: stop motion. Only instead of using toys to create their video, they decided to use handmade paintings: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMf8a8d4GQc&ab_channel=Clicker It sounds easy on paper, but painting in stop motion requires a lot of skill. You have to make sure each stroke is exactly where you want…

Finding a reliable hand to hold your projects like pipes, tubes, metals, and woods as you cut, pound, and sharpen is a tough business. A wrong choice is not only expensive. It could also be frustrating and unsafe. One of the reliable hands for holding your round and flat workpieces is a pipe and bench vise. This is a tool that you could mount on your workbench (though not necessarily) and where you could clamp your projects through the jaws. These may have built-in or removable jaws to hold pipes or tubes so you could cut or saw freely while the vise ensures that your project would not budge. These…

Any professional or even recreational woodworking tasks necessitate the use of specialized equipment designed for quality end-product and convenience. A woodworking vise is among the most essential tools in woodworking. A woodworking vise contains two jaws intended for securing the workpiece as well as a screw mechanism for adjusting the grip. Since the jaws can damage the wood material being handled, the jaws are normally made of wood or metal with a wood surface. It is usually attached to a fixed object, such as a workbench while its wooden jaws protect the wooden workpiece against any harm or damage. That being said, when looking for a good woodworking vise, at…

In this interview with Dr. Logan Rodriguez Graves, we learn about how gigundous, expensive mirrors in observatory telescopes are made, medical imaging, and other things you can do with a degree in optical science. https://youtu.be/MT0BLowdjlw Medical Imaging for Diagnosing Colon Cancer As an undergrad, Graves worked in a University of Arizona group that researched new methods for imaging colon cancer. The “traditional” way to image your innards typically includes drinking a nauseating liquid sludge that makes things fluoresce. Don’t ask me why I intimately know what it’s like to drink that garbage. The researchers Graves worked with came up with new ways to poke around in there without that beverage.…

It takes a LOT of metal to smelt down a solid ingot and sometimes, those metals aren’t always readily available. Gold, for instance, is crazy expensive and you would need to melt a lot of jewelry just to create a single gold nugget. Copper, on the other hand, is cheap and readily available; provided you know where to look for it. Luckily, one curious guy knows where to get some. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_cHZeimm1c Due to his desperation to create the biggest copper ingot, YouTuber Ingot Joe considered using copper cables as an alternative… lots of copper cables. Since the copper ingot had to be 99.9% copper, he decided to use a number…
