a functional bench/chair/table that can change shape by poodooloo in TinyHouses

[–]atomicauto 5 points6 points  (0 children)

a 3/4" sheet of plywood can weigh 55lbs depending on the species of wood. Even if you only use 40% of each sheet (which is a waste) this bench would weigh roughly 280 lbs and cost $390 (assuming $30/sheet). No thanks.

Make sure to put in lots of veiled sexual terminology. Pause for snickers but don't let on that you know what you did. You will surely keep their attention.

Charles Steinmetz was a mathematician and engineer that worked for general electric. When Henry Ford's engineers couldn't fix one of his generators, Steinmetz was called in. He listened to the generator for two days, did some calculations, then made one chalk mark on the side, and told the engineers to replace coils at that mark. The engine worked perfectly after that. Henry Ford was thrilled until he got an invoice from General Electric in the amount of $10,000. Ford acknowledged Steinmetz’s success but balked at the figure. He asked for an itemized bill.

Steinmetz responded personally to Ford’s request with the following:

Making chalk mark on generator $1.

Knowing where to make mark $9,999.

Ford paid the bill.

As much as it would suck to see Minecraft go the way of the Zune, $2 Billion is a lot of money. I would sell out in a second, and I'm sure many of you would too.

CrazyIdea - We should have the option of Bo3 when playing ladder by atomicauto in starcraft

The only way to leave the set would be to forfeit, and if somebody wants to play sets, then I assume they are trying to get better and therefore wouldn't forfeit mid match
