I Made This

[QUALTHWAR]

In the spirit of MacGyver, post a picture of something you’ve made, even if it’s not that great. No poo, please.

Here’s mine. It was supposed to be an X-ray machine, but it doesn’t work for some reason. At least I tried.

what your xray machine lacks is a flux compensator

 

[QUALTHWAR]

I know. This project had “materials” issues from the get-go.

I've found something you might need...

I had help, it's my design all the same

thanks, but i don't think it's the right color.

Is that a jar opener?

It's a barbeque

isn't that what makes time travel possible?

Oh right. The piezoelectric grill igniter is hidden, so it was difficult to tell.

You're thinking of Vodka.

 

[QUALTHWAR]

I modified it. It still won’t xray anything, but at least now it will pick up some local AM signals.

 

[Balton]

you need tinfoil government-spy-beam[TM] reflectors

Heh, piezo-electric stuff rules.

I made these. A chainmail coif and bikini top. Working on a shirt and the bottom part of the bikini now

 

[Twrecks]

Problems with your nipples ruining sweaters there Btldood?

Ah, yes. ChainMaille swimsuits. The great leveler.

Nope. I just like measuring the women for the fittings

Next up after the next 2 projects are completed is a chainmail Corset, which also requires extensive measuring.

 

[Nachimir]

May I suggest chainmail catsuits? Or do they throw the manufacturing time to measuring/tailoring time ratio into unnaceptable realms?

Depends on if someone wants to pay the cash for it. Something like that, I'd need 50% up front. And it wouldn't be cheap. Currently, every ring is cut by hand. I make the ring coils, cut the rings and then weave them together.
A typical (sleeveless) shirt is some 12 to 15,000 rings on a 4-in-1 weave.
That bikini top is roughly 4,000 rings with a 6-in-1 weave
That coif is a combination of 4-in-1 weave for the head piece and an 8-in-1 weave for the mantle. There are around 9,000 rings in it.
