So i have to confess it's finals week. And while getting the remainder of my work done, I have to have something going on in the background to at least keep my mind working. Working on only one task can sometimes get monotonous, and some background noise really helps. So I decided to binge watch (really just listen) to some Man at Arms/ Man at Arms: Reforged videos on YouTube. (You can watch and get sucked in like I did here) And there is a small part of my that would love to learn blacksmithing, but I don't know how practical that would really be in this day and age. Amazing and cool? Absolutely. But financially responsible? Maybe not so much. These guys have enough of a stranglehold on the industry as it is.
But nonetheless I still think it would be cool to do. Then I found this video. And I did some research. And this is totally going to be one of the summer projects I have set up for myself. I think that the applications of this idea, especially in the creative field, are near limitless. I can prototype out little things for myself and really just make cool stuff. I absolutely have enough soda cans lying around my garage and this is putting them to good use. They're getting recycled, just in a bit of a different way. And, let's be honest, an absolutely cooler way.
Styrofoam and aluminum and really, really, probably dangerous high temperatures for the win. Now all I need to do is find an empty fire extinguisher somewhere...or empty one out myself on someone for fun maybe...
