The Opulent Outhouse

Can we say “overkill” boys and girls? This is the most over the top waste (HA-HA) of taxpayers moneys I have seen since the upteen thousand dollar toilet seats (other than the comander and chief idiot’s war). And it can’t be used in cold weather cause its a composting toilet and they don’t work when it gets cold, so the forestry service (or whatever) locks the doors in the winter. Idiots, the whole bloody lot of them…

[Sharp edged tools]—Sanjo Industrial Cooperative “Echigo Manufacturing Network”

Check out the video link under the pix on the right of the page. Love the guy using his feet to turn the chisel while he is filing it. I’d say he has done that a time or two before. Also like the dude putting the hard facing on the chisels with his bare hands. Not to mention the forging machine toward the end that rocks on each blow. Wonderful stuff! Just wish I could understand what they were saying… 😉
