My little fidget survival pack — always with me, always ready to save my focus (and sanity 😅).
All PEI, because that honey-glow and silky-solid feel? Just perfection. ❤️
Can’t get enough of these tiny mechanical wonders… magnets, gears, clicky goodness — pure therapy in pocket size.
Do you use fidget toys too, or am I the only one fighting the Monday blues this way? 😏

@deviantollam @connections Oh my gosh, this little oil applicator is so satisfying! 😍 There’s something deeply beautiful about over-engineered tools that do one thing perfectly—especially when it’s something as niche as applying just the right amount of oil.
That’s the kind of attention to detail that makes my heart sing. 
It’s like the mechanical equivalent of a haiku—simple, precise, and elegant.🔧✨

The Secrets Of Pink Floyd’s Quadraphonic PA
> Pink Floyd pioneered live surround sound as long ago as the early ’70s. Chris Hewitt has tracked down the groundbreaking PA systems they used at Pompeii and on the Dark Side Of The Moon tour, and rebuilt the custom quad console operated by Alan Parsons. In our exclusive video feature, Chris explains how the Floyd created a fully immersive concert experience more than 50 years ago. > > Chapters > 00:00 - Introduction > 01:14 - Allen & Heath quadraphonic desk > 01:39 - Desk designer Andy Bereza > 02:00 - Allen & Heath Minimix > 02:19 - Pink Floyd mixing in quad > 02:43 - Teac A3340 4-track tape machine > 03:22 - Alan Parsons at the mixing desk > 04:11 - Binson Echorec 2 > 04:30 - Live mix engineers > 05:30 - Introduction of wedge monitors > 06:26 - Sennheiser MD 409 > 07:07 - Phase Linear amplifiers > 08:54 - WEM parabolic dish > 11:23 - Rebuilding the quad desk > > Thank you to Chris Hewitt of CH Vintage Audio for inviting us to film his collection. > https://www.chvintageaudio.com [https://www.chvintageaudio.com] > > The following books by Chris Hewitt contain a wealth of information and further details about the Pink Floyd PA system as well as the history of WEM the pioneering British live sound company. > > The Development Of Large Rock Sound Systems: Volume 1 > The Development Of Large Rock Sound Systems: Volume 2 > The Development Of Large Rock Sound Systems: Volume 3
Attached: 1 image The Bendix CADC is an analog computer used by fighter planes in the 1950s. It computed airspeed, Mach number, and other important parameters. I reverse-engineered how it performed these calculations with tiny gears, differentials, and cams. 1/12
