However, we were surprised to find sold listings that ended at $100, $120, $270, $400, and even $5,000. It's true that a handful of buyers snagged the film for less than $5, including a bunch of $1 listings. "The Fox and the Hound" appeared, at first, to be one of the pricier Disney animated VHS finds. It's true that the original version of "The Rescuers" on VHS contained an image of a topless woman. However, more than 99% of the listings for the films went for significantly lower prices. Someone also appeared to buy "The Rescuers" for $100. However, we did find an unopened version of "The Rescuers" for $51. Nothing we saw got anywhere close to $2,500. Each of these films usually sold on eBay for less than $15. "The Rescuers" and "The Rescuers Down Under" - $2,500 Totalįalse. However, we found nothing even close to $2,000. the Extra-Terrestrial" went for $8, $9.99, and $12. A few listings for the original VHS version of "E.T. It might have been a scam, and the seller might not have been paid. However, like the strange $1,500 listing for "The Sword in the Stone," the seller had a rating of 0. We did notice one sold listing that went for $300. Most sold listings for "The Jungle Book" ended for less than $10. It was unclear if the listing was a scam, or if a transaction actually ended up occurring. We found one listing that ended at a whopping $1,500. No matter which version of "The Sword in the Stone" was searched for on eBay, they all sold for 99 cents, $1.90, $3, $10, etc. This VHS tape appeared to be rare, and we only found two sold listings that ended at $300 and $500. The list on the Ice Pop and Direct Expose websites claimed that the 2000 edition of "WCW Bash at the Beach" sold for $500. The "Masterpiece" edition also only sold for a few dollars. We found a sold listing for the original VHS edition of "Sleeping Beauty" for 99 cents. "The Godfather Trilogy" might be a somewhat rare find on VHS, but it's not expensive. ![]() There was even a listing with the 6-tape set unopened and brand new for only $23. We found listings for the 6-tape "The Godfather Trilogy" on VHS that went for $1.00, $0.99, and even 25 cents. This one might be the cheapest on the list. We even found a single listing with three VHS films that sold for a total of $14.99: "Beauty and the Beast," "Aladdin," and "The Lion King." 9. The "Black Diamond Collection" edition of "The Lion King" had sold in listings that ended at $3.99 and $7.70, for example. We looked at 733 sold listings for "Thomas & Friends," and most of them sold for less than $10. The highest-priced sold listing was for $80, and it included 23 VHS tapes. We were unable to find any "Thomas & Friends" eBay listings that sold for anywhere close to $200. In early 2021, we found several sold listings for the videotape that ended at $1.50 and $2.įor example, we found sold eBay listings from sellers with good ratings for $177.95, $45.30 (+$28.63 shipping), $150, $149.99, and $41.99 (+$4.39 shipping). The value claimed by Direct Expose and Ice Pop appears below next to each title: 1. We searched eBay for sold listings for all of these supposedly "rare" VHS tapes on the list. We reached out to eBay and they responded to us. It was unclear if these listings were some sort of scam. However, we noticed that the vast majority of those "sold listings" were made by brand-new sellers with an extremely low seller rating. In our search for the titles below, we found a few ridiculously high "sold listings" for a number of titles. Value is determined by sales, not a seller's initial asking price. However, the price a seller lists an item for does not determine its value. ![]() We previously reported that "Black Diamond Collection" Disney films had often been listed on eBay for hundreds or even thousands of dollars. ![]() Several of the VHS tapes to make the list were Disney animated classics. It might be surprising to some, but on eBay, mint condition VHS tapes have been selling from anywhere between a couple of dozens to thousands of dollars! Forget about finding sunken treasure, you might just have a few gold nuggets stored away in your attic. Thought about throwing out your old collection of VHS tapes? Think again. The headline from the story read: "These VHS Tapes Can Land a Nice Sum for Owners." It was originally published by the website Direct Expose in November 2019: In late January 2021, the viral content website Ice Pop advertised online a list of purportedly "rare" VHS tapes. These listings mostly came from brand-new seller accounts with a 0 rating. It's undetermined if a small number of extremely high-priced eBay listings were ever paid by the buyers. ![]()

![]() ![]() You will need to remove the temper from the steel to make it flat and stay that way. You will notice your spring section is curved. One end (the end to be mounted at the base of the horn) needs to be square the other can be ragged for the time being, just be a little generous with your measurements. You may as well torch it, since you are doing it anyway. Depending on how long your track section is, you will need perhaps a foot to eighteen inches of spring. This is where the section of truck leaf spring comes in. The next step is to make a flat surface on the top of the anvil. Remember, dents and rust pitting on the surface of the spring will be transferred to the work, so try to find a smooth piece. You will also need about the same length of a truck leaf spring, so, while you are poking around, looking for a section of track, ask about a piece of spring, too. You can get by with eighteen inches, so that is in your favor. I can even show you places where surveying markers were made out of sections of track driven into the ground! You don't need a lot of track - two feet will be oodles. When they pulled the track up in my area, scraps were available everywhere. ![]() You might find pieces in scrapyards, auto repair shops, antiques shops, or various other places. In the country, especially in areas where there used to be railroad tracks, it is a little more doable. While there may be plenty of track there, I'm almost positive they don't want you pulling it up. ![]() That may be easier said than done, especially in more urban areas. If anyone has any recommendations on clean up and repair of this old anvil then please leave a comment below.First, you find a piece of railroad track. I quizzed the seller about it’s history but they did not know, having seen it I’m pretty sure it’s constructed from a piece of railway track, the proportions and the way it’s been cut strongly indicate that’s the case.įor a stand, I’ve a work collegue looking me out a suitable round log although it might have been nice to make something out of an old railway sleeper! I also plan to put a coat of paint on the sides and base after those are cleaned up. After cleaning the top with a wirebrush there are some small dints in it, about the size of staples, so I’ll likely give the top a skim with the grinder and some flapdisks. I also gave it a bash with a hammer and it’s got a nice ring to it. I tested it with a file and it’s not been hardened so I might look into doing that once it’s back in shape. When it finally arrived, I eagerly unpacked it. Faversham, Aylsham, Hatfield, Cambridge, Hatfield, Hayes, Hatfield, Enfield, Workshopshed. This allowed me to follow it’s rather convoluted journey. When it was shipped the seller gave me a tracking number. ![]() I had the winning bid and paid a fair price for the anvil, a little bit more than a new one of the same weight though. However, I also did not want a 150kg anvil that I’d not be able to move around the workshop easily and that would cost a fortune. I spotted a little anvil on ebay and though it would make a good addition to the Workshopshed.īefore purchasing this, I only had a tiny anvil on the back of my vice and previously when I’ve tried to do simple forging operations (such as making my lift out tongs and pouring shank) it was not big enough to be useful. ![]() ![]() This is a renowned fact that methane builds up in our guts over time. Outback Belly Burner effectively prevents your stomach from getting stuck in a “methane gridlock,” which is supposed to be a natural thing that doesn’t always go well for you. Also, it has been checked by other people, so now we’re set! What does Outback Belly Burner do? That’s good news for us! This indicates that each of the components, as well as how they were made, are of the best quality and cleanliness. ![]() This supplement is manufactured at a manufacturing plant that has also been certified with GMP certification. Richard Farris made sure that the infrastructure was approved by the FDA at the start to make sure it was good. This supplement does not have any undesirable artificial ingredients in it, and it is not addictive. Evey bottle of OBB has 60 capsules in it, which is enough for 1 month of use. It is a perfect alternative way to deal with your body fat and weight going up quickly or not going down at all. Outback Belly Burner seems to be a supplement that can only be bought from the company’s website. When the methane in the body is set to release, users can always expect better digestion, more energy, and much more moment to share with family and friends, no matter how long you’ve had it. By carrying out all the methane gridlock that’s occurring in your intestines right now, it wants to make your metabolism work more quickly. An “advanced metabolism method with extra support” is what this weight loss supplement claims to be. The supplement is usually abbreviated as OBB.Īlthough, the product is from Australia, the OBB is manufactured in the USA. The product is called this because it uses blend that most Australians are using in the outback. Richard Farris came up with Outback Belly Burner, which is an organic way to lose weight. It has some organic ingredients like Banaba leaves, Silybum Marianum, Berberis, Cayenne fruit extract, Panax Ginseng, Red Grape skin extract, Cayenne fruit extract, and Green Tea extract. Outback Belly Burner Review – What It Is? review of outback belly burner Visit Outback Belly Burner Official Website> ![]() ![]() ![]() In their paper, "Layered Fields for Natural Tessellations on Surfaces," the authors successfully demonstrate their new method on several large-scale test cases beyond the capabilities of state-of-the-art. The annual conference features the most respected technical and creative members in the field of computer graphics and interactive techniques, and showcases leading edge research in science, art, gaming and animation, among other sectors. Zayer, Steinberger and their collaborators, which include Hans-Peter Seidel at Max Planck Institute for Informatics, and Daniel Mlakar at Graz University of Technology, will present their novel method at SIGGRAPH Asia 2018 in Tokyo 4 December to 7 December. "Observing the progress made in parallelizing existing serial Voronoi diagram codes over the last two decades, the performance gains achieved by our proposed method are very considerable," adds Markus Steinberger, coauthor of the work and an assistant professor at Graz University of Technology in Austria. "In this way, we provide small, concise, humanly readable and most importantly, platform-independent parallel code," notes Zayer. multiplication and addition, readily available, as they are the cornerstone of modern numerical computing. Their method relies mainly on basic sparse linear algebra kernels, i.e. Instead, they have developed a method that takes into account region boundaries in the pattern as narrow bands, which are not necessarily straight, and model the partition as a set of smooth functions layered over the surface. In this new work, researchers simplify the creation of natural tessellations on surface meshes by dropping the assumption that regions need to be separated by lines. Efforts at extending the same idea to surfaces are hampered by the extensive costs of accurate distance measurements, bookkeeping and intersection computations. In mathematics, A Voronoi diagram partitions planes in a pattern based on the distances between points. Typically, researchers have turned to the Voronoi model to mimic such repeat surface patterns. "To capture this behavior, we need to adopt an intrinsic view of the problem and depart from the widely adopted extrinsic perspective which requires full knowledge of all individual cell interactions and locations." ![]() Cells represent the shape or tiles that comprise intricate tessellation patterns. Hence, these designs are promising topologies for future applications.ģD Voronoi tessellation additive manufacturing bio-inspired mechanical properties."When we look at how natural tessellation occurs in nature, the individual cells grow simultaneously, and each individual cell does not necessarily know who are its neighboring cells nor their location or coordinates," explains lead author of the work, Rhaleb Zayer, researcher at Max Planck Institute for Informatics in Saarbrücken, Germany. For the Homogeneous and gradient II cylinders, elongated Voronoi structures show superior mechanical properties and energy absorption compared to normal Voronoi designs. The gradient I cylinder show the highest Young's modulus. Finally, a compression test was carried out to study and compare the mechanical properties of the designed samples. Then, stereolithography (SLA) additive manufacturing was utilized to fabricate biopolymeric materials. Thus, the Rhinoceros 7/Grasshopper software was used to design three geometric models for both normal and elongated Voronoi structures: homogeneous, gradient I, and gradient II. The proposed designs are inspired by nature, which has undoubtedly proven to be the best designer. ![]() Therefore, in the current work, new designs are proposed for lightweight 3D scaffolds based on Voronoi tessellation with high porosity. Irregular 3D biological scaffolds have been widely observed in nature. ![]() ![]() ![]() The three angles of the Scalene triangle are unequal in nature and measure.SWBAT classify triangles and apply the HOMEWORK(?) 4.2Ģ Warm-Up Name 2 pair of alternate interior angles Two angles in Isosceles Triangle are equal.

Maybe a protruding switch or a ridge.įortunately, there is a shoulder strap in the box. But if you’re in the dark, a physical indicator/ led indicator is kind of important. I would like to see them address this (minor) issue. It’s a flat iron button, which by itself is a bit hard to find in the dark. The switch remained the same from the MS12.

This has led to somewhat of a saturation in the market, where it can often be difficult to know which game among hundreds is the one for you. Hell, one of 2021’s best games was a roguelike from a PlayStation first-party studio. They have become so trendy, in fact, that aspects of their makeup are now often visible in behemoth AAA efforts, from mechanics like permadeath, to procedurally generated dungeons, to build variety in their design ethos. Still, it’s only in the last decade or so that roguelikes entered the mainstream. Roguelikes are difficult to stop playing because, more often than not, you’re improving in some way.Īlthough roguelikes’ surge in popularity is still a recent phenomenon, their history dates back more than 40 years - since 1980, to be exact, which is when Rogue put the “rogue” in roguelike.
