Engine blocks to wine racks

-

The video above depicts a straightforward and cost-effective transformation and with the crankshaft and bearings removed, two additional bottles are housed. The motor, from a scraped FTO, was purchased at RM150.00 (US50.00 approximate) from a yard in Kuala Lumpur.

The V6 below is a work in progress and is destined to swivel on the kitchen counter. The block is from a 2-liter Cifero and the ‘hidden’ swivel plate, cannibalized from a Japanese-made chair, has the appropriate 100kg load.

In Malaysia, the price of scrap aluminum is RM6.00 a kilo.

Postscript: The crank from the FTO is beginning to look like a table lamp

Exchange Stabilization Fund (Parts 1 to 4) •... by 1tommypeters1 Exchange Stabilization Fund (Part 5) • Eric... by 1tommypeters1 Bullet points summarized by The Daily Bell • The Exchange Stabilization Fund (ESF) was created (without oversight) by Congress in the 1930s to ensure support of the Dollar. It has done a lousy job of what it was supposed to do, as the Dollar has lost almost all its value. • The ESF was put in the hands of the head of the US Treasury and the US Treasurer has absolute power to do what he wants with the fund. • As a result, the ESF has acted as a giant slush fund that has funded the growth of the American Empire over the past century against the will of both Congress and many bankers in private industry. • The ESF effectively runs the US Federal Reserve and tells the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (Fed) what to do. It does this because it is responsible for stabilizing the dollar and implementing policies that are in the national inte

While it's safe to assume that Farhan and friends are not on Rihanna's Christmas card list, they are definitely on mine and I hope they progress the arrested narrative to its logical conclusion.
