I see random claims that strychnine really does work as a stimulant in small doses - the historical quote is that it "takes the flabbiness out of a man". At high doses it causes cramps (unto death) so I guess the theory is that low doses increases intentional muscle activation?

bobmarleysghost posted:As someone else posted, you can see his arm being broken at the elbow, just a quick snap when the piece breaks off and lands on his arm. To be fair, as far as injuries involving a lathe go, a broken elbow is a relatively minor injury considering most lathe injuries involve the terms 'de-gloving' and/or 'injuries not compatible with life'.

It could well be apocryphal, but according old family lore (I think my great grandmother on my dad's side?) strychnine is supposedly a fantastic substitute for baking powder and makes some extremely fluffy delicious biscuits. In case anyone was wondering.

Muscle Wizard posted:you might want to look up the direct response to that quote. I mean yeah, it's not great stuff. (Though "the paleolithic in a bottle" is more evocative than enlightening). Still, rummaging around pubmed suggests it really does work. I'm not at work, so I don't have any journal access - but to quote the google scholar summary of chapter 17 of Handbook of Toxicology of Chemical Warfare Agents (Patocka 2017): Strychnine has stimulant effects at low doses but, because of its high toxicity and tendency to cause convulsions, the use of strychnine in medicine was eventually abandoned once safer alternatives became available.

Compressed air is highly dangerous and can cause some really gnarly wounds.

Uthor posted:To blow air in your mouth! I've started to see air lines more often at fancy barber shops. But even at the $20 cash-only spot where I get my hair cut they blow the hair clippings off of you (they just use a hair dryer with the heat off). That's clearly a better solution than trying to sweep it away.

Is this one of those things where the problem is that no one considered two things looked confusingly similar and the solution is to switch one of them to a design that won't physically fit in the other?

haveblue posted:Is this one of those things where the problem is that no one considered two things looked confusingly similar and the solution is to switch one of them to a design that won't physically fit in the other? Exactly. Or you make them exactly the same so you can leverage economy of scale if the parts all serve a similar purpose, in this case, pinning the NLG. The rub comes when a mechanic drops a part and doesn't know/ care that it happened. Nobody admits to that poo poo. EG for interchangeable parts: In the engines, the borescope port plugs are painted so they don't accidentally dump their oil on the tarmac or unbolt something on the line that they can't re-torque on the line (FAA Regs prohibit certain maintenance operations unless certified).

The barbershop on base, that does two hundred buzz cuts per day, duct tapes a shop vac hose to the clippers. That's safe, fast, and the cleanup is built right in!

Those are the best barbershops. In and out in 10 minutes, and a Korean lady (might vary base to base, but the majority at the time were Korean women, especially at Fort Campbell) gives you a scalp massage. I always tipped well at base barbershops. Haven't cut my hair in 5 years. Feels good.

That sounds like its a Basic Training base; how awful is it to be stationed at one as a non-trainee? I always felt like it would be miserable.

In the eighties my grandpa would take me to get my hair cut on base. I remember it cost $2.65. Sometimes he’d take me to an off base barber, and that guy had that weird vibrating thing he’d strap to his hand and give a quick shoulder massage. In hindsight it seems weird as hell.
