sample quote

The video came about when Destin Sandlin asked his father to explain to him how carburetors work in practice. This inspired him to build a transparent carburetor so that he could literally see what was happening inside. The device was built using a transparent resin 3D-printed housing for the bowl and venturi, and fitted with a float and needle from a Briggs and Stratton carburetor. Throttle and choke were then installed, made from 3D-printed PLA plastic. The clear carb was then installed on a small single-cylinder engine on a Craftsman garden tiller.

I like the transparent combustion chambers of cylinder heads filmed in super slow motion.

Visual education is highly underated.

If you study how most mathematics was first understood by the original person, most times that person was thinking of visual geometry drawings.

This is true of Einstein.
True of Gibbs in thermodynamics.
True of Maxwell in light and radio waves.
True of Newton in shooting a cannon from a high mountain and adding gunpowder until the cannon ball went all the way around the earth.
Even true of Gaileo with different mass balls of the same diameter rolling down ramps or running experiments inside a steadily moving ship versus on land.

As rudimentary as it was it was cool to watch, i really liked seeing the reversion pulse.
