This one.
It balances and opens beer bottles!
I had one of these that was Boba Fett. He had really big arms, and if I remember correctly, it came out of a kids meal from Taco Bell.
Ali Spagnola topped this by making a giant balancing bird
Imagine that size made out of tungsten
Ever done this trick?
I wanna make one those floating tables that works on this weird science.
I could buy one, but I want to make one to better understand how it works because I just can’t wrap my head around written or verbal explanations.

i like the little table orb things
The outer chains are purely for stability of the top. The center one holds all weight.
Rubber band in the middle is trying to contract, pulling the top of the table up, and the chains keep it level?
Not completely right. The middle can just be a piece of chain as well, but it needs to be under tension. Steve Mould explains it very well in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0onncd0_0-o
Something like that; has something to do with tension but I could not explain it if my life depended on it lol
What wizardry is this
It’s because the system’s centre of gravity is under the table, and on the table’s side of the fulcrum.
Edit:
Edit2:
Just so that you know all these things are in terraria and you can attack things with them. Not the fidget spinner but the other things are in there.
terraria predates fidget spinners
Damn, I didn’t know Terraria needed to eat.
True, they keep adding stuff. They may add fidget spinners as well. Who knows, they keep pushing ‘final’ finalest updates if all times, til the next one. And that’s really cool.
it’s really cool how much they’ve worked on it over the years. but it’s not for me. i played it when wall of flesh was the final boss, and after beating that i felt like i was done with that gameplay loop.
It can feel very work like. If you don’t like strip minining in minecraft this is not fir you. I actually like building small bases and the limited set of ores works fine enough for me. Yeah in comparison terraria can be overwhelming. But when it’s fun it’s actually fun like few other things. It’s also a very lighthearted game, minecraft will forever be melancholic. It’s also addicting if you’re the kinfd of person who likes consistend upgrades.
personally i can never get into things that want me to grind for the sake of grinding. vanilla minecraft is a no-go, give me automation.
Is that a caveman dildo
Supposedly, on any of the many occasions when archaeologists have found what is clearly an antique dildo, tradition advised labeling them something like “ceremonial relic.”
noooonooononono just a good old Roman Good Luck Charm!
Has science gone too far‽
Ian Malcolm? I thought you were fictional!
Automatic upvote for Jurassic Park.
What the heck are these called??
They’re birds.
They’re not real.
What isn’t?
Birds.
Now that’s a blast from the past. I can feel that picture.
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
That’s some kind of physics or something.
I mean…yes? Physics are involved for sure.
Naw, that definitely defies the laws of physics.
My dad had one made from metal with a guy who had his legs stretched out instead of the bird wings and I think you can guess what was used as the balance point.
Glue?
Nope. The wings are weighted so that the bird is perfectly balanced on its beak. You could set it on a pole and it would do the same thing, just didn’t work on a table because the wings tail and belly would be what touched the table.
