    How To Make Everything Hey Andy, I want to make a note about length units. The cubit you used can be useful for short lengths, but can be a pain to use for long distances. To combat that, I recommend measuring in paces. We use it quite often in making route maps. First, draw a line with a set distance, say 100 cubits, on the ground. Next, pace out how many steps you need to get from one end of the line to the other. Repeat this step two or three times, and average the amount.

    I love these vids but it would be really cool if the team could post their research sources in the description. I would love to read more on the ancient techs without having to comb through waves of inaccurate information edit: Sorry this isn't meant as an attack on the team, I really do love what they are doing here! It's just the reality of the internet that misinformed or outdated information is floating around and, in some cases, made more readily available to the average google searcher. By providing links to the the research they are using to base their video content on they would be enabling this community or other enthusiastic viewers to delve further into these topics on a more informed and academic basis. In my opinion, I think it is important to know where the information we collect is coming from and how credible it is. 2020 should be the year of critical thinking on the internet

    Got to say loving this series so far though one suggestion I have is it might be worth each episode having either you or Annalise take something you have already "invented" and use the skills and knowledge you have gotten so far to build a more refined version of it still using the old tech. I feel this will help a lot especially as you get to building things like squares (Hint the reason they were so good is they built a bad one first and then used that to build a better one and so on until they got pretty good). Plus I feel this will allow both you and Annalise to share the episode without it feeling too much like one person is doing all the work. Not to mention the more refined tools are going to save a lot of time in the future which means faster episodes and less time rebuilding/repairing tools.

I(a warehouse guy) work in a shop with builders, and one of the things that I say to distinguish what I can be asked to do vs what a builder should be doing is, If it can be done with a Square I'll do it, if it requires a Chalk Line then a builder should be doing it. Basically a square is limited to distances of about 3'-4'

    7:36 the Egyptians definitely knew about a whole series of sides guaranteed to make a right triangle, starting at 3:4:5, and used them in their architecture.

    3:4:5 teoreme was known already by Ptolomy in the first century atleast what we know...Pytagoras theoreme is a special case of Ptalomos theorem just, (Ptaalomos) Aa+Bb=Cc (no angle needs to be 90 deg), the basis is a square divided into four triangles where ABC and abc is opposide sides (Pytagoras 500 years later) A^2+B^2=C^2 , He just found a way to simplify it if one angle was 90 degees(or pi/2 a quatrter of a circle where the Radius of the axes could vary) Ptalomos way is a square inscrebed in a circle wheere all four corners are on the Radius...but every side can be of a different length...and thus all angels can be different.. (its a cute trick to use when 3:4:5 doesent work) ...And yes it was probably known long b4 Ptalomos ...we know for sure ppl known for atleast 5K years hpow to draw perpendiculars, so straigt corners wouldnt have been a problem...thay also used levelers based on water

    Just one thought about the saw: Are you sure it has to be cast in it's final state? Maybe just cast a green body and then 'forge' the details like the saws theeths. I'm under the impression that a small bit of more detail in your tools would get the projects a long way afterwards. As your 'civilisatoric progression' relies on tools being more and more 'professionalised' and thus capable.

    Bronze can't be forged easily. That's why iron was superior to bronze although bronze is actually harder. (Another factor is that iron is much more common than copper and tin) Eventually, he tried to "machine" his knife into a saw, which would be a good solution if he had a file or similar.

    @@AEON. The Hoover dam is bigger and more massive than any pyramid and much more advanced, if that's not enough the Three Gorges Dam is even bigger, if that's not enough for you then you are simply dishonest. The Pyramids while impressive are also incredibly simple structures as they are just big piles of rock and we build far more advanced things constantly these days. Hell if you want to see a bigger pile of rock just go look at the piles of coal and ore you can find outside of power plants and iron works. Nothing about the construction of the Pyramids is a mystery and these days we basically know all the details of how they were built, it's certainly impressive but far from impossible and far from difficult. And these days we are on the regular building way bigger structures anyways, hell just take a look at any modern container ship, they're way bigger than the pyramids and have to endure way tougher conditions.

    Your measurements method should be based on the dimensions of earth. I suggest you take the distance from the north pole to the equator and sepperate by 10000 to get one unit. If you want larger sizes you can put a adverb in front of the unit every time it gets 10 times larger. Also I suggest you use a size of 0,1 units by 0,1 units to use as a measurement for liquid. For weight you should make one unit of water and have that be the weight of one unit of weight. For temperature the freezing point of water should be 0 and the boiling point of water should be 100. You can make up any name you want for these units but I suggest u use this method. It makes a lot of sense because everyone's earth has the same size. But foots or ears can have different sizes

    Seeing the A-shaped angle measuring setup reminded me of what we had at our farm. When carpenters were needed, they had some tools of their own. But what we had was just one folding "carpenter's scale". As needed, we would make that A-shaped frame so that the points were desired length apart. Normally the distance was a fixed 2 meters apart. Then we could handily swing the frame repeatedly 180 degrees around and measure reasonably longer distances along a road or the size of some lot. When a temporary plumb was needed, a small stone sufficed for the weight. And of course, for brick laying a string pulled straight was a horizontal reference. For longer distance horizontal settings the hired craftsmen came with a rubber hose with both ends equipped with maybe 20 cm long glass tubes. The whole thing was nearly filled with water and both ends were raised or lowered until the water level matched a reference height and then the other end established a new remote reference height. For storage between uses, both ends were plugged with natural cork or maybe rubber stoppers.

    I have a LOT of respect for you for undertaking precision measuring. A huge component of technological progress has been using one set of precision instruments to make a more precise set- that how screws and such were possible! As far as measuring units, how about using the length or width (whichever is most uniform) of eight kernels of some type of grain? Your base unit of measure ("korn") is all of them together, and you can rearrange the individual units along your 1-korn stick to average out the length of your subsections. This gives you 8 "thmanykorns", 4 "arbekorns", and 2 "athnakorns". You can of course add korns together into "bikorns", "quadrakorns", "oktokorns", etc. Also, you might try going with fired ceramic split molds instead of lost-wax cob. Not only are they reusable, you can get the molds themselves rocket hot so that the metal doesn't solidify before filling the mold.

    The Pythagorean theorem is older than Pythagoras, its documented in Mesopotamia by 2000 BC, and in Egypt around the same time in the Berlin Papyrus 6619 (I wish we had an actual name for the document). So its possible that the pyramid builders could have used it. But still a great video. Keep up the good work.

    bro, I totally came here convinced you were gonna nail it but you went overboard! you could have just stopped at the string, that's literally all they needed. take a string and half it until you end up with 12 even divisions and mark them: now divide into 3 segments, each of 3,4,5 respectively. now you have a right angle and do not need a days work like you showed in the video (for which I am nonetheless grateful).

    I was hoping for a longer completed pyramid video! Only half a million years to wait.
