Always remember this episode as it's full of great ideas😊❤️
Adam has a waybof making something complicatedvand maybe boring into an easy to understand topic. I saw this on telly years ago and found it on here tonight, just had to watch it again. I still cant quite workbout how that compressed air coolerbthing works though. Great vid Adam.
Thanks for the upload! Thoroughly enjoyed it :)
Still a very enjoyable program thank you A H-D
seen on tv many years ago
liked this a lot. food for thought ;O)
I miss this TV programme
Excellent stuff! I miss Adam Hart Davis's shows, needs to make more! Though isn't using a modern fridge made of plastic kind of defeating the purpose haha? Still really cool to do all that
The whole project seems to rely on plastic tubes which are made from oil and the bath is made with an hydraulic press that runs on oil

littlebigmanlbm to be fair, when we run out of oil, the plastic tubes that already exist won't disappear
The girl on the bike was so 2000s hot
Who needs oil when you can have a slave outside your house peddling a modified exercise bike to run your house.
