    I have also taken quills from a roadkill porcupine, as well as skulls, bones, etc. Good to salvage what's already laying there as a free resource. You'll be ahead of others that think it's too gross or wouldn't even consider the uses of natural resources like that. We use domesticated animals for thousands of products and food, why wouldn't we do the same with wild animals just because we didn't hunt them ourselves?

    to everyone worried they were about to tattoo the cat: he might already have a tattoo! sometimes vets will tattoo a green line on the tummy of house cats who are spayed/neutered. with feral and/or community cats they ear tip them, meaning they cut a itty bitty bit off the top of one of that's ears, so if they're ever caught again vets know they are fixed already. my cat penelope has a little green tattoo on her tum from her spay. i think it's kinda cute!

Though we do have plastic data storage like cd's and hard drives(?) that could potentially last 2000years relative intact under right conditions, so historians 2000 years later can look into your porn folder...

    I got started doing tattoos with a sewing needle taped to a pen, using ballpoint pen ink. The tattoos kinda faded into a light blueish color even though the ink was black, but it didn't get infected, the lines didn't bleed into the skin and it's still looking pretty good. I guess my point is that as long as you have something pointy, a dark pigment and a sterile environment you can make pretty dope tattoos.

    I usually get tattoos of things that mean something to me. Like I tattooed my cat’s paw print on my right shoulder. She was the cat I grew up with and always was so cuddly and nice, she did a lot for my life. I also have a skull with a top hat because that’s now a tradition in my family that started with my grandpa who got me into the career path that I work and basically structured my entire skill set. And I have a heart with mom... because my mama

    It's not forever. Your body's immune system has a difficult time breaking up and then removing closely clustered pockets of pigment(hence the tattooist saying of "Bold will hold") but from day one the body is trying it's best to remove the pigment from the body. This is why old tattoos look "blown out".

    There are a bit of issues with how things were performed. First at 10:01 that quill is definitely not sterile, if anything it has been disinfected (but most likely not from from the quality of alcohol, and how the alcohol was distilled and treated). The quill should have been sterilized by using an autoclave, ora combination of heat and alcohol (probably an hour near boiling). It would have been a good idea to either ask the tattoo parlour or the tattoo artist who used the quill on how they sterilize their equipment. The choice of dye is a bit concerning because of the possibility of carcinogens. That soot hasn't been treated properly and there is probably a degree of incomplete combustion during the preperation.

    I remember a while back when you were making glass you used a limestone which probably was from the Magnolia member of the Platteville limestone which is the upper part of that limestone which overlies the saint peter sandstone. I am aware you had some problems with your glass and some of that may be due to that the magnolia member isnt a pure limestone but a dolomitic limestone which means it has incorporated magnesium. Also magnolia while it may look relatively pale it has quite a bit of iron which is why when it is cooked it turns red (sometimes). If you want a close and more pure source of limestone in southwestern MN there are cretaceous chalks which are exposed in a few places however a lot of glacial deposits are derived from this and the chalk can be picked out. Morris MN looks like it has a few deposits like this also Ortonville does too. You might also find some shark teeth at these sites too.

    We initially were going to talk to an artist who had trained with traditional hand poke tattoo masters in Borneo and a few other places in Polynesia and eastern Asia, but unfortunately the interview fell through due to scheduling. It took a while to decide which method to do but we went with the porcupine quill because that method is local to a few Midwestern Native Tribes, we were lucky enough to find that porcupine (we were going to try and talk to a porcupine handler at the Minnesota Zoo before Daniel found it), and it makes for a really impressive story that we got tattoos with a porcupine quill. I didn't know that about the capillary action, thanks for that!
