It took me a little while to get used to your, let's call them "limited" results when I first started watching HTME a while back. Once I figured out the whole point you're trying to make about technological progress, it really started to blow my mind. I love the lengths that you go to avoid "cheating," because the struggle really is what this is all about. I was watching the whole lathe project in this episode, and realized that you did all off that, not just to build a lathe... but to build an abucus.... holy cow man. You have earned the heck out of all the subscribers you have. This show gets better with every episode. Great work. Love your well thought out content.

@brrebrresen1367

maybe not the best stone for grinding, a sandstone would been better there. but as a flywheel it would be perfect. and could increase the performance of a lathe with the combination of say an footpedal and "pushrods" to make into circular motion and not back an forth motion like this and the earliest foot-powered ones. just look up old foot-driven sewing machines, they are really simple in construction for the part that makes the circular motion

i like how he did what all civilizations do at the advent of a new technology like the lathe and said "screw it the old way is easier" then made the beads out of clay. of course this will go to the wayside as lathe tech improves... but the first attempt is never the best.

Wonderful video as always. The Lathe v2: Instead of the leather cord of the bow wrapping around the work piece, Cast one of the ends as a shaped cylinder that is held in a cradle allowing it to rotate,. Then wrap the leather cord around this cast cylinder.

This channel rules! I always learn something new whenever I watch. This is really my favorite type of learning, holistic and historical.

Not the most important thing, but your woodworking is looking a lot less like "hacked this with a dull bit of rock" (which was entirely to be expected when that's what you were doing) and a lot more like dimensional lumber. Also love the bronze center points for the lathe, that was a really clever way to do that.

I've been learning how to use an abacus now that I've been trying to improve my math skills. I'm a highly visual and kinetic person, so I'm trying a similar medium. I'm also making a conlang (constructed language), and have hit a wall with trying to figure out whether or not I should just rip off our current one. Somehow, this video was not only entertaining, but helped two issues I've been rapidly drawing towards. I don't know how you did it, but this video gets three gold stars!

Did you ever notice how odd our verbal counting system is? We don't voice the 0 normally, we count 1-12 as a group, then 13-19, finally continuing with groups of 10 (20-29 ECT). I find it fascinating!

The whole bow lathe blew my mind. I've made bow drills and the combination seems so intuitive now that I've seen it. I'll be making my own attempt here shortly, thanks for the inspiration!

Andy: Today we carve and cast, tomorrow we compute! Me: Damn that is fast...

We've got time and counting. We want a calendar now!

I like how he uses tools he made in his previous videos.

It takes somebody like you to truly appreciate the potential of that abacus. I found out about the abacus back in 2009 and I have been studying it to this very day. I'm not anywhere as fast as the people in Japan with this instrument but I will tell you my friend I'm in college right now and I got a 3.0. learning how to build houses, any test that comes my way I pass it without a calculator. I started with little rocks pebbles from a river and learned the concepts. by the time I finally finished learning how to use it I had received my first abacus. I wish I would have seen this video back then. I would have had an abacus instead of just pebbles. Thank you for making this video.

I lost it at "Ow! That is sharp!" :D

It's been a week I'm trying to give online classes (mainly phone calls and text, photos and videos or links on whatsapp) to my friends and your playlist of the reset is now really helping me thanks to the simplicity of your script and visuals I can't thank you enough for making this video's

Nah people looked at the cycles of the moon (full moon back to full moon=1 month) since the stone age and knowing the season is also rather intuitive. The thing which took us a while was the prediction of eclipses.

As a math major, I especially loved this installment.

It's amazing how much work you guys put into these! You should do live streams to give us a true sense of how long it takes! Keep it up!

Love the lathe Andy. It may be slow but it does the job.

This video reminds me of a series I watched a while ago called Mastercrafts. Particularly one called Greenwood Crafts. The guy used a extremely simple pole lathe with only a sapling, some leather rope, and a rig to hold the sapling in place. It was fascinating to watch and I think you might like it. Its still on KZread. Ps. Your explanation on math and numbers gave me flashbacks to my dad's lectures on the importance of the number 0 and how it revolutionized math and how modern calculations would be impossible without it. Since he's a programer I assume he knows what he's talking about. It was just so nostalgic to hear and gave me a warm fuzzy feeling.

Kinda cool how each invention looks better than the last and more complicated. IDK just interests me.

Honestly, the stuff you made are starting to become really impressive looking. I’d have trouble matching that quality in a modern workshop (not that that says a lot)

Your back wall looks really great! Not many people have created so many inventions.

7:25 I’m gonna press X to doubt on those perfectly drilled holes haha Still love your work; keep them coming!

Was hoping for base 12 system, but very impressed nonetheless. Great to see all this coming together :)

When I was a child in Taiwan we learned to use it in elementary school. I'd say I was using it pretty fast but after moving to America I promptly forgot how to use it

Honestly you should get some kind of show on netflix or something, or maybe not, all I'm sayin is that you make some really high quality stuff that youtube probably isn't paying very well for.

Well, who wouldn't?

I started watching your videos around the Thanksgiving or Sandwich video. I am impressed by how far you have come. 😁 I look forward to seeing what you do next.

If you started a PBS style education channel which left out the crafts but still described number systems as you have, I'd be super into that as well

Fun thing about the sexigesimal base for circles: if you take a circle of radius A, select a point on the circumference, draw another circle of radius A, then continue the cycle from the intersection of the two circles, you will get six segments - so the natural division of a circle for any base is radix*6. Some are more natural than others - an angular system based on a binary progression has no issue being recreated from scratch, but other require more work, such as trisecting angles and working from multiple separate divisions (such as 5, 6, and so on) just to create a smaller angle measurement.

Long time subscriber, Love your videos and channel, keep up the awesome work!

i think the biggest things i took away from this video was how blown away i was to learn that the base time digits, 12 and 60, is all based on an old counting system.

Im gonna start using that babylonian hand counting method that's pretty brilliant honestly

ive been following this channel since 35,000 subs and I still think this is an undersubscribed channel. I have respect for the awesome amount of work and patience this stuff takes and If you're reading this unsubscribed just click the button.

*comes out of lockdown with extremely buff right arm" "Spent a lot of time with the bow lathe"

I went with base 12, because it has convenient factors: {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12} Then again, I was introduced to "New Math" in public school, and we made our own Abaces. (From kits.)

Your one of my favorite youtubers. I am subscribed with the bell active, how am i still missing your videos in my feed? Last one i saw was the toilet paper. The one bright light is that once i see one i can usually binge a few.

Great video. I like abacus a lot and bought one for my 3y-o son. he loves it and can count up to 40 now.

"in the next episode we're gonna learn how to dope silicon to make high speed compact NAND flash memory using this wooden mallet and a bag of sand."

Love this series

You get more precise cuts with your homemade tools than I do with mordern ones 😂

Roy Underhill, with the WoodWright Shop (PBS) had a detailed episode on how to make the Bow lathe and other tools,and a dandy horse. Andy should watch as many as he can for industrial/preindustrial Knowledge. once he watches he will defiantly want to make some things with treadles.

You know, now that you have a lathe, paper, and several forms of adhesives, maybe you should work towards sandpaper? It makes a remarkable cutting and shaping tool for a lathe and it's a big help for making finished parts that need to fit tightly together (your lathe had a loose fit on one side that was causing it to wobble a bit, that probably made it much harder to spin than it needed to)

Why is everyone writing first? We know it's the first computer already

In the Sahara, at the juncture of a number of ancient trade routes, lies a massive rock - a landmark seen for miles across the desert. Archeologists have discovered carved into the rock a series of pecked holes in a rectangular grid pattern. Most prevalent theory is that this grid is a very basic form of abacus, with pebbles fitting into the holes acting as counters. Estimated age in excess of 5K years.

Since you now have a finer grasp on a numerical system, i think a cool idea for an episode would be a ruler and a fine point pencil.

I think something similar to nail could be made by whittling a shape close to a golf tee in wood and predrilling a hole so it'd be a friction fit for your pin/nail

@How To Make Everything I'm pretty sure you use the egg white as the binding agent for the ink, not the egg yolk. Hopefully, it helps with future projects. I'm not too sure how the egg yolk does it though.

Have you ever wondered why the Chinese abacus is the type of abacus most often cited as the ancestor of digital computer? The answer to the question may lie in the fact that the Chinese abacus has two heaven beads and five earth beads along each rod, and thus that makes the difference from other types of abaci. The Chinese abacus is commonly used for working in decimal, but it may be used as well for hexadecimal numbers. Note that when all beads along a rod are set then the sum of bead values would exactly be equal to 15 or F. Hexadecimal numerals are widely used by computer system designers and programmers because they provide a human-friendly representation of binary-coded values.

"When you're a fledling civilization starting to deal with thousands of millions of people". I can only think of three civilizations dealing with those quantities. Two of those probably wouldn't like being referred to as fledling, and saying the third is fledling is pretty bleak.

Millions of things like millions of seeds of wheat would have been possible pretty early in the Agricultural Revolution. Tbr An entire city could easily have 10,000 goats or 10,000 sheep. 100,000 pigeons was achieved pretty early in human civilization also as we have evidence for dovecotes as old as 2,000 BCE if I recall correctly

Soak a piece of leather (or fabric though this dries out faster) in water then wrap it around the sticks. Place the stick in a perfectly strait grove cut into a piece of wood that is shallower than the wrapped stick, and place another piece of wood with a grove on top of it. Then wrap the two with a piece of cord and place a weight on top of them. The grooves and wood surfaces should be flat and uniform to place equal pressure across the surfaces. With the weight and constant moisture from the leather, this will allow you to turn the sticks into perfectly strait dowels. These dowels can be used for the abacus or on the lathe to make easier work with the bow. The method can be used to make a uniform curve to produce a better bow for the lathe. Also, using a piece of rough stone can work as sandpaper with the lathe or without it to smooth surfaces. Smooth strait wood will make many of your projects much easier.

Loved it

That’s pretty cool 👍

i think that you should really start considering bog iron in really small quantities like a small rod for for drilling or small blade for a wood planer

In the future if you want to remake it you could maje a pedal lathe that works somewhat similarly to a spinning wheel

I love your Braun age tuning fork

whilst in quarantine you could maybe improve some of the bronze/copper tools, like the saw, by shaping the saw theet in a better way you could improve it verry much
