A bit OT but..............It's nice to have free time to play with 'coins'
This is somewhat mesmerizing, until it falls down.

    Couple of thoughts:

    • Our cat would have knocked it over after 15 minutes, just because we were ignoring him.
    • Fire? In your basement? You thought it was a good idea to light it on fire? (Hope the local fire department has his name on file). :)

    He is resourceful though, Look at him standing on two paint cans to get some height towards the end. :smile:

    PS Maybe he 'lives' in his parents basement?

    I could have read most college textbooks in that timeframe.

    A couple of points.
    Most anyone knows that you don't build a structure on an unstable base - like CARPET. DUH
    Playing with fire in the basement is not a good thing. At any time.
    I am certain his parents will be ecstatic when he moves out of their basement.

    Yep. When I get a few free minutes I like to pull out the set of Stellas and see which spins the best: gold, silver, bronze or aluminum.....Usually gold wins.

    What does "OT" mean?... Is that like OCD? This is exactly how I display my Morgan collection, except I prefer gasoline to the lightweight fluid that guy was using. Better AT!

    OT means "Off Topic", not totally/directly related to numismatics, etc :smile:
