Not the same. This "vessel's" sole purpose was rubbernecking. The "tech" for deep dive vessels exists ( witness the "rescue vessels sent to the scene ), the difference between them and this vessel is that this was a "Rube Goldberg" device, cobbled together to transport rich tourists to a depth...

They would have enforced an interdiction for this "vessel" ( I use the word loosely ) to dive to the Titanic site how ? Why did they not do so ? They have no enforcement power. They have no navy.

It was "voyeur tourism" ( visit an underwater mass grave ) , like the people who take selfies at Auschwitz , incomprehensible , to me at least.

it's on ( or under ) the "high seas" though..regulation there ? whos's rules and regs? enforced how and by whom?

I'm a lot older than Mr Nubs..have been working with wood ( and other media, materials, primarily as a sculptor , designer , artist ) since probably before his father saw a plane..as have many others here..getting paid ( making a living from what one makes ) is a far better guide to...

that's the one where the lady spreading it on herself always got my undivided attention..many tv ads ( here, and in the UK and elsewhere ) did / do that to my attention..I used to be in the ad business ( freelancer ) , amongst other things making TV ads and photo shoots , fashion, record...

There's other people here who have very interesting youtube channels too, ( hand tools,power tools , finishing etc ) but they don't post so often of late..Mr Makery ? ( might have got his name wrong ) comes to mind.

You were doing so well until this He's the woodworkers equivalent of Stephen Fry..sounds like an expert, unless you already knew what he "discovered". Got a lot of planes though..well arranged behind him..looks like a plane shop.. You want a youtuber woodworker who knows what he's talking...

Uumm ..Phil... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snake_oil Elbow grease however...

Unfortunately , the reason why so much effort is being made to rescue these 1diots as opposed to the poor people dying weekly in the med, is either (1) because these people could pay the cost of the rescue and not notice it. Either that or (2) rich peoples lives are considered to be worth more (...

Priceless when setting out / laying foundations..I have two.

Baby oil is not made from babies. ..some will be relieved.

Better still, for the wrist and carpal tunnel, use a graphics tablet and pen with your laptop / PC , xp-pen et al do some very nice ones, without the expense of wacom. keep a mouse for mousy things.

Cornwall is probably more stressful ( due to the tourists, being in the UK, whatever.. ) to a hen than Kilkenny, plus we had cows, sheep, horse, donkeys,ducks, geese ( and turkeys at xmas ). the mix..and the greenest of grass*, is calming. Visit Ireland ( The Republic , Eire ) outside of Dublin...

Sack o'spuds ( 25kgs ) here is £4.00 ( just bought one yesterday , straight from the farm ) ..also IME witches aren't twitchy, t'ones I know / knew are soooo laid back..all the herbs, spices and shrooms that does it. When I lived in London ( twice during the 70s ) , I used to regularly walk...

Too late.The children, and Paul..were startled. Chickens ( and many other things, including us ( sort of , ish ) ) are small descendants of dinosaurs..thus act like them. farm life with livestock is a lot redder than people think. Although chickens behaving like that is rare amongst true free...

don't startle the children

I bought a second hand lathe locally ( Paimpol ) Sunday before last.I only need it for making one thing ( twice ), but I'll...

Myriad of things one used / uses it for on farms ( well we did on our farm..SE Ireland ) The Birch version was / is used aswell..the smell of it was what gave rise to the smell of waterproofed leather goods from Russia, and which a soap manufacturer claimed that their soap smelled like.
