It doesn't work for metal; the geometries are completely different. Here's the file if you want to print your own Harambe bustin' nuts https://www.patreon.com/posts/28123420

    I realize it’s a full bathroom remodeling. But man the cut from “this is an unflattering outlet” to you absolutely demolishing the entire bathroom is hilarious.

    Gaaah! I really am interested in a lot of the topics Veritasium makes videos about, but I'd have to gauge my eyes out and bleach and burn them after every video to get sleezynes out so I only watch the ones I think may contain information what would otherwise be hard or a hassle to come by.. And I do not mean this at all personally, I't a condition I have and the medication is.. It's just too hard to take at this age. You'll understand, I'm sure 😉
