post some cool objects that you have, can be technologically relatedthis is a Tungsten cube (also called Wolfram in some countries), it is roughly the 5th heaviest element with 19.25 g/cm3, not far from Osmium's 22.59 g/cm3The dimensions are 2.5cm^3 and it weighs roughly 300 grams. it's amazing holding it in your hand and feeling how heavy it is, whole time your brain is like "an object so small shouldn't feel that heavy"also it has the highest melting point of any element at 3400C
i love ,cube
>>109721848hey that is pretty cool OP
>>109721848cube
did you buy your tungsten cube from tungsten dot com at the tungsten cube shop section?when i first learned about it i searched "tungsten cube" and found hilarious that a website called tungsten cube dot com existed its still funny when you think about iti might have been drunk at the time, and i might be drunk now but i wont tell you
>>109721995yeah i was drunk when i ordered it too, but it was from a local ebay seller, he only has two items listed, small tungsten cube (mine) and large tungsten cube (1kg). literal tungsten merchant, does nothing else and sells loads of them to autists like us
tungsten cube funniest shit ive ever heard
viral marketing thread
>>109721848Gold is heavier. Gold is way cooler.
>>109722064gold is pretty much the same:W - 19.25 g/cm3Au - 19.32 g/cm3Gold's quality is mostly extrinsic because of the monetary value people place on it. but Tungsten is cooler as a metal in itself
>>109722107now there's some cope if i ever heard it
>>109722119what is gold being used for? decorating stuff mostly and representing money. it's the capitalists' most boring metal in existanceshiny rock make people go kuku
>>109721848>ram shortage>start making it out of wolves
>>109721848i wish i had a tungsten cube
>>109722133golds value comes from being easy to work with even bronze age toolsif it wasn't so damn expensive people would be eating from gold plates with gold cutlery and a gold goblet on the side
>>109722133It's used to make poorfags upset, never fails
>>109722147in case you're interested how much they cost, i've been looking at the prices before i bought mine recently, and in the UK, and they were roughly:1cm^3 (28g) ~ £102.5cm^3 (300g) ~ £1203.8cm^2 (1kg) ~ £270there exist even bigger ones for thousands of pounds
>>109722142this is being tested already
>>109722164i think i will purchase a 2.5ccm tungsten cube
>>109722205Oh no my poor little babies :(
>>109722228go for it. but i was moping that other anons would show some cool things they've got but so far it's all cube talk
>>109721848>not far from Osmium's 22.59 g/cm3the average difference in mass between elements *lighter* than tungsten is roughly 0.17 grams per cubic centimeter.yeah, it is pretty fucking far from osmium.
>>109722445
>>109722322
>>109722518:O
>>109722518zamn
>>109722133it is in the device you are posting from now retard
>>109722156No. They used silver because it oxidizes and kills germs on the surface so you don’t have to wash your silverware.
>>109722107>Gold's quality is mostly extrinsic because of the monetary value people place on it.Gold looks nice and does not corrode.
>>109721995Oh fuck, they have magnesium cubes too.
>>109722612i cant believe tungstan cube dot com would betray us like that
I have a lithium battery cube, it can make light.
>>109722612magnesium is also cool because it's one of the least dense metals, like 10x lighter than tungsten, so it's cool to have them both for comparison
>>109722480trouble with osmium is it is prohibitively expensive. a 1cm^3 cube will set you back about 2000 dollars, and such small ones are not as impressive. it gets into the tens of thousands for bigger ones
>>109722612Sheeeeeit.
>>109722707True but at least it's not as expensive as iridiumWhen I grow up and become a boomer I will buy cubes of every platinum group metal with my retirement money
I love brass and like brass balls.
>>109722812Brass and lead
Are objects even technology?...I'm calling the police.
i am now manually thinking about purchasing a heavy cube
>>109722819I'm into fire hydrants too.
>>109722205what the fuck is this real?
>>109722812cool brass, what are the balls for?
>>109722937licking
>>109722322>>109722522>>109722922Why are posts sad about animal abuse all ending in 22?
>>109722993I am hereby asking you to stop nooticing.
>>109721848I have heard of these wondrous relics.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7EocA1hsCU
>>109722937These comes from ball valves. 3/4 to 2 inches. 3/4 are nice since you can have 2 or 3 in one hand and juggle them.
>>109722518I love these types of images.
