[@europamacmillan9498]

Amazing that there are still skilled artisans that can do this type of work

Thanks. Now if I ever get time-shifted to the past I'm gonna be rich.

@@atmakali9599 He's implying that SEEING the process is enough to be able to perform the process, so that going back centuries, he'll be ahead of the process and get rich performing it. Of course, that means understanding metallurgy, acid distillation, glass manufacture, mineral pigmentation, and kiln firing. If he understands all those before going, you'd think he will miss modern plumbing, food, and conveniences. To each his own.

@@borderlineiq It's a joke.

[@borderlineiq]

@@Stanzafly Yes. But if you have to explain anything about a joke, it is no longer funny. If answering "why," then it is all a bit academic.

Could you add subtitles in other languages? That would be great

[@buckdog225]

So is this how halcyon trinket boxes our made

[@colorlight9702]

Neat

[@hanohano0326]

🖒🖒🖒🖒

[@Buckets41369]

Ah yes, the key ingredient: chemicals!

[@user-wm1em1rg4p]

Main chemicals in this case would be borax and either sodium or potassium salts to lower the melting point. But the fact that they're adding clay means "chemicals" is about as specific as you can get. No chemical formulas for dirt.

[@anishrana6702]

All that effort just to put a tobacco? That box must be expensive.

[@jeaneunia1178]
