Manifold Clock Tells Time with a Fan



Studio V is an industrial design firm in Tel Aviv. It recently produced the Manifold Clock, which folds and unfolds a fan as the hands circulate. At the link, you can watch a time-lapse video of it in action.

I find the video a bit dubious in that it doesn't show a full cycle of the clock so we can see if the fan curls and uncurls smoothly.

It's a candle recycler! You put a wick in the tall tube and put the candle in the little cup, after several have burned out, the unused wax has formed around the wick and you use the spike on the left to unmold it!

And I want/need the gallbladder plush! I need a new one, I had mine removed :(

looks like a candle holder and possibly a candle maker? put hot wax in the thingy to the right then when it hardens pop it out and mount it on the spike to the left. maybe thats it. these things always look like torture devices though.

It's a winder of some kind. The part on the right of the photo is for controlling speed. The stub on the left is for holding a bobbin/thread spool. By changing the ratio on the right, you can control speed of winding. Based on size, I would guess for winding thread spools. There would be an arm that sits on top of the spool, and has a set of graduated shapes like the piece on the right. My guess is the feed belt is on the top, with winding spindle above the spool.

it's a water fountain. some kind of cork stops the water and you take it out to drink.

It is the Ronco "PILE DRIVER"(tm) home hemorrhoid treatment device. You lubed the small end with Popeil's "Butt-lube"(tm) and filled the large chamber with ice water. Then you sat on the small end and a small motor circulated soothing cold water through the machine. Also available: a "Clapper"(tm) compatible remote control.

It's a bunsen burner. The flame (left) has to be far enough away from the fuel canister (right) so it doesn't set it on fire.

I'd like the banana fruit jacket.

GasX for the 19th Century. Especially effective after grandma's bean casserole surprise.

with this pattent pending release valve, to help silently alleviate the "surprise" part of the casserole, suddenly grandma seems a lot nicer. And you aren't scared of left overs any more.

I'd like a Robot USB Hub!

p.s. I love Miss Cellania's standard response :-)

Ear wax remover. Warm water fills the tall cup. Patient places ear over small upward hole while warm water flows into the ear. Wax and water then falls, not over patient. Simples.

Manufactured by the same company that makes the Stanley Cup, this is the Stanley Hookah Pipe, awarded every year to the winner of the Beer Pong Tourney at Burning Man.

Can't believe no one got this. It's the Super version of the folding plastic drinking cup with the built in soft pretzel holder.
