Oil Clock
a unique timepiece that answers the age old question "how do you tell time with canola oil?" | |
I got this idea looking at balsamic
vinegar
in olive oil.
a tank of canola (rapeseed) oil (just
because it's cheap), with a black box on
top. in the box is water with a dark dye
in
it. the time is put into a computer
program that regulates the numerous
valves at the top of the oil tank,
and
every
ten seconds, it spits out the time to the
nearest minute, in water, like those
fountains that write words. If anyone else
knows what I'm talking about, let me
know. a pump at the bottom takes the
water back to the top.
anyway, you could use different oils
and
different dyes to match the decor in your
particular abode.

you don't tell time from canola oil by
asking it about the weather. so there. |
