Jimmy DiResta Makes Bookends

Added on by C. Maoxian.

I love watching Jimmy DiResta make stuff. Here he is free-handing the bandsaw again.  Take note of the shape of the pinkie finger on his left hand.  It met the bandsaw up close one time.  

See the full post at Make: http://makezine.com/video/diresta-bookends/ Bookends are often too light to hold up a stack of heavy tomes. In this episode, Jimmy DiResta makes a simple yet elegantly crafted set of steel bookends, TIG welded in a whimsical shape yet heavy enough to securely store your library.

I first learned about Jimmy DiResta from his TV show "Dirty Money," which is still the best trash-to-cash show I've ever seen.  It ran only one season which proves that the TV gods are not just.

Twitter Trend Down Day

Here's the three minute chart for Twitter ... I see one "obvious" spot to get short just after noon ... interested to know how day traders who were short this played it.  It was liquid enough to draw a very clean chart even down on the one minute, where a short spot appeared a bit earlier (at 11:35 or so).  Drop me a line if you made money shorting this one intraday.
