  • Adam gives his Royal Orb replica a long-awaited upgrade: a secret function hidden in the sphere that makes it one of the most novel and unusual things he's ever built. The sheer ridiculousness of turning an icon of the crown jewels into a cigarette dispensing music box brings Adam so much joy!

    along with the whole "dispensing death" thing, I love the idea of a very fancy bejeweled device as a service dish for something as common as cigarettes. would have also been nice as something like a candy or chip bowl. also, the irony of filling the British crown jewels with 'American Spirit' brand cigarettes is particularly great.

      The real irony is probably that American tobacco and Presidents have killed more people in the last century than the whole lineage of British monarchs.

    Great build, it is very interesting to see how Adam works through his engineering obstacles. Maybe it could be used to dispense candy cigarettes ( if you can still find them ) instead of actual cigarettes. For your electrical switching you may want to use magnetic reed switches, they are great for situations like this with movement triggering and tight spaces.

      Popeye cigarettes are now Popeye candy sticks which are the same as before but without the red tip. Finding the chocolate and gum is much more difficult as most countries have outright banned them.

    You actually showed the magic trick that made me quit smoking ... American Spirit. I wasn't primarily addicted to nicotine, but to all the secret additives they put in major brand cigarettes. Trying American Spirit taught me that and I quit smoking completely before finishing that first pack of 20. Was really easy too, it did provide nicotine to build down the level over a few days and I never looked back since (~15 years).

    • @TheYongary
      @TheYongary Před 7 měsíci +3

      What’s interesting about that is American Spirits typically have more tobacco and filler in them and therefore more nicotine exposure, making them some of the more addictive cigarette brands.

    • @Dawwwg
      @Dawwwg Před 7 měsíci

      @@TheYongary If you're sensitive to nicotine that is; but I noticed the nicotine - aka smoking AS - did not do 'anything' for me, making it really easy to quit quickly.
      There was no 'rush / craving' to smoke at least every 30 or 60 minutes, like with other brands; so it really was from a pack a day to 3 or 4 cigarettes a day over night for me (and quit completely within a week).
      Your mileage may vary, but for anyone that hasn't tried AS, it could be worth a shot !

      I've been addicted to American Spirits products for twenty years. They are owned by one of the big corporations now and are no longer independent, that happened about six years ago. They also now only grow their tobacco in North Carolina, not in New Mexico, but I'm pretty sure they still use a strain of tobacco called nicotiana rustica, which has over thirteen percent freebase nicotine versus whatever blend Marlboro uses that is about five percent. One thing I noticed is that when I switched to rolling my cigarettes as opposed to buying packs, I smoked less, and consumed overall much less tobacco. Anyway, I'm a week or so into my quitting plan, it's going well and I hope to be rid of nicotine by January 1. Congratulations on breaking free and staying that way!

    • @Dawwwg
      @Dawwwg Před 7 měsíci

      @@pedrodepacas-ic1cb My experience is indeed like 15 years ago; hope they did not change the formula to have all the secretive addictive additives too now; a bit more nicotine without additional checimals is still way less 'bad' for your health than all the other (mostly also cancer-inducing) stuff.
      PS: Keep up the good work & stay strong (and out of other peoples smoke too; that can be so seductive, especially when alcohol is involved too ! )

      Yes, very much so. It ties into the "divine right of kings" and represents the monarch being entrusted with God's power on Earth.
      The merits of that philosophy are debatable, but the visual representation is pretty decent, in my opinion.

    I KNEW the symbolism of the Orb.
    1: It's NOT the "Ugliest".
    2: You have the Meaning turned around.
    The Bible says God sets up Kings & Queens upon the Throne (but can also.. take them Down). It is NOT saying The King IS.. OVER ..GOD.
    It REMINDS the Sovereign that THEIR Power is FROM GOD...NOT.. OVER GOD. Else a Crown would b on top.
    It is divided up into 3 sections, for the 3 KNOWN Continents in Medieval Times.
