Tektites
A few of the tektites gathered through time -"out of this world" remnants of meteorites zipping in and around earth orbit, sometimes surviving the intense heat... presumably from the asteroid feild between Earth and Mars. The lighter is to show scale. The most recent find (the.largest in this group) has what seems like (Au) metal. Extremey difficult to date as new element Lutetium (Lu) is not made in commercial volume which makes it rare. Zeiss should incorporate this in optics, as it has reflective and diffraction properties aside from as above. I have yet to come across a micro diamond meteorite, It shall take perseverance and patience. No space cadets, preferably. :)
Omega
Here's an example of Swiss watch durability. A mint condition 1962 gold omega ladies watch from Geneva. Perfect working condition considering it had been unused for approximately four decades hermetically sealed by a hermit. Or was it Kermit?
Lute 3
Detail showing the level of craftsmanship. Needs a piezo transducer pickup pre-amp and a effects module.
Custom lute
A picture of a one of a kind stringed lute solidboy hardwood from palawan, now in a private collection in Switzerland.

Indio tears as a power source
I accept this challenge by an eccentric peninsulares and insulares tandem to prove that their power scammed from generations of tears shed by indios. I shall power a one Watt LED light for three minutes using nothing but tears.
The fly trap clock that traps insects and deposits them using flypaper coveyor belt into microbial fuel
Cell to power a digital clock has already been invented. Because this challenge infuriated me so much at first- being an affront to all colonized cultures and is true after all, we ourselves perpetuate this cycle of free will to be subjugated and claim to be proud to be pinoy, nothing more than slaves of a European king.
Better prepare that blank check, I'm way ahead.
SHAMANIC TOOLS 7
Micro ritual drums used to summon spirits using rhythm. entrainment. Bone, rattan, beads, snake, lizard and goat skin.
SHAMANIC TOOLS 5
Ritual steel bladed dagger from northern European Druid, with deerhorn handle with inlaid red glass eye.
SHAMANIC TOOLS 2
Anting- anting shamanic garb that protects the wearer against evil spirits of warriors killed in battle. Not an effective defence to Ward off physical projectiles. (don't ask me how I know this.)
SHAMANIC TOOLS 1
For holy water, boil the hell out of it. For holy oil, use a distillation coil and fragrant flowers of choice, mix wih the first rain of may.

Current projects: Marble speaker side tables
Another one in flow are a pair of fine romblon marble speakers that also double as sidetables or pedestals. I guess this makes it unportable... Once you set it up, it's staying there. Pondering upon the preamplifier I shall install for in -powered wireless speakers
with input ports for stereo in,rca, usb, hdmi, ipod dock, (however like the iphone 5 I would Presume later it would be bluetooth perhaps wireless power as well... ) I guess I'll take a traditional old school approach that wont be affected too much with changing technology.
Now if someone would please combine karaoke with a taser microphone for mein neighbor that detects when one sings out of tune and activates. Harhar! hmmM.... Not such a bad idea.. :D

Gotta groove this antique salvaged from the lost bodega of Herr A. Roensch that was recently accessed. solid narra, the lower half was damaged beyond restoration, having suffered shrapnel, fire and subsequently water damage sustained at the arkanas malate home That was totally destroyed during the bombing of manila by american forces during world war ll.
