OT; how do you mill plutonium?

Jul 10, 2006 11 Replies

Opportunity knocked on my door last week when one of those trucks carrying a big pot of some sort rolled over. No none got hurt so I went rummaging through the debris before the cops got there,



I found lots of really good shop rags , some almost new hand tools, an old Simpson meter but the needle was bent, a spiffy aluminum suit, and some stuff that looks like 1/2" drill rod, cept it's black and warm to the touch.



I dragged it into the shop and then sat down to watch TV ... Man was I surprised to see what that truck was carrying. Plutonium, you know the stuff they make the Mickey and Pluto watches from. Right then and there I knew I had something valuable.



I tried to cut it and nothing works



any suggestions?


Maybe you want to take your Iodine pills before you get near it again... A space suit and a decontamination shower might not hurt either.

You the 3rd guy this week that told me I need a shower ....

send it to Cliff, he'll bore right thru it

Are you telling me that Bull s*it will keep my tools from breaking?

use the correct tool for the job

Go far, far out into the country and then cast four 3-kilogram pieces that together make a sphere. Then bring them together.

May I suggest the country of North Korea. Thank You, Randy

Or you could try Iraq. I understand they are still looking for Nookyouler weapons over there. On the other hand, I understand the plutonium dust is a good remedy for asbestos exposure.

One cold Saturday morning I was driving to the store that sells furnace parts. I had the old burner unit with me to compare to the new one. At one point I had to do a U-turn, and when I turned into the sun, there were pretty snow-flaky-looking things floating all around the inside of my truck. "What the...?"

"oh sheeit"

the asbestos gasket was being evenly distributed around the inside of the truck cab by the heater blower.

Wow! Neat score! Place it in a drum of water, make some adjustment screws to regulate how close the rods get to each other, construct a water/water heat exchanger and circulate clean side water through your home in winter.

Oh, stop at tire stores and get as many wheel weights as you can, shielding hot side that faces you might be a good idea. If you don't like your neighboor, leave that side open.
