This is a really great way to make rage bait ahead of prime day and get into the news. It’s like free advertising.

If he puts it in a certain spot in a certain room, it tells him where the ark of the covenant is.

Need a window in the bedroom for a fire escape, but the the rest looks solid!

That design is known as “Ball and Claw”. It likely originated in the east with some symbolism, but when it went west, craftsman thought it looked cool and started copying it with minor changes.

Yeah the Russians are a little meaner, but do better with the mites and winter. The Italians are much easier to work, but require a lot more “hand holding”. Either way I normally knock with some smoke at the entrance/through the screened bottom for 2-3 puffs, then when I crack the top or move off a super, add a puff at the location. If I’m working slow and see them start staring me down, they get a little more.

I work bare handed because gloves loose too much dexterity, but that also gives them a giant target.
