Making keys after the apocalypse

Making keys is an amazing art with a lot of skill and technique involved. For those of you living in a post-apocalyptic world, [Dan] has a much simpler solution to the problems of having one too few keys for your locks and deadbolts – just cast them out of scrap with the power of the sun.


To make the mold of the key, [Dan] is using a two-piece plaster of paris mold. First, a thick layer of plaster is laid down in a small container and the key floated on the surface. After drying, sprues are put in with clay and the key embedded in a curing plaster block. After a few hours, a proper mold is created ready to receive molten metal.


The casting material is zinc – not as hard as the original steel key, but more than strong enough to turn a lock. This zinc is melted in a steel and plaster crucible with a gigantic fresnel lens.


As for the utility of this method of copying keys after the apocalypse, we’ll have to wonder how practical this method is. A giant fresnel lens isn’t just something you randomly find unless you’re going house to house looking for projection TVs, and finding a can of mold release after the end of the world is beyond credulity. That said, it’s a cool demonstration of metal casting that can be easily accomplished at home or at any hackerspace.

The Shameful Future Of Our Children...

A Most Dangerous Lie

Last week President Barack Obama asserted that the United States does not face spending or deficit problems, only an ideological divide caused by Republicans that want to slash government programs for health and children's services.

“We don’t have an urgent deficit crisis,” Obama said Friday at a town hall meeting on the campus of Binghamton University in Binghamton, N.Y. “The only crisis we have is the one that is manufactured in Washington and it’s ideological and the basic notion is that we shouldn’t be helping people get health care and we shouldn’t be helping kids who can’t help themselves and whose parents are under resourced, we shouldn’t be helping them get a leg up.”
Now either this president is lying or he has yet to read his own government's reports.


• The Government Accountability Officesaid earlier this year that "...absent policy changes...the federal government continues to face an unsustainable fiscal path."

• The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office warns that we have less than a decade to rectify the federal spending addiciton: "[a] growing imbalance between revenues and noninterest spending, combined with the spiraling cost of net interest, would swiftly push debt upward in an unsustainable way... The explosive path of federal debt ... underscores the need for major changes in current policies to put the nation on a sustainable fiscal course..."

• The public trustees of Medicare and Social Security continue to sound the alarm that the massive entitlement programs are headed for collapse: "Under current law, both of these vitally important programs are on unsustainable paths."

• Furthermore, government economists in the several states warn that the federal debt "circumstances are dire enough after four consecutive years of trillion-dollar deficits that politicians on each side of the aisle are beginning to realize serious budget repairs are necessary."
