For anyone who doesn't know, turn subtitles on for annotations.

Excellent advice for newcomers!

I watched this and I felt something like a mix of stimulation and serenity. A calling from something deep. Computer programming’s fine but a part of me now wishes to be a sticks and mud engineer. Even if in both cases apparently some clever designs don’t pan out.

Pity the Volute design didn’t work out as well as the normal blower, but the journey to get to that result was worthwhile as always! John Plant never disappoints lol got his hardcover so I can take more time perusing his guides
