Quick test of a tiny QEV cannon firing air at 12atm, viewed through a Schlieren setup (no razor blade). 1/8th speed (15fps) and improved video performance because somehow Youtube cropped the last frames of the other videos (?) I didn't quite understood the need for a razor blade but without one I still see the flow of air. For me, the razor blade just makes the dot of light smaller(?) If anyone can clarify me what the razor blade really does and where it should be placed (in the source of light or in the camera) I'd really appreciate. Also important to note that this is AWESOME to look with the naked eye but almost the dimmest light can blind you. I covered a tiny LED torch with aluminum foil and punctured a hole with a sewing needle, on the side! so that the LED doesn't bright directly through the hole. Take care with the eyes!!

We are starting the work on shaping our rudders. The foam has been glued together to the right thickness and now we need to shape them.

I really wanted to love this Bajang (also known as Zongzi). It’s a masterpiece of culinary engineering: sticky rice, savory fillings, and that iconic pyramidal shape, all bound by the ancient technology of the banana leaf. This dish dates back over 2,000 years to the Zhou Dynasty. Legend says it was born as a ritual offering to honor the poet Qu Yuan, thrown into rivers to prevent fish from eating his body. It’s a symbol of loyalty and survival, a portable meal designed for ancient travelers and warriors. As a researcher, I admire the craft. The leaf infuses the rice with polyphenols and a distinct grassy aroma, a perfect example of indigenous cuisine using nature as a pressure cooker. But strictly from a taste perspective? It didn’t click for me today. The flavor profile is complex, dense, and deeply traditional, but sometimes food heritage challenges our modern palates. And that’s okay. My mission isn’t to find "tasty" food, it’s to preserve the taste of history. Is this a masterpiece or just an acquired taste? Have you tried Bajang? Let’s talk in the comments. 👇 Culinary anthropologist tasting traditional Bajang (Zongzi) wrapped in banana leaves at Yaowarat, Bangkok’s Chinatown street food market.

While hanging out at anchor over on Hans Lollick we met the ThuderCat VI crew. What an awesome group of people. We hung out for an hour or so, and then they took my wife for a quick sea trial.
