Cool
How much weight can the Herzan carry?

Self noise generated by the action of playing a record.
What do we do with this energy?

It’s customary to describe six degrees of motion as follows,

The y axis (vertical direction), z axis (first horizontal direction), x axis (second horizontal direction), plus three rotational directions, rock, roll and twist, around the x, z and y axes, respectively. (There is actually an infinite number of directions in the horizontal plane.) Let’s twist again like we did last summer! 🕺🏻 Think of seismic type forces moving the component like a wave passing under a boat out on the ocean.

Geoff, Enough already with the seismic forces. Have you figured out that no one is listening?

Hey, lewm - Blow it out your bagpipes, dude! See if anyone listens to that.
