Alexander SchmitzJournal Entry 43: September 2: "So, my first day of seventh grade. The best part isn't just that, but that I'm actually going to the United States! Parents taught me enough English to get by. What will the other kids be like? I can't wait to get to school! Dad wanted me to get along well with Hispanics, so he sent me to a West Coast place called,'COUSD.'Sounds weird already, but then he told me that the place I am going to is a school called "Royal Oak". From their "mascot," I would assume that they are major speed freaks. Oh, it's time already? Well, I think I'll write again when I get back."

Small PressureI am under serious pressure
going from day to day.
How much I can take until I derp
I'm still not entirely sure.

Algebra two is hard today,
and English will be next
I try to hold my stress at bay,
but how much can I take?

Parents say I must improve
no matter what the cost;
I have not any time to glue
or tape, I must go on.

"Maybe I'll get to writing another poem,
it could not possibly hurt,"
That's what I thought as I went for the den
to put my pencil to paper.

The Subject of Suicide(narration tip: bold words are made by the Devil himself.)

If you die of your own hands,
You go far downstairs to your crazy friend.
He will drive through you a massive lance,
And place for you a massive wall.

Oh, if you ever work for me, young sir:
You'll never see the light of day again!
You'll never take a single break,
You will always work for me!

You demented, crazy fool!
Do you really think this will fix you right?
No, it can only hurt you,
Gives a one-way pass to your torturer!

Oh, if you ever come to me, young sir:
You'll never see the light of day again!
You'll never get back to your frien

PT EK-12by ~aaapi

Traditional Art / Drawings / Technical Drawings

Seeing as I have a few hours of spare time to work with, I have decided to go ahead and cut a few hours out of gaming, relocating them instead to retrying PMG and literature. While I get ideas, however, have a weapon drawing.

This is the PiTech Electric Knife Model 12. It is a six-inch combat "Hybrid Construction" knife, Hybrid meaning that the blade is actually made of separate parts that are then snapped together. The black part is made of painted stainless steel, the part across from it made of ceramic (a successful experiment, courtesy of Specter Industries,) the serrated back end of steel, and the blade is available in D2 steel or diamond-reinforced D2.

The specialty of this knife however, is in the two wires running the length of the blade and the two electrodes on either side. When an enemy is stabbed with the EK-12, their internal fluids complete a circuit around the knife, creating a 200 kilowatt shock. As it is, the shock can only be used once before the AA battery inside must be reloaded. Don't worry, the battery lid (which denotes that the EK-12 is made by PiTech Black Frame) will flip open automatically and close itself when a new battery is loaded. The old battery will have been fried beyond its ability to discharge, and thus will have no further use.

The PiTech Green modification is also available, which replaces the in-grip battery holder with a small nuclear reactor that operates on slugs sold via BM. One slug is good for up to five shocks of 400-600 kilowatts.

Sorry I shouldn't have said bronze,I should have said steel because It's lighter and stronger

~Epicsunrise Jul 1, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Every thing is sound except for the blade,it would be an utter failure under stress and longevity with all those different metals being separate parts and most of them wouldn't be made into a knife blade at all.The aluminum even being air craft grade would never be used in knife blade construction because aluminum will never be strong enough.Iron hasnt been used in blade construction since before Rome and it was replaced with bronze so that should say something for how shitty iron is for blades. Native Americana used obsidian for their arrow heads because they didn't have metal and it was brittle,a rock could never be strong enough except for ceramic.Really the only materials that would work in your construction is the steel or D2 tool steel.I'm sorry for being so critical about it but I just want you to know if it would actually work.I love how it looks and would love to see the design in real life but it would just fall apart if you used it like a knife.

~aaapi Jul 1, 2012

I used aluminum because it was the first non-conductive metal I thought of. (The wires running the length of the blade are bare and allowing current to bypass the electrodes would cause the knife to short-circuit.)
Iron isn't for the body of the blade, just the serrated back end.

Diamond pressed together should work (it is the hardest material known, after all) but it would be VERY expensive.

Oh, and iron (I think) is used in blades today (if stainless steel contains iron).

Don't worry about the being critical, I prolly would have done it myself.

I'm editing the desc slightly, to fix some of the errors I can't retort.

~Epicsunrise Jul 1, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Steel has to do with the amount of carbon and Iron is a very very small part of it's makeup if at all so no blades are made of solid iron.Diamond is strong but one of the most important things in a blade isn't just hardness,it has to be able to deform with out chipping.A katana's edge is harder than the interior but the edge can also chip on bone.Diamond would chip very fast if the blade is flexed at all.The aluminum would work as an insulator but never used as a structural aid

~aaapi Jul 1, 2012

Oh.. pfff Why are we even arguing about diamonds? I remember now that by "diamond-lined" I just meant that the blade-side of the D2 piece was coated with industrial diamond.

Perhaps if the aluminum had a steel mesh running through the middle of it, it could work better.

~Epicsunrise Jul 2, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Oh ok,the industrial diamond dust makes more sense.The easiest way I can think of for an electric knife would be to make it two pronged where the blades are separated.

~aaapi Jul 2, 2012

or have two wires running on either side of the blade and not let electricity flow between them (my approach)

~Epicsunrise Jul 2, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

I would use a thin ceramic in that case.

~aaapi Jul 2, 2012

Well, that could go in the Specter Modification :L

After all, Specter be one step above PT, parent company and all.

(I'll include it and credit you.)
