Haha, nice work!


Hehehehe, I like this one, nice puzzle and excellent answer to it :)


hah, beautiful


I prefer less math and more practical things too :) I was thinking if anyone build it and how large and then you showed it, pretty nice :)

The measurement is close enough, you don’t need like 5 digits for most things anyway


Cubes and hypercubes next please. :)


Nice work,
plus more than 50 “you know”s in this video
:)


AHahahha!


I wonder what would happen if you connected the opposite sides of the grid. Maybe it would simulate the real infinite grid :-)


Really good work mate.
nice to see some fellow aussies getting themselves out there. love hearing measurements in millimeters and grams saves having to try and guess the values the yanks are talking about all the time.
What company are you working at currently?


Good video. What about making it in to a cube?


Wow Dave you got almost 5000 views for this video alone, lol I wonder why?


It made it onto the Hack-A-Day website, so a huge influx of new viewers and subscribers!


Seeing you love measuring stuff, how about applying a voltage (say 10.000V) to the central resistor, and then measuring the voltage at various locations around the grid.


I can’t believe you actually build that circuit. Sounds a bit stupid to build one but you are right. No point to do the paper work if I didn’t compare it with the real world.
As always nice one.


now,connect the opposing sides like a MOEBIUS band,please


This video is absolutely brilliant and hillarious at the same time.


OMG!! I want to make an infinite resistor rug now. sweet video. you seem like a very productive guy…unlike me…


This is fantastic!


What did he exactly say after .5 an ohm? @1:15
did he say “not .5 *R “


He said “naught”, as in zero.


Thanks much :)
