Ones I left out: Student clubs (with discretion), discussions with your peers, free access to the gym, free personal trainers, free martial arts classes, free fencing clubs, free access to the pool, cheaper prices on software, reduced rates for public transit, student rates at museums and elsewhere, etc ad nauseam.
Basically, the resources available are staggering. So go forth and be awesome.

COPPI
coppiced-willow-withies-endless-supply
Yes, those are all real words. Coppicing is an ancient technique for harvesting dowel shaped wood from the same tree year after year. Withies are the result when coppicing willow. And wattle work is a type of fencing made from withies woven around supports (best known from wattle and daub).
Filmed at the Open Lucht Museum near Arnhem in the Netherlands

LUCK
luck-and-skill-the-good-and-basic
We return to the podcast to explore the connection between three videos we made: playing the Royal Game of Ur, visiting Rob's 3d printing lab, and Chesterton's Fence. Amazingly, there is a connection--all three have to do with how to approach the problem of incomplete information.

SMELT
smelting-iron-with-cody-slab
At last! The weather opened up just enough to smelt the Bog Ore from our hike with Cody's Lab, using (relatively) primitive methods. We did end up using an electric fan after the first hour and a half with the bellows, but, then, we don't have an army of apprentices. ;-)

THE T
the-tao-of-trash
We go treasure hunting in a massive trash heap at a construction site! Everything is useful in its own way--except maybe the old, desiccated cardboard. We explain why we're digging around in a garbage pile, and how to approach it for good results. We also muse about the Tao, the industrial revolution, and cookie pans.
