Donkeys may prefer carrots?
You only need a little piece of Galena and sometimes you need a fresh surface. I've wondered how hard it would be to make a reasonable functional replica of the holder and the whisker adjustment. All the other bits are trivial. Glass spice jars better than empty loo-roll card tubes for Q as the card gets damp. The best Philips Superinductance coils used glass coil formers. An old cutlery box would make the bases for two crystal sets. The thing is to have the fun making and realise you don't need a 3D printer. I've wondered how easy it is to make a jig for a glass cutter and cut the glass "straws" now being sold. They, the bamboo and the stainless steel ones are a hazard to life if you trip and fall on your drink. Maybe paper is a better idea to replace plastic straws, or simply no straw. We only ever used them in school for the small milk bottles. One teacher thought it a good idea to put the milk crate on the radiator. The similar size Suki orange glass bottles used up paper straws too. They seemed to vanish when I was still in shorts for school.
