Minecraft "Perhaps the biggest stroke of genius in Minecraft". [67] This red mineral serves as in-game wiring, letting players lay down logic circuitry that controls pistons, minecarts and other dynamic elements in the game. [67] It is found as ore in deep caves.
Blast dampers usually employ some type of blade held open with tension from a spring. The damper blades close automatically when pressure overcomes the resistance offered by the spring. Various models differ in the amount of blast protection (e.g. 1 bar/14.5 psi or lower amounts of protection) and whether they stay closed after the blast or ...
Samples of "ground granulated blast furnace slag" (left) and "granulated blast furnace slag" (right) Ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS or GGBFS) is obtained by quenching molten iron slag (a by-product of iron and steel-making) from a blast furnace in water or steam, to produce a glassy, granular product that is then dried and ground into a fine powder.
Blast walls perform best if the explosion is relatively close to the front of the wall [1] "Canopied" walls (with a top section overhanging the front face) show some improved blast protection over plane walls; A 90-degree canopy is more effective than a 45-degree one [2] Walls containing sand or water work well, and cause little damage if they fail
various hammerstones An example of a cobble used as a hammerstone. In archaeology, a hammerstone is a hard cobble [1] used to strike off lithic flakes from a lump of tool stone during the process of lithic reduction. [2]
This is a list of cobblestone buildings, mostly houses and mostly but not all in the United States, that are notable and that reflect cobblestone architecture. Cobblestone architecture had some popularity for substantial homes and other buildings for a period, but is limited in scope of employment. St. Alban's Church, Copenhagen

A blasting machine or shot exploder (commonly called a plunger) is a portable source of electric current to reliably fire a blasting cap to trigger a main explosive charge.
