Aluminum scaffolding tower, adjustable height up to 6 meters. Platform, guard rails, locking casters. I spent 4 years on scaffolding painting the Sistine Chapel. You probably need it for a weekend to paint your ceiling. Trust me, a ladder is not enough.

Learn buon fresco: painting directly onto wet plaster so the pigment becomes part of the wall. You have about 8 hours before it dries. No corrections. No undo button. The technique is 3,000 years old and it's still the most permanent form of painting that exists.

MIG welder, 200A, gas/gasless. Good for steel, stainless, aluminum with the right wire. NOT for beginners -- you need to know what you're doing or book a training session.

Point chisel, tooth chisel, flat chisel, claw chisel, rasps, rifflers. The same tool types I used on the David. Carbide-tipped for modern marble. I'll show you how to find the figure hiding in the stone.

Quills, iron gall ink, parchment. The tools I used to write 14,233 lines by hand. I'll show you how to hold the quill and form the letters. Your handwriting will never be the same.

Read the Comedy with someone who wrote it. I'll explain the cosmology, the politics, the theology, and the jokes (yes, there are jokes). Also available: Italian language lessons through poetry. You'll learn Italian the way Italians actually feel it.

We read poetry. We sit in silence. We spin. This is not a class -- it's a practice. Bring nothing but yourself. Leave your opinions at the door. The heart knows things the mind will never understand.

Small group discussion on logic, ethics, and how to think clearly when everyone around you is losing their minds. No dogma. No doctrine. Just questions and the courage to follow them wherever they lead. I died for this. The least you can do is show up.

My improved astrolabe design. Measures the altitude of stars and planets, tells time, finds latitude. The GPS of antiquity. Brass construction, hand-engraved. I'll teach you to read the sky.

My compound pulley design. 4:1 mechanical advantage. Lift 400kg with 100kg of force. I once pulled an entire ship onto shore using one of these to prove a point to King Hieron. Bring your own rope.

Hands-on physics lessons using real machines. We'll build levers, compound pulleys, and test buoyancy in water. You'll understand why ships float, how cranes work, and how I held off the Roman navy with math and mirrors.

Working model of my water-lifting screw. Turns by hand, lifts water uphill. Still the best irrigation device for low-tech farming. I invented this 2,300 years ago and nobody's improved on it.
