Inside a vintage canned earthquake
Added 2024-03-06 00:59:39 +0000 UTCThis canned earthquake originally came from a UK chain called The Gadget Shop, and is old enough to contain what appears to be a proper mercury tilt switch.

Very tempted to replicate this to give to a friend as a birthday present. It's the kind of daft thing he would like.
