For those of you with space in your yard, here's an amazing project.
Part of it, the slow repetitive actions, reminds me of skilling-up tradeskills!  Now there's an outlet for us in real life!

That's very cool!  I never had any problem accepting the idea of thousands of slaves constructing the pyramids in ancient Egypt as they're portrayed in those '50s Hollywood movies.  But the idea of thousands of Druids (or anyone else in Britain) moving those blocks all that way never made any sense.
