    This amazes me to no end. My high school which I attended more than 5 years ago banned the use of chalk boards in the classrooms that still had them because apparently chalk dust can be irritating to some people. My university only has white boards and screen projectors. I didn't even know chalk was still cherished in some parts of the academic world. It makes me wonder just how amazing this chalk must feel to write with. It sounds like the equivalent to a smooth art tablet but physically drawing on it.

    • @cbalan777
      @cbalan777 ปีที่แล้ว +192

      You can see the quality of it in the video. The one guy says "It's the densest" which translates to a more opaque line, and yet he also says "It erases the cleanest" meaning it doesn't have the disadvantage of smearing all over the place, at least not as badly as others might. The formula for the chalk is probably a higher ratio of gypsum to binder, and the binder is probably not the standard type used in chalk.

      The way how you push the chalk through the board makes you more remember the formula. Why? Because you can't write fast with chalk and need to remember longer what you gonna write next.
      Think it as memory training to your brain. Same method when people do a fast reading but they can't capture every detail which is important to math formula.

No chalk dust flying around while writing, no white strains on the fingers and thumb, smooth, little pressure high precision trace. It felt like, I was painting the canvas with a brush. I realised that day, while other classes have projectors and whiteboards why this class stuck to the conventional ways!

He opened the company because he wanted to import Hagoromo to Korea and show it to Korean people. When he heard that Hagoromo was going to shut down, he bought all the machines, formulas and re-hired all employees, and just brought them to Korea.

      @pendlera2959 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@mr.mercury4247I don't think money applies as well. The point of saved money is to serve as a buffer if your income stream is interrupted or to make proportionately larger purchases. For instance, it's much cheaper to save up for and buy a house or car than it is to pay interest on it for several years.
      However, with chalk or art supplies, their value does not increase with time. If you don't use your good chalk, you have to use cheap chalk, which is the same result as running out of good chalk, except you risk dying before you get to use the good stuff. With art supplies, if you don't use them, you don't improve. Waiting until you're a better artist before you use your art supplies is pointless because you can't improve without using your art supplies. And a blank sketchbook is no better than a sketchbook filled with crappy drawings.

The students all look in amazement as their teacher walks over, starts yelling at him about being early and palms him a $20. The shady dude reaches into the pocket of his hoody and pulls out a box of chalk, calmly hands it over to the clearly anxious teacher and pauses "Don't fucking speak to me like that again or I'm cutting you off"
      The teachers eyes widen in fear as he looks from the dealers eyes to the box of 72 pristine pieces of white chalk in his hand, he quickly stammers out an apology and rushes back over to his desk to hide his precious behind lock and key. The shady dude calmly walks out and the teacher only has the time to say "You saw nothing" to his students before the bell rings and they all file out, chattering to each other about what just went down.

I am an engineering student now and I always try to listen out for something similar to this chalk in the engineering world. I have yet to here of any cult followings such as this, but there are some ones the are close. Favorite calculators, favorite brand of pens, pencils, or white board markers. Here in Canada maybe the closest is the fascination with the iron rings, but I don't even know if that would be comparable. Has anyone else heard anything from the engineering world?
