Re: Impossible

Re: Impossible

Normal loaded round, even if just the bullet had mass, it is too topheavy to stay.

Not on a mirror, you would not see the bottom of the round.

I would not dent, glue, tape or otherwise modify my nice wood desk surface.

Remember, a Jedi's strength flows from the Force. But beware. Anger, fear, aggression. The dark side are they. Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny.

Regular full metal jacket round nose.
 
Re: Impossible

Since there was no response to the Photoshop comment, I'll take another guess.

Superglue the backside of the round to the end of something like a steel gauge block or even another small pistol round. A 32 ACP would be fine.

Neither would show up in the picture and it can "stand" there all day long.

No PS, no other round, no glue, no steel.

yes</div></div>

Unless I own some kind of industrial vacuum pump, there is no way to generate that kind of suction without seeing it in the picture or sucking up the round entirely.

That is a woodgrain bench. Do it on a flat surface, like a kitchen counter, a desk, marble floor..
