Alchemy - The transmutation of base metals into gold.
My alchemy is to transform a metal (aluminum) into gold (money).
These are the motorcycle carburetor parts I made from a length of 1/2" aluminum rod.

It's magic!

Great work you did there. I'm very impressed that you can do this. I could barely take a carburetor apart and put it back together back in my motorcycle days.
