Not to be pedantic, but a granite boat can and will float if constructed properly. Remember your basic buoyancy, kids. If the boat is mostly hollow it will displace a greater volume than its granite material occupies. Thusly, it will float.

As for musical instruments made of stone, an ocarina can be carefully carved from stone and will sound just fine. Though different stone types will produce slightly different resonance and 'flavor' for the sound.

This is an orthoclase piccolo.  All craftsdwarfship is stupid because your instrument is made of stone!

That being said, I'd heard about a musician who played a crazy instrument, which sounded like some form of synthesizer or electric guitar, but in actuality, his guitar was acoustic and made from petrified wood.

As much as I loathe artifact toys, I do chuckle when they're covered with seven different kinds of menacing spikes.

Something you might type in a German language class if you were stupid and playing some kind of text tag, I guess.

You win for the Hellraiser reference.


Of course knowing DF this probably isn't too far from reality...

I was looking for the thumbs up option for that comment.
