圖片
 An British company "StandardToilet" invented this slanted toilet at 2019 December. This design wouldn't allow people to stay on the toilet for too long since you will get tired very quickly. It claims to benefit human's health and to help with the condition of hemorrhoids and pelvic muscles. Basically if you don't strains your quad muscles, you're gonna slide down. It is quite an interesting design and companies may want them as soon as possible since the company said the main benefits is to improve employee working productivity! 😂 The company also claim that the toilet could potentially resolve the problem regarding to the long queue in most transportation's restroom where they're usually crowded. But why 13? Where did this magic number comes from?  Well......okeeey, awkward as I have to say, I couldn't find any article talking about why it's 13 degree tilted.

Then we will use the wire saw to cut out a circle around the dent. Then the cup holder is complete! Put oil all over the wood so it's shinni...
