Interesting watch from Adam.

" a classic physical example of a non-orientable surface "

Cliff Stoll sells a wide variety of Klein bottles and related things at https://www.kleinbottle.com/

I ordered from him in the past and the experience is in keeping with Cliff Stoll's quirky persona.

Adam Savage's video prompted a "flood" of orders:

2021-Nov-2 -- Adam Savage!  Yikes ... thank you!  A tsunami of Klein bottle orders has arrived - more than two dozen!  I'm working hard to fill these, but I'm way behind.  Worse, I will be out of town on Wednesday & Thursday (Nov 3 and 4).  Please realize that I do everything -- yep, I'm the only one here; this week I'm a full time packing & shipping clerk!

As of 4PM Pacific time on Tuesday Nov 2nd, I'm all caught up -- I've sent out all Klein bottle orders.  So I will now head over to the post office (aagain!) and then pack for my 2-day trip.  I'll return on Thursday evening; any orders that arrive while I'm gone -- I expect to send them out on Friday and, perhaps Saturday.

SO:  While I'm away (Wed & Thurs), you can order from this website and I'll do my best to send your Klein bottle to you when I return - likely Friday or Saturday. (I have closed my Amazon listing while I'm away. In general, orders through amazon are more difficult for me).

Many thanks for your understanding and patience!  -Cliff  (around 4PM on Tuesday Nov 2nd in Oakland, Califonrina)
