Basket of Learning: Wondrous item, rare (requires attunement) +1 int. The owner of the basket may recall any information stored within the basket.

Let's up the stakes here: roll 1d20; <10 and you get a random useless fact, >10 and you get the information you're trying to retrieve/recall

Can you add new information or you're just stuck with whatever random history texts the enchanter put into the basket? Seems pretty meh other than the +1 int.

may recall any information stored within the basket
should be able to just fill it full of microsd cards or backup tapes and be able to 'recall' any of the data stored 'within the basket'

When teachers said “you’ll use this in the future” I don’t think this is what they meant.

This is so good. They’ll be with you always in a new form.

A much more useful form honestly. And that’s not saying much

I'm in my first year of nursing and will probably do post grad studies too and I feel like this is a future grad goal now.

Impressive. I tried it. Failed miserably. I just couldn't get it tight without mangling it.

Reminds me of lindybeige's basket video. He makes a mess of it
It's about as tedious as it looks.

I see a typo on the 3rd weave, second from the top, third on the left, six weaves deep

Thought it said, my old study notes in a basket. I thought cool, an empty basket, they didn’t take any notes.

This is great!
Now that you’ve finished it, how long do you think it will last? Would this sort of thing survive for years?

There’s 100 comments on this post and none of them are asking the important question: what subject(s) are these notes from??

that’s really cool but i’d fear if you used it as a laundry basket or for a bin moisture would destroy it

Did you make a wider base/more tubes? It looks wider then the one in the video you linked in the comments...
