Oh the things that show up on our porch…

This little frog seems to have it figured out that flies like our screen/glass door because light comes through. He has been back for the past couple of nights too. Oh, and that is a fly hanging out of his mouth.

This is my first attempt at making a stop motion video. In it I make an origami gnasher.

Your Very Own Personal Hovercraft!

I saw the hovercrafts Jamie and Adam made on Mythbusters, and decided that that would be one of the coolest things I would make so far. So we went to Rockville (the local junk shop) and found a 4X8 piece of wooden panneling for $3. I had everything else. So this entire hovercraft project cost me only $3. The other parts are kind of thick plastic sheets, a leaf blower, staples, a random bolt or two, and lots of duct tape. It works pretty darn well. You can see the videos here.

The Amazing Floating Bookshelf!

With about an hour of work, some sweat, and a pile of drywall dust on my bed and nightstand, the amazing floating bookshelf was born!

P.S I got a camera!! Before I was taking pictures with my phone.

Smoke Dissipater

I made this to suck up all the smoke made from my soldering iron. It works well and sucks all the smoke up as you can see in the video.
