Magna-Light

I made this because my workbench is always too dark. The entire thing is not much bigger than the nine volt battery that powers it. Despite its size, it is really bright.

Mini Drunken Robot

This is my new robot. It is made out of the vibrating motor from a cell phone and a battery. As you see in the second video, the entire thing is the size of a quarter. I call it a drunken robot because it goes in random directions. You can never tell where it is going.

Collapsible Trebuchet


This is my collapsible trebuchet. Traditional trebutchets are powered by weights, but mine is powered by humans. It can launch a screw almost 30 feet.

Shrunken Apple Head

This is my shrunken apple head I made for Halloween. We don't decorate a lot for Halloween, so I decided to take matters into my own hands. It is only an apple with some lemon soaked into it and let to dry.

Ladder Golf



This is my ladder golf set I made. You play by throwing the golf ball bolos across the playing area to wrap it around the ladder. Three points for top rung, two for second, one first first.
