The DIY Velomobile Project

The DIY Velomobile Project

VeloDave writes “Steve runs a kayak-building company but his spare-time project is designing a velomobile, that is, a human-powered, closed vehicle; technically a recumbent trike with a full body. There are a few commercial velomobile products in Europe, see links at the top of Steve’s page. His current design is just gorgeous (be sure to look at all the pictures) and makes clever, sophisticated use of hi-tech materials, and is very close to commercially practical.” Link.

Kodaktoflicksm-2Tim used our how to on using the Kodak Wi-Fi camera with Flickr and writes in “Thanks for your help. I followed the instruction on your post on the MAKE blog, but was having trouble getting the Automator application I created to work. When I tried it as a stand alone Automator application, it would not work. When I ran it from within Automator it worked. I noticed that software update was telling me about some new updates. I ran them and then restarted and now it works fine. Don’t know if it was the updates or just restarting, but now it works well. Thank you for your help with this.” Link.

The Great Downwinder…

ImagesMake is a sponsor of the Great Downwinder…“The Great Downwinder is an epic kitesurfing roadtrip which will take place every year. The aim is to celebrate the diverse range of people who are drawn together by their common passion for kitesurfing and desire for adventure. It will involve a number of riders, from all over the world, undertaking a long downwind adventure.” Link. MAKE pals Saul and Corwin and Tim Anderson are all riding and will have some Make-friendly videos (fixing kites, etc) soon. Thanks Arwen!
