This Week in Making: ChickTech Meetup, Dark Souls Props, and Robotic Arms

This Week in Making saw the reveal of the Two Bit Circus Foundation, hand-made Dark Souls rings, some new crowd funding campaigns, and more.

Running wire under walkways, ordering parts on eBay, and some cool woodworking jigs.

Electric circular saws are small, electric versions of lumber mill saws. They can go where the work is, instead of the other way around.

Make a quick, easy, and effective mousetrap out of common items and PVC piping.

Taking inspiration from Brian Bunnell’s design, Samer Najia adds tank treads to a Go-Kart to fulfill his childhood dream of driving a tank.

Make a shuriken throwing star which doubles as a fidget spinner (for all of those tedious ninja stakeouts).

This week, we saw makers shoot nerf darts at the speed of sound, transform the Nintendo Switch into the Nintendo 64, and so much more.
