Make Flickr photo pool member mattadata writes “This is the hack I performed to get my alarm clock inside of my lamp for a clean night-stand appearance“. Now mattadata can just glance over to see the clock, control it- all without anyone seeing an unsightly clock. Neat project, expect to see this in your local MegaMart in 3, 2, 1… Link.

Is there anything LEGOs can’t do? The idea of building a working Rubik Cube has always appealed. Here the challenge is to create a mechanical device that has a number of degrees of freedom about a central point. It’s not easy! The cube consists of 12 edge pieces, 8 corner pieces and one central piece. All of these have to be interlocking, yet still be able to rotate about any axis at any time in any direction. Link.

Part one was the Weatherproof Wi-Fi camera rig– and now Mavromatic has posted their DIY: Outdoor wireless access point/signal repeater to get the signal to and from the Wireless camera. This how-to has a ton of great information if you ever wanted to get a signal across a large distance. “This project was installed about a year and a half ago and has been functioning since. There have been times I needed to reboot the repeater throughout the year, so it’s not like you can install it forget about it (unless you buy commercial products, not a Linksys). You also have to keep an eye out for growing shrubs and trees, since that will limit your signal over time“. Link.
