This Week in Making: Water Bikes, Paper Chess, and Flying Cars

This past week we contemplated riding our bikes on water, marveled at a paper quilled chess set, and got amped thinking about flying cars.

Woodworking and electronics, automatons and camera sliders. Ben Brandt’s YouTube channel offers lots of cool projects.

John Park replaces the fixed audio chip on his Chewie mask with a programmable one. Hilarity ensues.

There’s lots to look forward to at this weekend’s Maker Faire Detroit… even if you can’t make it out to Detroit.

Utilizing an array of ingenious techniques, Graham Dunning masterfully creates entire musical compositions on a single revolving turntable.

Neil McKinlay made this small – but quite fancy – cabinet as a proof of concept for a bigger piece he was planning on making.

This gorgeous chess set and board are almost entirely quilled paper.
