HOW TO make metal charms
This page describes how custom made metal charms can be created with just plaster, a polymer clay original, and solder. This might be a cool way to make cell phone trinkets too. Thanks Kit! Link.
This guide is to show you how to rewire the DSL circuit from the phone Company’s NID to your modem and hopefully you’ll gain about 100 to 150kbps in speed, lower Latency and even get rid of all the Filters that are attached to your phones. [
Here is my Waffle Iron PC. I used an EPIA M10000 Mini-ITX board. It has 512MB RAM and a 160GB hard drive. I used an external USB CDROM to install the OS. It runs Linux – Fedora Core 2. It’s also got a TV Out card, so I can use this for a MythTV box if I choose later. [
HOW TO make Hands-Free Shooting Rig
This is awesome. Here’s how to build a rig using an iSight, Bluetooth headset, a backpack, and a dash of AppleScript that enables you to capture images on the go by simply speaking, “take shot.” Romain Guy shows you how to build it. Link.
HOW TO read mailing lists as RSS feeds (more suggestions…)
Andrew writes “I saw your post on using Blogger to post emails from a mailing list and grabbing the RSS from that. Anyone who uses Bloglines already has this functionality built-in to their Bloglines account. There is an unobtrusive link down at the bottom (Create Email Subscription) that spits out a disposable email address (username.#######@bloglines.com) that can be used to sign up to mailing lists with. I have a few in my account and find them quite handy, but the feature is usually listed in with all the others, and I could see how it could get missed”. Thanks! Link.
