Homemade Donnie Darko Frank The Bunny Halloween Costume
Excellent costume on eBay – The costume includes the Mask, the suit, and gloves. The mask is made of high quality professional mask latex (the kind they use in big budget horror films) and it comes straight from an original mold that I created. What that means is you will not find this particular mask anywhere else but here. The gloves and suit are made of alpine fleece and faux fur. Link.
100lb working Gameboy project
Nice project via Kotaku It’s over 3 feet tall and weighs 100 pounds with a working cartridge. Guess this Game Boy isn’t exactly portable. No wonder they call it the “Game Man.” Designed by an art student named Jeff, this massive machine is his senior project. He was planning to make it seven feet tall, but didn’t have enough cash. Price for Game Man construction? $500. Link.
The Ancient Art of Metrocard Puppetry
Deadprogrammer’s Cafe writes “It seems like humans will try to fold and rearrange just about anything. Paper, money, postcards. Some people make a living folding their members in surprising manner. Others fold dollar bills. What chance did humble Metrocard stand from being turned into an art material?”… Link.
Working model roller coasters
Amazing model working Roller Coasters models built from 1995-2002. Building a working model roller coaster is an extremely complex process. Many things must come together to make a model roller coaster work properly. All of the following topics must be taken into account – layout, design, track, rails, cross ties, track support, wheels, cars, train dynamics, lift mechanisms, sprockets, chains, motors, brakes, magnets, tools, materials, adhesives, molds, and paints.
