Concept Multi-compartment Refrigerator!

This concept multi-compartment fridge lets you store different food groups separately.  Of course, it’s a good way for students to share their fridge without eating up each others food.

This concept (?) fridge from Electrolux uses modular stacking mini-units to provide personal refrigeration compartments for everyone in the household — it’s designed for shared student accomodation:

Pixel Art Coasters!

Pixel Art Coasters!

Pixel Art Coasters!

Here’s a fun way to add digitized pixels into your over-digitized life.  It’s a Pixel Art Coaster that can be attached to your dining table or any other furniture.

They’re made from a resilient paper fiber that should hold up to the condensation you might get on the bottom of your cup, or the occasional spill. In addition to the blue palette (which I prefer), there’s also a hot pink version if you’re looking for something a bit more girly.

Here’s a funny design for a doorbell, an Enter Key Doorbell straight off a regular keyboard. (or is it a MAC?)

Created by Li Jianye, this doorbell takes its inspiration from one of the most famous keyboard keys ever - “Enter”.

SX02 Flight Simulators with Surround Sound and 3 LCDs!

SX02 Flight Simulators with Surround Sound and 3 LCDs!

For gamers and flying enthusiasts, having a SX02 Flight Simulator in the house might not be such a bad idea.  Afterall, the SX02 Flight Simulators come loaded with surround displays (3 LCDs) and every control, peripheral you need to enjoy a good virtual flight in your livingroom.

There’s no cost information on the product page but do expect to drop at least couple grand on a setup like this.  (Better yet, go build one yourself with a real ejaculated jet plane seat.  But don’t ejaculate.  LOL)

With surround sound, you get surround vision as well. Utilising Matrox technology, we can format a triple screen layout, so you can be totally immersed in the cockpit. Experience surround graphics for yourself.

The SX02 fighter layout, featuring a centrally mounted HOTAS Joystick, a tension adjustable hand throttle, with digital programmable readout, Saitek adjustable flight pedals, a trackball for formatting the PC and a Logitech backlit keyboard, the SX02 Simulator will immerse you like never before.

The Simworx Flight Deck can be adjusted fore and aft, up and down and is flexible enough to support a variety of control hardware formats, including a yoke and throttle quadrant for general aviation.

DIY - How to Make a Golf Ball Pool Table!

Check out this cool DIY on how to make your own Golf Ball Pool Table where golf balls are used for balls.  (Better yet, the Pool Table would go well with real “green” grass that requires an in-house maintainence guy.)

It’s basically just a table-top pool table that uses golf balls. It’s actually quite fun and makes for a nice, quiet, drinking game. Plus, it stores as easily as a card table.

DIY - How to Build a Traffic Cone Lamp!

DIY - How to Build a Traffic Cone Lamp!

Traffic Cone Lamp seems like a such a great idea for making traffic cones safer in general by contractors and alike who use them on a daily basis.

In case you want to just make a Traffic Cone Lamp for your garage, here’s how to do it.

Cones are available on eBay for cheap, but the shipping can be a bit much. Orphan cones are a dime a dozen in cities, but often too dirty and messed up to use. Please don’t steal them from active job sites, because they are safety equipment for someone. Other good places to check are auto salvage yards and the county/municipal dump, because that’s where the local government takes their bulk waste.

My cone is 28″ tall and 14-3/4″ square at the base, and weighed about eight pounds before the lamp parts were added. They come in all different sizes, and you could even make a desktop one out a of a little tiny cone. I used a 75-watt equivalent compact fluorescent. A brighter fixture could eliminate the need for the holes. Do not use conventional bulbs; they get hot enough to damage/burn/melt the cone if there’s nowhere for the heat to escape.

The block light is an amazing light that lets you change its appearance to anything you like. The limitation is only that of your imagination, so it’s a perfect item for anyone that considers themselves a bit arty.
