Hidden Radio is a Radio without Buttons!

Here’s a cool Hidden Radio that works by pushing and twisting instead of all those annoying buttons.

Designed by Australian John Van Den Nieuwenhuizen, this concept model of Hidden Radio is rather unique. It is completely button-less, requiring you to twist, lift or push it instead to manipulate the volume. The radio also comes with a LED light that will glow brightly/dimmer depending on the current signal strength

Here’s a lovely LED Swing Wing I would love to one day make one for myself when I get a real house.

Made from plastic with fibre optic lighting inserted. On a dark summer night the swing creates a spectacular light show that lights up a whole garden in the most beautiful way. The swing was originally shown in the “Five playful chairs” exhibition in 2005 and has been a huge success around the globe. Over 30 000 internet sites has written about Sense as well as large newspaper articles in New York Times, Herald Tribune, Taipei Times and Frankfurter Allgemeine.

This new educational kit lets you explore the mechanisms involved in harnessing the alternative energy of wind power. The windmill features loop-wing design that can be rotated by the slightest breeze. You can also run while holding it to generate wind artificially. The kit comes with a rechargeable vehicle that uses power generated by the windmill, running for 1-2 minutes for each 5-10 minute of charge.

If you ever been to Las Vegas or any other resort-area, you will have noticed these Dry Water Massagers in the malls.

Well, now you can get one of these cool massage machines right in your home for just $29,500.

Sounds expensive?

Yes, it surely is but for the best personal massage in the world without a real human massager, this might be your best bet at saving your back.

The Dry Water Jet Massager.
Used at five-star resort spas, this device provides a full-body water jet massage without getting you wet, and uses aromatherapy, relaxing audio, and video to soothe your tactile, olfactory, auditory, and optical senses. While your head rests comfortably on a headrest outside of the unit, 28 nozzles inside the canopy deliver precise, invigorating streams of water that replicate the principles of shiatsu, or “finger pressure” massage, as they strike the pliable polymer sheet that provides a waterproof barrier between you and the nozzles (allowing use while completely clothed).

RoofRay is a site that let’s you calculate your home’s solar power potential using the power of GoogleMaps.

It’s very interesting as the site will caculate the solar power potential based on the roof area and the slope of the roof.

It’s probably pretty accurate as most data is using direct satellite images off GoogleMaps.

The greatest part about this site is that you can find out how much energy you will be able to make with new solar power cells.  Then you calculate how much it is to install new solar panels on your roof to see how long it will take you to payoff the panels itself.

The RoofRay site allows you to specify location, size and slope of your roof via Google Maps. It then uses this info to estimate how much energy can be generated from your available exposure.

I must admit I do spend an awful amount of time in front of my computer and there’s always need for some nice toasted bread.

What better way to satisfy that late night snack craving than a healthy piece of toast? Just slide in a slice of bread - and voila you have toast in just minutes.

Wow, here’s a really cool DIY on how to make a Tennis Ball Massage Chair that will get leave you feeling fully relaxed. Even better, you could probably substitute any type of ball such as golf balls to get a different effect.(softer or harder)

The tennis balls you see are not glued in place; they are held only by different-sized holes in the top and bottom sheets of plywood. The holes on the bottom are smaller so the balls don’t push through when you sit on it. To create the contoured effect, the sizes of the top and bottom holes vary in specific ratios. The balls can still freely rotate and some of them can come all the way out. That said, it is much easier to make without all the contouring, but decidedly less comfortable. I made prototype version in which the balls do not contour, and will include some pictures of that chair at the end of the instructable.
