No, this isn’t your Russian roulette or Vegas roulette you are more familiar with.  It’s a “techno-geek” coffee roulette machine made from worn-out harddrives to find out who’s making coffee for the day.

This is a gadget made from recycled computer parts to give an absolute, unequivocal and irrefutable answer to that eternal office question - “Whose turn is it to make the coffee?” Each time the power is turned on, this wonderful device will randomly select a person to do the coffee-run.

If you live in a world where you have to worry about your coffee being stolen, you are probably in the wrong place to live but here’s a Lock It Cup just in case.

A cup that is designed for people who share facilities at their work place, such as the kitchen. The cup has a hole which prevents most people from using it. Only the owner of the cup can use his shaped key to close the hole, pour the coffee and enjoy the drinking.

Here’s one for everyone that remembers the old black board when they were at school, especially when the teacher used scratch his finger nails down it, just to get everyone’s attention.

The chalk mug is exactly what it says; you can write your messages on, pretty good for telling your work mates exactly what you think of them, when it is your turn to make the coffee.

The mug has a surface which you can easily write on, which can be easily cleaned too; there is also a complementary piece of chalk, which should get you started on all of those messages.

Here’s a cool NES controlled espresso machinery!

…a PIC 16F876 microcontroller brain, a 20 character VFD display, nintendo controller, three zero-crossing solid state relays, IC thermometer, laser cut acrylic top, cold cathode ground effects and shot light. This project has stretched out for quite some time, and will likely continue on as I pick away at it some more. But for now, the bulk of the first wave of coolness is complete…
