One of my friends is starting a plumbing business in San Francisco. Well, he happens to be a crazy Z-addict and recently, he spray painted his rims he got off a Mercedes Benz. The above picture is actually after the Nissan Z has been driven awhile(ignore the dirt, it looks good in real life), but it’s a good thing I took some pictures of the process so you can spray paint your rims. (the right way of course)
1) Anyways, first you will need some rims like below: (Take out any scre
Check out this cool DIY replica fighter jet that can actually run at 5MPH. Of course, that’s on the ground only but I wouldn’t mind having one of these in my garage, great for weekend neighborhood showoffs.
Measuring seven metres in length and four metres in width the £4,000 F-35 Lightning II Fighter Jet has been built at a scale of 1:2.
Resembling Tom Cruise’s jet out of Top Gun, it took 3,500 hours to construct the model.
The plane is constructed from iron, wood, hard foam, fibreglass and lots of epoxy filler, c

Here’s a really cool project that uses fog and reat projection video to animate things like eyes under the fog.
If you’ve ever ridden the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland,
Here’s an idea I had been thinking of before, getting together bunch of 16GB SD cards and making a Solid State Drive.
Apparently, a company in Germany has made this type of device available already, what a great idea:
With the Flexi-Drive S2S we introduce a flexible adjustable memory solution.
Simply insert the desired number of SDHC cards (max. 6) into the Flexi-Drive’s slots. The card’s individual memory capa

Here’s a really cool DIY that involves an Arduino microcontroller module, LEDs, and a motor to spin the freak out of the POV display. I really enjoy this except I can’t understand the language on the DIY Page.
Well, the most I enjoyed is the background music, don’t u agree?
If you are like me, you probably have bunch of old keyboards laying around. Of course, one of the great ideas is to cut the cord and give it to your toddlers as kids. But if you don’t have any kids, you can always make these cool thumbtacks.
Now these keyboard thumbtacks can serve more than one purpose, they can also priotize your notes from A-Z or 0-9 and control/alt keys for extra too.
Old hacked up keyboard keys + push pins = awesome keyboard thumb tacks! In just a few minutes I modified some keys from old keyboards, hot glued p

Here’s a really cool DIY POV Clock made with a Propeller. (One of the best I’ve seen) Too bad, there’s no instructions for it, this could be a really neat project for Propeller hackers.
If you are a plumber or simply have a LOT of extra galvanized pipe parts laying inside your garage, you might want to consider making a cool computer table with those extra parts. Just remember, the galvanized pipes do have leftover resin and oil so you don’t want to build this for your kids, maybe as an extra table in your lonely garage where you can play poker with friends.

In case you haven’t noticed, eco-friendly and green people have been trying to replace traditional energy-robbing halogen bulbs with bunch of low-energy, low-cost LEDs. Which is a great thing for safety, energy, and also creative DIYs such as this one that shows you how to make LED chandelier for low-energy, high-style kitchen.
I wanted to experiment with a lot of LED;s on AC mains, and this
