Check out this awesome LED Hat you can make for Halloween! There’s some construction notes that you can refer to build one yourself.
I think this was originally because I was planning to go to the Burning Man festival, in which being cover
Wow, this is an awesome instructables on how to make an LED Hoola Hoop!
Some friends wanted a lighted hula hoop for burningman, and when they turned out to be about $200 each, I decided to make one. All the parts cost about $15 . . . total time to make the hoop was about 3 hours, but that included time for figuring things out. You could probably make one in less than 2 hours with this instructable and soldering skills . . .

Cool, I’ve always wanted to make an ant farm. I remember making one out of some glass jars when I was little but wasn’t really all that successful. Here’s how to make a luxurious ant farm!
If you don’t want to build an ant farm, you can always check out these ant farms you can buy.
A few weeks ago a friend of mine was reminiscing about their old ant farm and so I decided to make an ant farm and give
Here’s a nice wireless wall digital photo frame howto.
A quick search of the web turned up several do-it-yourself articles by photographers that had built their own digital frames – typically from discarded laptops. The laptop based digital frames have larger screens (10” to 15”), and tend to be reasonably inexpensive to build (provided you own a discarded laptop).
The laptop projects that I saw had a couple of common issues, however. All of them involved taking the laptop apart completely and ge
Wow, check out this awesome window shade that also acts as a solar powered light!
This is a continuation of a project from Design for the 5 Senses that I worked on with Michael Jefferson and Jae In Lee. It’s a window shade that doubles as a light. One set of strings would be to control the level of sunlight by adjusting the height of the shade. The other set of strings controls the light level. I didn’t have time to add a solar component to it f
Wow, check out this cool Monty bike this guy made!
This is a small, simple recumbent bicycle. With its 16″ wheels Monty is a portable vehicle which easily can be dismantled. I wanted a bike that I can bring on trains, buses and other means of public transport. Since there are hardly any small foldable recumbent bikes on the market I decided to build one myself.
Here’s a cool DIY I stumbled onto today that shows you how to setup a custom firewall using iptables. This might not be for those of you who already have a GUI server management system but it’s good to know just in case your GUI goes down…
After getting some problems with firestarter i decided to get knowledge about iptables and how to set my own firewall script and want to share this experience for users who want to set a custom firewall up quickly. The purpose of this
Here’s a cool blue heart LED light that you can use as an example to make some water filled lights. It’d be really cool if it was RGB.
This is small gift i maked for my girlfriend for Valentine’s day. 🙂 Blue is her favorite color. So i decided make something that is blue.
First idea was to make copper sulphate crystals (I will place instructable how to make them later 😉 ) So i was started making crystals but i failed. 🙁 After two days i only haved so
Here’s a cool little project that stores data into an SD card using solar power.
After some prodding from customers and an upcoming prototype run I decided to throw in a little breakout board that would allow 2 solar panels to be connected in parallel to a 7805 linear regulator. An LED was added with a switch so the user could identify when the board was making power. These boards can output 8V@300 mA and should easily provide more than enough votage and current to charge the batteries. This setup
