I just ran into this balancing bot kit. Kinda pricey but cool that you can get one. (Can we get some samples?)
Now, you can build your balbot using this kit instead of starting from scratch!
The BalBot Advanced kit includes everything the Basic kit does, PLUS the BrainBoard microcontroller board, 2 forward-looking infrared distance sensors, a programmer, serial cable, C-compiler, and more (see kit contents below for details)!
In short, the BalBot Advanced kit includes all the

Check out this cool orb that has a mini ITX that serves as a HTPC, Fileserver, and HTTP Server! Cool space looking design, maybe a grill was used here… You can make your next media PC like this and put it next to your TV and let your friends admire it.
Ah ha! Here’s a cool AVR LED Clock you can make that also syncs itself with the NTP time server via ethernet! (We are going to have to make this too…)

Here’s a cool video the new Vista by Bill Gates.
Check out these cool aqua teen hunger force toons made with text characters! Thanks Andy! 🙂

Here’s a trebuchet you can make this weekend! Try catching some marshmellows using your trebuchet. :p
TTA (Try and try again, also optimize…)
Here’s the pdf if you need it.
In this podcast you’ll see how to build a paperclip trebuchet and a medium sized trebuchet. The paperclip trebuchet can be made in under an hour and it teaches you a lot about how they work.

Here’s a cool multi-user audio instrument that’s really cool…
Things have been going crazy over Aqua Teen Hunger Force. I think their guerilla marketing strategy did work!
Check out these interesting links for the Aqua week:

Well, we just bought the Vex Robotics Kit for like a hundred bucks at Radio Shack while shopping for some parts. Check out the video of what’s inside the kit. Apparently, they are not selling too well at Radio Shack but the kit itself is a great deal and has lots of parts for other projects.
We couldn’t help but to open up the microcontroller box (spelled mirco controller on the box…) and found the PIC18F8520 is powering it. I think we might be

Here’s a cool old school CNC Machine Garrett made long time ago. We got some new stepper motor drivers that helped his machine to work again. 🙂
It’s a really cool CNC machine that you can make it to cut stuff but also draw stuff too. We plan to upgrade it using some Mach3 software (Thanks Art for the free program!) and some touchscreen controls…
