matchstick volcano cooking

Matchstick art isn’t a new form of expression. Whether it’s making giant dioramas or burning art, people seem to love gluing tiny pieces of flammable wood together. We’ve seen a matchstick volcano before, but that one was made for the sole purpose of burning a hole in the ozone layer. This volcano by Lavina would serve a higher purpose: to feed the hungry belly of its creator. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3rVl9lWtbw&ab_channel=LavinaLavinaVerified Unlike most matchstick projects, this volcano was made using a combination of matches and sparklers. While the cone of the volcano and the trail leading to it were made of matchsticks, the inside was filled with hundreds of sparklers. Their mission: to…

electrified carpet

Normally when you have a problem with your roommate, you do the civilized thing and have a nice talk with them. You sit down, lay down the issues at hand, and hopefully come to a compromise. William Osman tried talking to his roommate Mike about the noise of his feet when walking through the living room. But after being stood up for a Minecraft session, Osman decided the best way for his friend to get the point was by electrifying the carpet in the shared space. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wF7B14g1iLQ Making a sound-sensitive electric carpet requires a couple of things: First, a contact microphone. This takes in the sounds of Mike’s shuffling in…

standing mouse

Though my office chair provides great comfort, there are times I would rather stand whilst working. Think about it: you get better blood flow when you do this. You’ll be more awake and alert which helps you get away from that tempting afternoon nap. Not to just that! Also, consider the amount of exercise your legs would get when you are actually using them! Inventor Matty Benedetto seems to think that standing is the future in the workplace. He already created a standing keyboard – a keyboard specially designed to be used on a standing desk. So why not make a standing mouse as well? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1EX88DawQ4Y Unlike the standing keyboard…

Nikon is certainly one of the gigantic brands we trust when it comes to the selection of the best cameras for photography. The brand is known for its DSLR, mirrorless, and point-and-shoot cameras. Of course, mirrorless and DSLR cameras (compared to compact models) come with more powerful features you would enjoy. They also provide a better opportunity for growth. One good example is the Nikon Z6 II that comes with the perfect combinations of features such as a 273-point Hybrid AF system, two card slots, and continuous shooting mode up to 14 FPS. Given its nature as a mirrorless camera, you can also try a wide variety of lenses as…

Just like any brand, Sony has a lot to offer to photography individuals who are looking for the best camera units. It offers a wide range of options from mirrorless to compact cameras. And while you can’t rely on it to get the best and latest DSLR, its full-frame mirrorless units are highly capable of providing wondrous stills and videos. Of course, each model Sony is offering excels in a variety of ways depending on the needs of the users. So, while the Sony A7R Mark IV looks extremely brilliant, its 61 MP can be too much for other users who are just looking for a go-to cam. Sony A7…

inside lego railway

If the past couple of years have taught us anything, it’s that isolation can bring out the crazy, creative juices inside all of us. And that’s not a bad thing by any stretch of the imagination. Trapped within the confines of his home, Half-Asleep Chris took to making LEGO sets naturally. But upon making his first LEGO train set, his disappointment in the simplicity of the tracks pushed him to make his own. With 52 boxes of additional LEGO track, he created a line going around the inside and outside of his house. But what’s a train ride without some sights to see? In addition to the ridiculously long 100-meter…
