No matter how much you may be winning your latest video game, there’s no winnin’ when your snacks are out of reach. You have options like placing multiple bags and bowls within arms reach but what if you could have a bowl attached to your controller? And what if it had a gimbal design to keep your snacks stationary? …excluding the occasional tossing of the controller across the room, of course. In perhaps our most almost-practical model of the week, Noycebru presents his ultra-innovative controller attachment to keep a sizeable snack load within a double jump of your nubs. This is a gyro snack bowl mount for your Xbox one…
It’s always nice when a product’s design lends itself to multiple functions. Not only is it more versatile, but saves a ton of space by doing what two or more things do. And, if you think the room/cubicle divider couldn’t be innovated any further, Stone Designs is out to prove you wrong. Their Gemini divider, designed in collaboration with Glimakra, is a furniture piece which looks like a head-height whiteboard on one side, a divider on another, with a full-on storage area in between. It’s one furniture piece with three specific functions. The Gemini works just as well at home as it does plopped between you and a fellow co-worker.…
When we started harvesting the Gloobs of Moondrahr we hadn’t considered their spiky exteriors and razor-like barbs effect on our mesh containment system. Fortunately, we had just enough propellant left to spray-line the interior with the plasticy protection of these links. Tan Zhi Hui – His skewed stylings are a beauty to behold. Characters you’ll recognize from comic to manga and beyond with some process shown among his works. Whimsical Balance – 3D exploration of geometry and light. A collaboration between Pol Sola and Guasch Studio. A City of Nowhere – Haoyu Wang explores megastructures as an instrument of architectural imagination.

While face masks may offer some protection from inhaling a nasty virus, personal protective equipment (PPE) like a face shield guard your entire face from coming into contact with touches, sneezes, wood chips and much more. Now, you may have seen list of PPE supplies or some wearing full face shields to protect people from COVID-19. Though they help, donning a helmet or straping a large sheet of plastic to your head isn’t the trendiest or most comfortable. However, there’s one solution that rises above the rest – the Clip-On Shield by Komi Creations. This particular face shield piles on top of the endless designs you’ll see in online searches,…
Anyone old enough with an internet connection will know a lot of life-size scale LEGO models of real vehicles have been made over the years. Whether it’s a stationary Volkswagen hippie van made from 400,000 bricks or an actual, driveable LEGO Bugatti Chiron, there’s a sense awe that comes from seeing 1:1 scale builds made from the charming building blocks. One reason these builds are so amazing is due to the use of actual LEGO bricks. Just imagining the amount of work and time spent planning, not to mention building, one of these babies is enough to make you look at your meager LEGO bin in shame. Instead of using…
Today I’m looking at a 3D printer I had not seen before, the Incus Hammer Lab35. Incus Background Incus is a spin off of Austria-based Lithoz, who have done very well with their line of ceramic 3D printers. Now it seems they’ve leveraged their expertise to produce a metal 3D printer that is capable of incredibly smooth surfaces. LMM 3D Printing The Incus metal 3D printing process is cold; that is, it does not require the high temperatures normally used to melt metal powder in other metal 3D printing systems. The cold process, which Incus calls “Lithography-based Metal Manufacturing”, or “LMM”, produces a “green” part, which is a combination of…
