Homemade steak-knife-chainsaw. Yep. (1 video)

If there was ever a case to be made against Amazon.com, it would be that it allows this guy to buy the things he needs to make a homemade ‘chainsaw’ weapon out of steak knives and a handheld drill. I check this guy’s Youtube account from time to time, mainly to see if he’s still alive, and have to admit that there is a part of me that loves all of the homemade weapons he makes.  Understand, though, that this is the same...

This may look like a Ferrari – but it’s actually a bicycle (11 images, 1 video)

This kind of blew my mind when I saw it – a pedal-powered bicycle “Ferrari” called the Fahrradi Farfall FFX.  Okay, “bicycle” probably isn’t the right word, and granted, once you take a closer look, it’s obvious that it isn’t a Ferrari.  But all things considered, let’s just say they did wayyy better than I ever could have. It’s also sort of strange that I came across this, since it...

Carbon fiber wrapped Ferrari F40 (10 images)

Now, I’m not saying that I would do this if I had a Ferrari F40, but, I still think it’s pretty legit.  Especially the way the rain beads off the exterior, makes it look like the Batmobile or something. I do like all black cars, so I can support that part of it.  Especially with the black rims, it just looks mean, like it might take your lunch money if you keep staring at it.  Maybe I’ll look into getting my Toyota wrapped...

Cold War era spy gadgets (18 images)

Generally speaking, I post things because I find them interesting or think they’re cool.  These Cold War spy gadgets, however, are on another level.  Back in the day, these were the weapons with which the most powerful governments in the world carried out an information-collecting war. Some of them are pretty impressive, as I usually think of spy gadgets to be a more modern phenomenon.  They were able to make the cameras and guns...

Blackberry’s amazing new camera feature (1 video)

It’s been a hectic couple of days, and I’m about to head out of town for my brother’s college graduation (congrats, Dylan!), so I only had time for one post today.  BUT, it’s pretty awesome. The video below is of a new camera feature Blackberry and RIM have developed that allows you to travel back in time a couple of seconds to grab images of a person who may have blinked during the photo.  It’s a great technology...

Grilled cheese in the toaster? Don’t mind if I do (1 image, 1 video)

Grilled cheese in the toaster? Don’t mind if I do (1 image, 1 video)

I know this is pathetic to say, but sometimes I want a grilled cheese but don’t want to go to the trouble of making one.  More precisely, I don’t feel like dirtying and then washing the dishes necessary for making a grilled cheese. Enter the Toastabag, reusable bags / sleeves designed by Dutch design company Bosta that allow you to make a grille cheese right inside your toaster.  No mess.  No clean-up.  It’s the lazy...
