For about two years I produced Weekend Projects, a series I created that kept me making something and making a video about it every week.
In one of my favorite videos, my friend Allison and I rapid prototyped a turkey for Thanksgiving. I revisited this video recently as I'm getting back into 3D modeling and using blender and pepakura 2.0 just came out.
A few years ago, I ran into CTP at Robogames and made this video about his wonderful Arca Musarithmica, which gets it's name from an autonomous musical instrument invented by Athanasius Kircher, a Jesuit priest, in the 16th century. Kircher was a brilliant inventor, scientist, and creator, but isn't very well known today.

Make your bike into a single speed hipster bike! This week Dave Neff joins me to take some old broken bikes and mash them up into a new radical ride. Everbody's experience will be different, but we rebuilt the bottom bracket, put new wheels on, chopped and flipped the handlebars, took off one of the front chain rings and put on a single speed bmx-style gear in the back.
