5 More Pencil Lead Carvings
5 More Pencil Lead Carvings

Due to the popularity of my last blog post on pencil lead carving, I’ve hunted down 4 more fine examples of Dalton Ghetti’s work and one more example from the amazing miniature artist Willard Wigan. Each of Dalton Ghetti’s pencil lead carvings take up to a year to carve. Mainly, because carving pencil lead is a finicky business and he reports massive casualties in [...]

Snipers and Robot Segways

Wow, I could have easily mistaken one of these mean robot thugs for a mean human thug… well actually not. These robot segway contraptions are pretty distinctive, even with their dark hoodies. However, from two hundred meters away, looking down the sight of a  7.62x51mm M40 sniper rifle, it looks real enough. Australia’s Marathon Robotics created these segway mounted mannequins in order to [...]

Jaw Dropping Ted Demo

This is a truly amazing piece of technology. It looks like it has some incredible functionality. One can zoom about the known universe, observing planet , star, and fly space whats-it names, while having the ability to pull up detailed information on orbits and interesting factoids.  I hope to get a chance to play around with it in the future.
