Making Your Own Pen Is So Beautiful It Might Be Worth It

May 04, 5:00AM

Things I've considered making on my own: a computer, a coffee table, a treehouse, mayonnaise and a few other things. Things I've never considered making on my own: toilet paper, socks, phones and pens. But maybe I should reconsider that last one. Making your own pen is such a beautiful process of machinery porn that I want to see the steel strip off the barrel in real life.

F-16s Are Even More Awesome from the Inside

May 03, 10:48PM

Goose only wishes he had moves like these. This stunning dash cam footage from an F-16 attached to the 51st Wing captured some intense aerial action at the recent Red Flag-Alaska exercises—including mid-air refuelings, targeted bomb strikes, low-altitude flybys, and even a cameo appearance by a B-2 stealth bomber. Makes Vegas' F-22s look downright tame.

Commuting Is No Sweat on These Swanky E-Bikes

May 03, 9:20PM

With gas prices hovering around $4 a gallon and what seems an entire generation shunning automobiles, it's no wonder that bike commuting has seen such a resurgence in recent years. But for all the physical and environmental benefits riding imparts, it nevertheless leaves you a hot, sweaty mess. That is, of course, unless you get your bike to do the pedaling for you.

Possibly the Best Music Discovery System Yet

May 03, 8:20PM

In the digital age of "nichification" it's often easier to find lots of things you already like, while inadvertently walling yourself off from experiencing new things that you don't know about yet. When it comes to music, recommendation systems like Pandora's can help you discover music you may not have heard before, but that music is going to be related to the genre you're already listening to.

This Dead Space Plasma Cutter Blinds and Burns With Lasers Instead

May 03, 8:00PM

Apparently today's theme is dangerous DIY props because as a follow-up to the frightening 80,000-volt Thor hammer we now have an equally terrifying replica of the Dead Space Plasma Cutter. As far as prop design and attention to detail go it's beautiful, but the use of a pair of 1,500-milliwatt burning blue lasers has us cautious about recommending this as a DIY.

May 03, 7:00PM

When Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater was completed in 1937, it was both an artistic accomplishment and a marvel of engineering. The residence's design—set above a waterfall—is meant to evoke harmony between house and nature, and it achieves that through cantilevered floors supported by reinforced concrete, a technology that was relatively new at the time. The design was so daring that Fallingwater's engineer actually had a support wall put in—and Wright subsequently took a layer of bricks out to prove his original design was sound.
