Dog-O-Matic - Automatic Dog Washer
May 23, 2009 at 5:59 pm

 

Today our lives are busier than ever, it seems that automatic pet washers are becoming more popular. I bet most of the pets would not be very cooperative going into the machine the second time! I am all about convenience but how long will it be before an animal has a heart attack in one of these things?

Acrylic Blue LED Guitar
May 22, 2009 at 10:00 pm

 

This guitar looks quite good with some blue LEDs installed. I think a great next mod for this guitar would be to make the LEDs flash in time with the music.

"Stuff used:

- Acrylic Guitar
- Blue LEDs
- A Rocker Switch salvaged from a broken laptop power supply
- A bunch of Icicle sticks which were saved up (I knew they might come in handy)
- Soldering iron
- A Drill
- A steel rule
- Screwdrivers
- My brother’s arm. I didn’t have a set of helping hands at this point"
