We recently saw a 3D-printed Apple Macintosh that looks exactly like the original. Scott Yu-Jan created something with a similar aesthetic but with his own unique design. His Macintosh Studio is a custom dock for an iPad Mini that sits atop a Mac Studio. The finished unit looks like one of Hartmut Esslinger’s 1980s Apple computer designs.

Some of Conan O’Brien’s funniest shows were the ones where he traveled to different countries. On his new series, the comedian and talk show host visits fans around the planet and embarrasses them by defiling their local traditions. Along the way, Conan stops in Norway, Thailand, Ireland, and Argentina. It debuts 4.18.24 on Max.

Animals come in all shapes and sizes. In this video from Posit Pixel, they use pixel art to describe some of the extremes of the animal kingdom, from diminutive parasitic wasps to a 42-foot-long snake. Along the way, you’ll learn about a fingernail-sized frog and Quetzalcoatlus, an extinct flying animal with a wingspan as big as a single-engine airplane.

These beautiful playing cards from Neversleep Co feature imagery of cats dressed in samurai armor. Each face card illustrates a different feline warrior, equipped with swords and other accessories surrounded by flourishes. The number cards have unique geometric patterns. Add-ons include poker chips, enamel pins, and a red deck as a stretch goal.

After the guys from the Hydraulic Press Channel got their new 300-ton press, they built an industrial-strength bunker around it to protect themselves and their workshop from flying debris. With the bunker in place, they used the machine to compress some large springs to see if they could make them go flying. It’s surprisingly harder than it looks.

This compact tool was designed by Joe Wu for CRKT. It can store up to four bits in its chamber, and ships with T6, T8, flathead 0.6 x 4.5, Philip PH1 bits, and has a driver socket beneath its threaded cap. It’s made from aluminum with a scratch-resistant anodized finish, and includes a pocket clip and key ring.

One of the vehicles headed to the 2024 Easter Jeep Safari is this overland-modded Grand Wagoneer. The Spearmint green SUV is lifted 1.5″, rolls on 35″ BFGoodrich mud-terrain tires, has skid plates, a WARN winch, and TYRI LED lighting. Topping off the Vacationeer is a RedTail Overland Skyloft rooftop camper that can be accessed from inside the SUV.

You know we love a good flashlight around here. While we’ve seen lots of really slick production models, we have to hand it to Maciej Nowak who built a custom flashlight by machining billet aluminum, then outfitted it with a super-bright 30W LED and three lithium-ion batteries. He even etched his own circuit board.

Hexcal makes a strong case for a $900 desk shelf. The Hexcal Studio isn’t just a fancy monitor riser. It has eight AC outlets (each with its own circuit breaker), two USB charging ports, a wireless charger, a 40″ wide chamber for routing and storing cables and adapters, two USB passthrough ports, and an adjustable LED lamp below its top surface.

The weather-resistant bag is also great for your everyday gadgets, and can attach to WANDRD’s laptop case for easy carrying on your back. It’s also available in 3-liter and 9-liter sizes.

You don’t need to be Ranni’s lackey and trek all over The Lands Between to get your hands on this bad boy. Though you may need to farm for its cost and the shipping fee. Panda Studio’s officially licensed life-sized resin replica of the Dark Moon Greatsword from Elden Ring is a crazy 59″ long. Limited to 88 units.

Accented Cinema neatly sums up the fundamental difference between Godzilla films: “American Godzilla is about Godzilla; Japanese Godzilla is about Life.” Giant monsters beating the crap out of each other can indeed make for a fun movie. But Japan’s Godzilla films show that the kaiju’s ultimate power is helping people reflect on real-world catastrophes.

Yolopark’s upcoming Transformers G1 action figures are way too good for their price. The AMK Pro Series Optimus Prime and Megatron action figures have sweet battle-damaged paint jobs on their metal and plastic parts. They’re both about 8″ tall and come with lighting effects, weapon accessories, and a display stand.

Wooting’s new 80% gaming keyboard has the same instant reset Hall Effect switches from the 60HE. But the 80HE also debuts a new setting that can further reduce mistakes and allow for rapid multiple inputs. The 80HE can be set to detect multiple key presses but activate only the one that was pressed furthest.

Alpaka’s slimline wallet is ideal for carrying just the items you need with none of the bulk. The Ark has four outside pockets for cards and an inner compartment that can hold a few folded bills. It’s stitched together from durable, weather-resistant X-Pac material in black, green, grey, brown, or our favorite color, Hot Orange.

We’ve never seen a light quite like the Kogalla UltRA. This outdoor adventure light connects five bright Cree LEDs on a flexible steel strap. Wrap it around your waist or hang it from your backpack for super-wide-area illumination. The light connects to an external battery pack (not included) via USB, and Kogalla also sells kits with a battery and mounts.

We’ve seen a skateboard powered by a pulsejet; now, here’s one that uses a turbine. After explaining how turbine engines work, Integza created a replica of the turbine used by the infamous V-2 rocket. He had the main part fabricated by JLC3DP and then made a set of reduction gears to increase torque. The turbine spins when exposed to high-pressure gas.

Balatro is your next gaming addiction – but not because it’s a poker game. It merely uses the card game’s hands as a starting point, and then it quickly goes off the rails. Like fellow indie hit Vampire Survivors, this fast-paced roguelike keeps you hooked with lots of shiny rewards that will help you rack up scores on the edge of math.

A while back, Colin Furze built an unusual vehicle known as a Rhino tank. Its dome-shaped wheels were supposed to provide grip in the mud but ended up just getting him stuck. Fellow maker James Bruton took a stab at building a smaller, R/C version with electric motors in hopes that the added torque would improve his chances of success.
