Shirt Folding Machine

Shirt Folding Machine

While this device is designed for folding and packaging shirts for sale, we’d love to have one in our laundry room. Simply place a shirt in the middle of the Speedy-T, and it takes care of neatly folding and stacking shirts like a champ.

DistilUnion Wally Micro

DistilUnion Wally Micro

Our go-to everyday wallet, the leather Wally Micro is almost like carrying almost nothing. Just a hair larger than your cards, yet capable of holding up to 10 of them, along with paper money, it’s the perfect wallet for those who like to travel light, and bulge-free. Plus, it’s reversible.

An awesome pack of foam dart toys which includes a pair of pump-action, break-action, double-barrel shotguns, along with a duo of pocket-sized single dart blasters that can fire projectiles up to 80 feet.

Vampire Weekend Live

Vampire Weekend Live

La Blogotheque unearths one of their pocket concerts from 2009 – when people still used digital cameras instead of phones to take pictures – featuring world rockers Vampire Weekend. Watch them play songs from their debut album and the then-unreleased Contra.

The Apprehension Engine

The Apprehension Engine

A unique machine designed solely to produce eerie sounds for horror films. Luthier Tony Duggan-Smith created this combination of strings, rods, magnets, wood, and other found objects so Indie Film Maker could make original sounds instead of turning to a stock library.

Driven: Lotus Evora 400

Driven: Lotus Evora 400

Our friends at DriveWithDave spent an afternoon with the new Lotus Evora 400, the fastest Lotus road car ever.  A supercharged 3.5 liter V6 packs 400 horses, and the car sprints from 0-60 in 4.1 seconds with a 186 mph top end. Plus, it’s got an incredible exhaust note.

SNL: SWAT Recon

SNL: SWAT Recon

A couple of SWAT team members are staking out a deadly killer, when they’re distracted by his neighbors, who clearly live a much more exciting life than the murderer. We want to party with these guys.

Working LEGO Printer

Working LEGO Printer

JK Brickworks shows off another awesome mechanical build – a fully-functional printer/plotter that uses a pen to draw words and images on a sheet of paper that it feeds using the wheels from a LEGO vehicle, and a Mindstorms’ EV3 controller.

The Bucket

The Bucket

TheFieldLab mounted a camera at the bottom of a bucket filled with water, then placed it outdoors where various animals might drink from it. The unique perspective from beneath the surface is both silly and soothing.

Puddles Pity Party: Space Oddity

Puddles Pity Party: Space Oddity

We’re going to go out on a limb and say that a musician with the bold theatricality of Puddles the Clown owes a great debt to David Bowie, so it’s only fitting that he should take one of The Thin White Duke’s greatest tunes, and knock it out of the park.

Jenga-playing Robot

Jenga-playing Robot

It may look a little bit like a sideways stargate, but this robot is designed to carefully position itself around a Jenga stack, methodically pluck out a wooden block, and move it to the top of the stack. We’d be curious to see if it could play an entire game, but we’re guessing not.

The RickMobile

The RickMobile

He’s coming to your town, he’ll help you get rickety-rickety-wrecked, son! Adult Swim tries to one-up the Wienermobile with their own unique vehicle. Clearly, on this timeline, Rick is a van, and he’s selling Rick and Morty-branded merch out of the back of it.

CNC Machining a Bust

CNC Machining a Bust

There’s something just so satisfying about watching this Thermwood 5-axis milling machine gradually transform a nondescript block of low-density foam into an intricately-carved sculpture. We wonder how long it took to complete the entire model.

The Common Folk SS 2017

The Common Folk SS 2017
Buy

The Common Folk’s Spring Summer 2017 collection is a tongue-in-cheek mix of traditional Japanese silhouettes and athleisure, decked in the season’s colors and patterns. The headliner is a kimono-length reversible sukajan, but all the pants are fire.

Ping Pong for One

Ping Pong for One

Master of making stuff The Q is back with another cool build, though this one is decidedly less complex than his other creations. It’s a tiny, handheld ping pong table, which lets you bounce the ball back and forth between the sides when you can’t find a partner.

Bricks Book Shelves

Bricks Book Shelves
Buy

Designed by Gerard De Hoop for Pols Potten, Bricks are minimalist bookshelves that mimic the construction of a brick wall. They provide an illusion of space while allowing easy access to their contents. Available as freestanding shelves or as a wall-mounted shelf.

Korean Coldplay

Korean Coldplay

We’ve had no luck finding out the name of this Korean musician that Mo Elnadi recorded while performing on the street in London, but we were duly impressed by his minimal cover of Coldplay’s Fix You on his MicroKorgXL synth. His cover of Oasis’ Stand by Me ain’t bad either.

Adidas x Wings + Horns Campus

Adidas x Wings + Horns Campus
Buy

Adidas Originals and Wings + Horns‘ premium take on the Campus silhouette is part of their SS 2017 collection. The shoe’s upper is made of a single piece of water-resistant leather with hand-stitched heel and stripe details. Available in gray and navy.

Making Globes

Making Globes

A campy old film from British Pathé that shows how globes used to be handmade using papier mache, plaster, paper cutting, and painting. While most of today’s globes are mass-produced from plastic, there are still a handful of globemakers who still make them this way.

Dolby: Escape

Dolby: Escape

While we wish we could watch this clip using the Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos tech it was designed to showcase, Limbert Fabian and Brandon Oldenburg’ animated short still looks great and Imogen Heap’s soundtrack sounds amazing on a good pair of headphones.
