Awesome Giaco Whatever

Darkfade Flashlight

Darkfade Flashlight

Maker Giaco Whatever has spent four years engineering what he hopes is the world’s best handheld flashlight. The Darkfade has an “invisible” motion-sensing brightness control and an ergonomic shape that sits naturally in the hand while angling the beam just right. Its Samsung LED punches out light from behind 200 micro-lenses.

Probe Lens Robot

With builds like this and this, maker Giaco Whatever isn’t exactly known for his subtlety. So when he wanted to shoot a promo video for an upcoming Kickstarter campaign, he not only busted out one of those crazy Laowa probe lenses, but he fabricated a camera mount for an industrial robot to give it motion control.

NERF Porcupine Bomb

NERF Porcupine Bomb

For this dangerous looking build, Giaco Whatever created a really neat NERF weapon – a remote-controlled, CO2-powered bomb which can be placed on the ground, and fires a dozen or so darts in every direction. As an added bonus, he shot a little action movie to go with.

The Ultimate Unboxing Video

The Ultimate Unboxing Video

Builder Giaco Whatever has resisted accepting sponsorships from tool companies until the right one came along. But once he heard from HiKOKI, he not only took them up on their offer, but did them proud with a highly cinematic unboxing video. We can’t wait to see what he makes with his schmancy new power tools.

Building a Fake Airplane Galley

Building a Fake Airplane Galley

Maker and destroyer of things Giaco Whatever lives up to his name with a truly random project. He recently decided to build himself a replica of the galley from an airplane so he had a place to put his coffee maker in his shop. Of course, it helps that he had all the trolleys and bins.

Motorcycle Engine Pencil Sharpener

Did you break the tip on your pencil again? You could go for one of those fancy mechanical pencils, or you could rig up a pencil sharpener like the one Giaco Whatever hacked together – using a 1000cc two-stroke engine to spin the sharpener up to speed.

Inside an Airbag

Inside an Airbag

It’s kind of amazing to think that a small explosive charge is sitting in front of your face when you drive, but airbags are a critical part of making cars safer than ever before. Giaco Whatever decided to take apart some airbags so we can seen how they work in slow motion.

Crazy Powerful Mini Cannon

Crazy Powerful Mini Cannon

Because he hasn’t made enough dangerous things, Giaco Whatever teamed up with builder Kevin Lizotte to create a tiny cannon that’s ridiculously powerful for its size. The audio and slow-mo add to the drama, but we wouldn’t want to be on the business end of this thing.
