I made this sign based on part of a quote about a fictional group that still fits quite well for today’s maker community. For aren’t we all Dreamers, Shapers, Singers, and Makers to some extent? I hope this inspires you to turn whatever is your favorite inspirational quote into something to Read more…
The Pythagorean Goblet, big brother to the more infamous Pythagorean Cup (but really the same thing) is an item that both demonstrated the siphon effect as well as the user’s propensity for practical jokes. Though frankly, I doubt it would actually be effective as one because the concept is pretty Read more…
I made this coin flask for a friend – and in a hurry. I hope it does not show on the finished product, but there are a couple of things that I would have done differently if I had thought I had more time.
