This is a video of mad engineer Shane of Youtube channel Stuff Made Here (previously) attaching a chainsaw to an industrial robotic arm and programming it to carve a dog sculpture out of a block of foam. Its first effort is an absolute disaster, but the second dog it produces

This is a video of Theo Jansen’s latest Strandbeest: a caterpillar that’s pulled behind another wind-powered mechanical sculpture, inch-worming its way across the sand.

Inspired by Grand Davis’ previously posted linear LEGO domino machine, fellow LEGO builder JK Brickworks decided to finally finish the infinity loop LEGO domino track he’d put on the back burner, where all my own projects remain. The build consists of a ring of 64 dominos that fall, and as

This is a compilation video from Youtube channel Just Rolled In of cars brought into the mechanic with something wrong with them that makes them sound like they’re doing animal impressions. You know, I’ve found there’s usually something wrong with people who do a lot of animal impressions too. This
