HOW TO: Build Your Own Net Launcher

Filed under: DIYs, Misc. Gadgets

For our readers who hunt wild game or just live in an area with cool shit they’d like to capture, listen up. Instructables user Crispyjones has posted full details on how to make your own net-launching gun, just like the kind Batman used. It’s comprised of PVC pipe and uses pressurized air to launch the net at around 90 PSI. Judging by the animated GIF provided by Crispyjones, I’d say this is a mod worth anyone’s time.

Tech-inspired Sculptures That Come To Life

Filed under: DIYs, Design, Robots

Creating artistic tech-inspired sculptures with nothing more than recycled goods and other garbage is a popular form of art these days. Like the City Foundry Bots or those mini-motorcycles made of old watch parts, these sculptures are made in a similar way but take it to the next level: they’re animated.

We aren’t sure what mechanical artist Nemo Gould is going for with these robots but boy are they frightening. The sculpture picture above is called Little Big Man. Check it, where his robotic intestines should be there is a smaller robot inside appearing as if to operate the Big Man.  Very creepy, indeed.  Check out Gould’s site for more information about his work.
