TAG RESULTS FOR: cubes

What is it about cubes that activates our innate geeky attraction? Does it have something to do with our natural attraction to Geometry and segmented squares? I don’t know, I was never great at math. But what I do know is that anything involving cubes usually catches my eye. This Matthius Pugin’s Cube Office Desk is particularly awesome because it’s composed of variously sized multi-colored cubes which can all be used as individual storage hubs. It sort of makes all...

Want to freak your guests out at your next box social? Pick up a few of these unique ice trays that form ice in the shape of dentures. Drop some into a gin and tonic, serve it up and watch the horror unfold. After all, the slogan for Frozen Smiles reads “not your grandfather’s ice tray.” How witty! If you added just enough red food dye to the ice tray, you’d probably have some realistic looking teeth going on. Link... Continue reading

I love the concept of these Ice and Slices trays. Slice up a lemon or a lime, put it in the tray, add water and freeze. Presto. Next time you have a vodka cocktail or something equally fruity on the rocks, you can just drop in a few slice cubes of lemon or lime. Genius! Only a mere six bucks. Link [via]

The IceOrb is one of the finest ice-related inventions on the planet. Fill up the outer mold with water then put the inner mold in and freeze it. Remove and presto: 21 oddly-shaped ice cubes. At $16, it’s totally not worth it but don’t let me hold you back. You can pick up one of those Lamborgini lighters while you’re at it. Link (via)

Sure, RPGing was definitely not the intention of these Giant Foam Cheese Dice (obviously the point was to attract aging gold digger women in casinos), but seriously, how could you not at least wonder what it would be like to play a little DnD with these bad boys? The only problem is that giant dice with only 6 sides is not acceptable. Give us some more options to work with! Each of the bouncy Foam Dice measures 16″ by 16″... Continue reading

If the Lego Diamond Ring wasn’t enough “ice” to cool your Lego-themed gadget jets, then the Lego Ice Tray will be sure to drop your temperature. The tray produces 10 Lego cubes with each load and makes your beverages absurdly geeky. Sadly for us, they are not yet available in the U.S. *whimper* But maybe we’ll have one of our Asian friends pick one up for us because they sure as hell leave more of an impression than your average...

Somethings we’ll never understand, but we learn to accept them as certainties. What is our geeky obsession with cool clocks and watches? We don’t have an answer for that question, but we do have incentive for you to join our excitement. The Four Cubes Clock is a snazzy tabletop timepiece consisting of…well, four cubes that display the time, two designated for the hour and two for the minutes. The cubes are connected through a wire that allows the cubes to... Continue reading

Some really cool things can be done with Photoshop. Most people really don’t want to spend the money to purchase a plug-in to do something that you can supposedly do yourself. But dammit if it isn’t a whole lot easier. The Panos Cube effect from PanosFX allows Photoshop users to add pictures onto a cool looking cube graphic in 18 different varieties. 9 effects for the one picture option and 9 effects for the three picture option. The only needed... Continue reading

These damn Rubik’s cubes might be damn near impossible if you’re not an obsessive kid with a super high memory, but some very cool products and projects get created through this 80′s puzzle wonder. This Illuminated Cube displays 27 different patterns of multicolored lights, which light up to the pattern of the music you are listening to, via internal speakers. The cube measures in at 110 mm all around (it is a cube after all) and weighs 150g. The lights... Continue reading
