Self-Adhesive Water Drops
Pranks are always good for a laugh. Plunk down $23 and you’ll score eight of these self-adhesive PVC water droplets. Stick ‘em on someone’s car window and they’ll think King Kong was busy taking a piss nearby.
DIY PVC Sprinkler
If you’ve ever been to Florida, you know that in the summer months it gets unbearably hot. Nothing feels worse than the heat and humidity of Florida. So when Carl Morris, a Florida resident, set out to cool his kids off, you can bet he tried damn hard. It seems that hard work and patience paid off in the form of the KidWash 2.
KidWash 2 is a PVC pipe stand with misting water jets built-in. Run underneath it and get soaked. Walk near it and get soaked. Ride your bike through it and GET SOAKED. Carl was kind enough to throw a HOWTO up on Instructables so you can build your own and beat the heat!
Indiana Jones Raiders Of The Lost ArtFX Statue Fits Everything In
A movie such as Indiana Jones, where action and story twists come plentiful and often is hard to sum up in a few details. A concept called ArtFX combines the key points of movies with vivid detail, all into a three-dimensional culture-packed collage. The Indiana Jones Raiders Of The Lost Ark ArtFX statue shows how successful the concept can be.
Standing about a foot high, the statue combines the keynote stone sculptures of the Peruvian shrine, and the top displays the infamous podium from the first scene of the film. The podium is held up by the big stone ball booby-trap which chases a bull-whipping, snarling Indiana. The statue is a pvc plastic snap-fit kit, so you construct it yourself in seconds. The detail put into the statue is really magnificent. You can get your own for around $138 when it’s released in August 2008. (more…)
Wide-screen Outdoor Theater probably not as good as made to look
You know how in fast food ads, the food is always made to look like a perfect specimen of slightly cooked processed beef, but in actuality you’re getting the ugliest meal ever consumed? Something tells us this wide-screen outdoor projector is being advertised along the same lines. In all appearances, it looks like a perfect home theater to have a joyous day with family, outside watching a flick.
What they don’t show you is hat coming over the mountain to the rear of the camera are imposing storm clouds, coming to destroy your state of the art, high definition, white vinyl screen made with mesh-enforced PVC. Sure, it SAYS that its cinema quality, but do they mention that if its not used at a specific time, the lighting is all wrong and the screen is barely watchable? I think not. This catastrophe waiting to happen will cost you $2,400 for the 8 footer and $3,000 for the 12 footer. — Andrew Dobrow
