User SFHandyman discuses how to use a silicone mold to form the candy and goes through the process of using Jello to create the actual candy.

Poppin’ LEGO Bottles

Designed by one Mariann Asanuma, this LEGO champagne bottle is exquisite and features great detail to the neck of the bottle. I have to say, I’m more fond of the brand of champagne she chose. Any bottle with a pirate flag on it is a bottle for good times. The bottle is also designed to “break” into five pieces, as ...

Time Tracking of Yesteryear Finds New Light

Apparently, NXT STEP blog reader DTAAX’s watch must have broke, which would explain why he designed this LEGO sundial. This DIY finds a new way to tell time the old way. It was built using the LEGO NTX platform (plus a PDA for trigonometric functions) using a slew of light and touch sensors, allowing the sundial to perform like any ...
