Clip On Solar Fan – Feels Good… Looks Dorky
Sure you can clip the fan on your hat… but you could clip it just about anywhere you have some sun. Not sure why but I kinda think I could rock the dork-factor at a street fair or parade. For $10 how can you go wrong? [Source]
Wolverine Claws
“Sideshow Collectibles is selling a prop replica of the Wolverine claws used by Hugh Jackman (or his stunt double) in the X-Men films. Instead of Adamantium, the replica claws are made from solid machined aluminum and include the stainless steel palm attachments which enabled the actors to wear the claws on set. Of course the […]
Atmos 561 – Magic Clocks Run Forever…
If you have never heard of Atmos clocks I wouldn’t be surprised… they are amazing… but expensive (cheapest one is about $5000). The clock pictured above is an 80th anniversary unit. The Atmos clocks run, in theory, forever with no batteries, solar bits, or electricity…. they are powered by temperature fluctuations. There is a mixture […]
LED Lit Showerhead Tells You If Water Is Hot Or Cold
I almost thought this was a good idea… almost. Then I realized I can just put my hand into the stream of water… and shebang I can sense the temperature with my hand. No batteries, no basketball sized showerhead, no lights illuminating my nudity. If you think this is a good idea however, you can […]

HowTo – Install Your Keys Into A Leatherman
Pyro222 a user at Instructables decided that carrying a Leatherman and his keys in separate bundles was just too much…. and I agree with him. Very cool “how to” with a bunch of keys and Leatherman ending up as one unit. Just don’t expect to have this in your carry on items when you fly. […]

Automatic Transmission Electric Bicycle
The folks at Hammacher Schlemmer have a new electric bicycle with an intelligent automatic transmission. The good news… you don’t have to peddle… the bad news is that it costs $5,500. Ouch. “This is the electric bicycle that uses automatic transmission to downshift into a lower gear when it senses a hill, upshifts for […]
Self Defense Table
If you live in the hood… and don’t want to have the obvious choice (a gun… duh) then maybe you need a self-defense table. The table transforms into a bat for butt whooping and a shield to keep you from getting a butt whooping… unless of course they have a gun… duh. [Source]
Harley Davidson Museum
Looks like Harley-Davidson is celebrating 105 years of (so-so) motorcycle building with a new 20-acre museum. From the looks of things the museum (pentagram designed) is stunning. There are vintage bikes, a restoration area, a restaurant, cafe, and store. Admission will set you back $16. I just hope the dorks with the loud speakers on […]
