Line-X Coated Watermelon Dropped From 150-Feet
I have heard of watermelons and I have heard of Line-X. However, I have never thought about putting the two together and dropping it from a 150-foot tower. Well, these guys did and the video is worth a watch. By the way, if you haven’t heard of Line-X, it is a tough spray-on coating that […]
Kamp-Rite Tent Cot
I was recently at an outrigger race event and saw this cool/portable cot tent. Not only did it provide its owner a break from the elements but it also provided a place to change and some privacy while trying to get a nap. Another great feature of the Kamp-Rite Tent Cot ($128) is that it […]
Giant Cockroach Pool Float
We have seen some cool pool floats over the years (pizza slice pool float). This one might take the cake though. This giant Cockroach Pool Float is almost 6-feet tall and even has antenna and spindly legs. Pretty nasty and awesome at the same time.
MediPrint NovaCast 3D Printed Cast
The way we make casts hasn’t changed much in the last 50 years. We are still basically laying plaster (or its equivalent) to stabilize body parts. If you had a cast put on 20 years ago, and another today, you wouldn’t notice much difference. It is time for an upgrade. If for nothing else to […]
Apple Patents Tech to Catch iPhone Thieves Via Fingerprint Reader
Good looking out Apple. One of Apple’s latest patent applications shows how they plan to catch thieves by capturing their fingerprint and uploading it for further prosecution. Whether this patent will actually make it into an Apple product is yet to be seen, but what a great idea. If transmitted, the biometric data (either fingerprint […]

Tesla Model S P100D
As if the Tesla Model S wasn’t already amazing enough. I would argue it is the best car money can buy today. Well, it just got better. The newest Tesla Model S P100D (as in 100 kWh battery) has a range of 315 miles and a 0-60 time of just 2.5 seconds. Pretty much the […]
UK’s Red Phone Booths Become Smartphone Repair Shops
The iconic red UK phone booths are getting a new lease on life. Their latest role is being filled/created by Lovefone, a mobile phone repair shop. These underused phone booths now offer free Wi-Fi, six free charging ports, and an onsite repair shop. Each box is oriented differently, so Lovefone adapts the design to suit […]
Log Splitting Without An Axe
Splitting wood into kindling is arguably more dangerous than just splitting logs into halves or quarters. You are having to swing a sharp axe at a piece of wood that is shrinking with each strike. It is like performing surgery with a machete. Well this awesome product, the Kindling Cracker ($85) took a 13-year old […]
