In case the geek crafts from the previous post aren’t of interest, here’s another potential hobby: build your own instruments!
Although, speaking as someone who’s tried several times to re-skin a hand drum, it’s almost always harder than it looks. The PVC didgeridoo is intriguing, however…
The geeks finally get into the act. First there was Martha Stewart Living, then ReadyMade, and now there’s Make, a brand-new O’Reilly pub coming our way, full of fun tech projects you can build at home!
Most look interesting, especially the $14 Steadicam. I’m not sure, but I’m willing to bet it’s this design. For someone who has crazy dreams of making at least cool home movies, that one in particular is way cool. Looks like it’ll be an interesting read, especially now that other cool gadget mags like Whole Earth Review are gone.
