Check. This. Out. Don from Ontario sent this video our way, of a marble catapult machine he made that uses the GM18 30:1 Mini Metal Gearmotor. He goes into great detail on the mechanics and engineering, and the action starts around the 3:37 mark. We can't believe how intricate the design is, and can't even […]
Protoshield, FTDI Breakouts, GM10s IN ST...

Alriiiiight. It's Friday, and you know what that means... We get to sleep in tomorrow morning! WOOOOO! Also, it means that it's time for the weekly news post of new product goodness. Today we've got four items to show off:
Designed particularly for the Freeduino SB (it works with other USB Arduino Boards too!), the SB-Protoboard will make your life a lot easier for those of you who want to do some fun custom stuff.
But wait, I said there were four items, did I? It's been a long time coming, but we're pleased to announce that GM10s are back in stock! They're a little bit different than before - the arm/head isn't quite the same and the shell is no longer transparent. Aside from that, it's the same quirky motor we all know and love.
Stay tuned, in the next few weeks we'll be adding lots of new products to the Interface Modules category, as well as starting a new mystery section. What could it be?! Oh, the anticipations...

Sherline Price Increase
Hey - don't blame us! We're just the messenger. Actually, Sherline has kept prices constant for the last 3 or 4 years, and were overdue for the increase. They're quality machines, and simply put - they're not cheap crap. If you're doing miniature machining, you'll be hard pressed to find a better machine with as […]
Mark Tilden's 600 foot workbench
Well, it's more like a workbench 600 feet in the air. In his apartment. In Hong Kong. Nice view... Dig around the large image to see what cool stuff you can pick out. Gareth @ Make Magazine (where it was first posted last week) already found a "teacup Stirling Engine" at 10 o'clock (near the […]
