Today August 21, 2017, we were treated to about 80% solar eclipse. In spite of the smoke, the weather cooperated so we couldn't miss this event. Pinhole projector boxes were made out of cereal and shipping boxes: Fancy ones were mounted onto a tripod, and a phone camera recording a time lapse video was taped […]
PIMP YO' SUMO!
Dave Hrynkiw
April 1, 2009
The biggest complaint we've ever had is that the Sumovore is boring. I mean, yeah, it can beat the tar out of most other sumos in the ring without batting an eye. But it's just so boring to watch. It'd be funner to watch the paint dry on a pot of boiling water. So, after listening to you, our faithful customers, we've come up with a solution. It's time to... Pimp yo' Sumo. That's right. What the Sumovore is obviously missing is some big, phat rims and some sweet sweet underglow. Now you'll win in the ring because the other bots won't even try. They know that they've already been outclassed and outgunned. There ain't no sane competitor who'll roll into the ring when their opponent is sittin' all stylish-like. "Where do I get some of this awesome, awesome goodness?" you ask. For a limited time only you can get your own Sumovore Pimpin' Upgrade for just $3.95. It includes:
- Two big, white and pimpin' spinners (with pimpin' mounting screws)
- An ultra-bright, pimpin'-green LED
- A pimpin' 150ohm resistor
- Five pimpin' inches of wire
Better grab it quick - quantities are limited. We can't let just anybody get their hands on something this fantastic!

Heat sinks, Screwdrivers and the Lessons...
You would think in these days it would be a simple task to source something you want to have made. After all, MAKE, the Internet and the world "getting smaller" would have you think that it'd be an easy task. Sometime it is, and sometimes it's like this! We've been to Hong Kong and China […]
