Hand-made Solar Pendulum of Doom!I love MAKE magazine. I always enjoy reading (then trying) the projects in each magazine. I was a bit disappointed in their last issue where they didn't cover the complete process to make gunpowder, but that's a minor complaint.

I just noticed on their blog that they're talking about our Solar Pendulum kit and Christopher Pepe's version he built from our book "Junkbots, Bugbots, and Bots on Wheels". Always nice to see other successful projects online!
