Today we have two superstars - the Kossel Pro 3D Printer and the SketchBoard. Both are relatively new add-ons to the Solarbotics website. Initially created as a Kickstarter project and designed around the OpenBeam aluminum extrusion system, Kossel Pro is now available for purchase.

Mathematically Correct Breakfast: How to Slice a Bagel into Two Linked Halves Never thought math and bagels went together so well! While I am no mathematician at any rate, the intellectual stimualtion of creating a two-twist moebius strip, you can get slightly more cream cheese on, because the surface area is bigger. |

15 Sorting Algorithms in 6 Minutes Can 15 sorting algorithms be interesting? Over 5 minutes? I didn't think so either, but this is pretty cool. |

T8 the Bio Inspired 3D Printed Spider Octopod Robot Don't like spiders? Me neither! But this one has some pretty amazing moves that any disco dancer would be jealous of. And it is made of smooth 3D printed plastic. |

Retrotechtacular: Singing bird automata There's something extremely fascinating about old technology. This one is a singing bird box automaton from the 1890′s. |

Which are by some strange coincidence […]
