Look! Bird (-shaped bullets) made holes in bird... feathers! Well, not quite, although that would have been awesome too.

Gadgets advertised in a 1962 issue of "Famous Monsters of Filmland" The MONSTER inside the Black Box. Heh - sounds familiar! |

Ok, besides being a conjunction of two things we really love (Make Magazine & BEAM Robotics), it also is an open-source hardware project that is about little "T-Beams".
