Did you see the lunar eclipse on Monday night? I wish they had it rescheduled for Sunday afternoon, so all of us night-owls-who-have-to-get-up-early could watch that. But noooOOoOO. But at least the internet will save us. At least from information deficit.

Laser Cut Helical Springs

These are awesome and need some sound proofing. But I guess this is not a concern... (Via Gizmodo)
Tattoo Machine Out of 3D Printer
This looks much better than the same done with a laser engraver! Less painful at least... (Via Dangerous Prototypes, video 1 and 2)
New Saturn Moon
Continuing with a lunar subject matter, this might be one of the last Saturn's newborn moons.(Via LiveScience)

It will not save from raptors, amnesia, junk mail and cat fur though.

I'm Dilan, a relatively new hire here at Solarbotics, and I am in charge of product development and R&D support.
