Bert Simons created this excellent anatomical papercraft of the muscles of the human skull. Simons calls it an “anatomically incorrect representation,” but it looks pretty damn nifty, incorrect or not. Link [via]

Old meets new(ish) in Jay Hauf’s Dreamcast iPhone Dock creation. Mr. Hauf, you have just propelled yourself into one of the top spots for best iPhone dock mod. I don’t know if this is cooler than the Dinosaur Dock, because come on, it’s a fricken’ dinosaur, but it’s pretty damn close.

Cupcakes made with real spaghetti and meatballs would just be bizarre and sort of gross, so thankfully the baker of these gorgeous cupcakes inspired by “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs” opted for sweeter ingredients. The spaghetti is made using buttercream, the meatball is actually a Ferrero Rocher candy, the sauce is raspberry jam and the grated parmesan is actually ...

Hidden with the now iconic Shakespearean bust, this awesome modder who goes by the mysterious name “Jimmy” set up his very own Wayne Manor Batcave-inspired hidden entrance. Using a� motor attached to a gearbox, which directly powers a wheel, Jimmy couldn’t use a full-sized bookshelf because of the sheer size, but opted for a door covered in faux-library wallpaper.

Like a lot of geeks out there I have a constant stream of crap being shipped to me from various internet companies. But I’m getting sick of just chucking all of the cardboard away. There has to be something productive we can create using all of our excess boxes. And then I came across this and I had a “Eureka!” ...

An excellent idea for adding some extra depth into your home or apartment, a simple black vinyl wall sticker can transport your light switch into a 3D optical illusion. I’m sure you could pull this off with some plain black tape. You probably don’t even need to buy a special kit for this.

Star Wars fan and tangled wire advocate Brian De Vitis managed to have one of the greatest brainstorm ideas ever. Why not take every console I own (all eight of them) and stuff them all into that R2-D2 replica I’ve had sitting around the house. Well, EVERYONE has the supplies needed for this project. No excuses. Grab your droid and ...
