Just making this thread to see what you other people may have made in your free time. To clarify what I mean by this, I mean physical objects. Tools, gadgets, toys, backyard ballistics, Cannons, Instruments, Pimped out dog house or chicken coop, dubstep glasses, electronics, hacked consoles or homemade atari arcade games. Post it all here! I want to see all of it!

 

I have a few modded nerf guns, a potato cannon, and I am working on some cool electronics things that I may post here

I never tried any of that stuff, but I might, as GreekGadgetGuru has inspired me to with all the awesome stuff that he makes. You should go check him out.

Well, I made this a while ago:

Other than that, not much. I've made a few things for my mom, like a potato box so we don't have sacks of potatoes just lying around, but nothing cool :/

Made a big spud gun, only cost £20/$30 from my hardware store, Its sounds like a god dam cannon, ill try and find a pic but in total it was 6ft long and has an awesome paint job, a bit like the wonderbolt colours but red and yellow. Also made a fake heartbeat sensor for my airsoft gun which glows blue and pulsates red dots, also in school I made an RD plastic cut out with small engravings from the laser engraver. Teacher from the UK was like "Sam, what the hell is that thing?", Then came the awkward pokerface and walked out hehe.

My old school held a rocket car competition every year, I entered several time but only ever achieved as high as 2nd :/

 

Essentially it was just a car about the size of a cat that was made from wood and plastic and powered by a small rocket. That's the only thing I've built from scratch. I'm thinking about modding my new computer case though, it cost me £150 so I'm rather hesitant.
