YosemiteOutside, a backpacker blog has detailed step-by-step instruction on how to build a Solar iPod Charger.
I looked everywhere for a lightweight solar iPod charger. Nothing fancy, just something I could attach to the top of my backpack. I couldn’t find one anywhere, I couldn’t even find instructions on how to build one. So, I set about building one for myself. As this was all about getting very light materials, this set-up is very simple but the charger has no protection from branches, rain, or marmots.
Peter Green has made himself a custom-built portable Mac Mini, with touch-screen and 3-hour battery life; also with its own stand and wireless keyboard!
Pictured above is the MK III (the latest version). For the MK II video, you can watch it after this jump.
Halloween is coming and I’m sure you all are preparing the coolest Halloween costumes, foods and decorations.
Here are the Halloween Hobgoblins - the Ghost and Bat that are easy to make using inexpensive materials. The main material is tampon. Don’t worry; your guests won’t realize that these decorations are made of tampon. So, feel free to hang them everywhere in the house.
