Dave Molmen has sent in the picture build log of his custom Exuberant Clock. The clock concept is very interesting. The center of the clock slowly rotates, to read the time all you need to do is see which slot the brass circle is in, this is the hour representation and what minute indication it is beside. The clock face moves the brass indicator across the minute number one per minute and when the full hour has expired the clock advances to allow the time indicator to slide into the next hour indication. Thanks to Dave for turning to the Gear Clock kit electronics as the base electronics controller for this clock. Since this clock doesn’t operate in the same way the Gear Clock did some custom firmware was needed.

Who knew pacemakers were so versatile, I thought they only had one purpose. This Pacemaker Camera Flash Project sure proved me wrong. “I took this photograph by feeding the output of an infrared barrier to the atrium input of an old DDD pacemaker, setting an appropriate AV delay, and using the ventricular output to trigger a camera flash”

Instructables member Fatratmatt has posted in his blog an amazing concept of building a Steampunk analog clock. The clock not only displays the time, month, date and day of the week but it is even equipped with an option of playing a video of the correct moon phase for the current date and time. You can create your own audio effects with the selectable volume controls when the moon phase video is being played. The dials are electroluminescent and are activated and dimmed by touch. Fatratmatt has provided complete list of items, design steps and necessary software codes in his post here. To get an idea about this crazy project, watch this video below.

Laughingsquid member EDW Lynch reported the new design concept of Air-Free Tire by Bridgestone. This Air-Free Tire is basically an airless tire design concept that relies on thermoplastic resin spokes to give the tire its shape and flexibility. This newly designed tire is 100% recyclable. Currently the holders of lightweight carts and personal mobility devices can be benefited with this new launch and very soon this design concept will brought up for the larger vehicle holders too. More at Laughingsquid. For advanced features of this new concept, watch the video below:

Instructables member Dimovi shares a wonderful hack where you can turn your old LCD monitor into a privacy monitor! The crazy thing with this privacy monitor is that it looks all white to everybody except you, because you are wearing “magic” glasses! People might think you are crazy, staring at a blank white screen wearing sunglasses! But I guess that makes it even more fun! Materials required for this build are:
You can refer the step-by-step procedure of making this project here.
