A bike for the desert and for the water The first step in building a bike like this is to collect lots of raw materials. I spent about a month cruising junk yards and yard sales buying old bikes that I could use for the frame. I decided to use bikes with 24 inch wheels because they are abundant and cheap. I figured with the style of the bike the wheel size would not matter. I stayed away from bikes with suspension forks and tried to get them with about the same frame size.

30lb Fighting Robot-Nyx The pile of flat stock was waterjet cut by Westar Mfg. out of 6061 aluminum and 4130 steel. Drawings for this collection of parts along with materials, thicknesses and quantities can be found here. The top armor and two supplimental weapons were not included in that collection to allow modifications to be made for weight purposes. Those files are located here. These drawings were done with the intent that most would be made on a waterjet, and as such did not require dimensioning. Each of the drawings that was meant for waterjet cutting has a 1" reference square on the sheet. With the great deal of interlocking components, the order of assembly is important. The other main piece of the day was countersinking the holes on the inner rails to ensure there would be no contact between the moving roller chain and the bolt heads.

Werewolf Stilts, digitigrade legs. The epic costume requires much preparation. Inspired by the designs from supernatural themed movies these stilts are metal and plastic which makes for a safer and longer wearable appendage. All of the computer generated templates and drawing files are located in the digi.rar file on the materials page. I recommend that you download and read this entire instructable before beginning your project. Build early so you can practice and get used to walking in these stilts. You can download the complete instructions in 2 parts in the materials section of this instructable. I spent approximately $120 to build these. The stilts shown weigh about 8 pounds each. The stilts pictured were tested thoroughly bay a person weighing 200 pounds plus carrying an additional 30 pounds of weight. NOTE!!!!

Lightweight Interactive LED DJ Panels Hello there! Brian Allen here, Training/Technical Specialist at Elemental LED bringing you my very first Instrucatable. I've always been somewhat of a music fanatic (ok...ok, so that may be a slight understatement), whether it's listening, creating, or incorporating lighting of some sort. I was chatting with some close friends of mine who DJ this last summer about building some sort of an interactive DJ booth that would create a light show based on the music being played,much like the artist Pretty Lights. What we have here is a series of 5 LED panels that correspond with different beats, or decibels(dB), to create an instant light show. The trick was to build something that would have a grand appearance without a large cost that you would normally pay for at DJ or lighting stores while remaining lightweight so one can easily transport. Overall I took roughly 25 hours for the project from designing to building. Here I'll walk you through the steps to build your own!
