Ancient DIY Electric Centrifuge BB Gun To Shoot Your Eye Out
December 30th, 2006
This DIY electric centrifuge BB gun may be from a 1963 issue of Pop Mech. But that doesn’t mean it can’t hurl pellets at ridiculous velocity. According to the article, the muzzle velocity will reach 5,000 feet per second, which is better than a rifle. Click on the image for the full schematic.

Wii owners listen up. The developers at Red Kawa are giving you (and a few PS3 owners) a reason to rejoice. They’ve created an app that lets you stream pictures, music, and videos from your Mac or PC straight to your Wii. The software is in alpha and only certain files are supported, but it beats loading them up on an SD card to play. My Wii is still at the store, so any pioneering Wii owners who try it out give us a shout in the comments and let us know how it works.
