Jamie at Brick Jams became interested in pneumatic cylinders and ended up developing a machine capable of squashing everyday objects with ease under over 300 pounds of pressure. He put together 42 LEGO pneumatic cylinders and built a unique air compressor system.The resulting machine is rock solid on a reinforced frame and produces a steady, controlled pressure every time you open the valve.

Top Gear recently took the F-26 from Gunther Werks for a spin and came away convinced of what a beast of a car it truly is. The F-26, based on the 993 generation Porsche 911, gives the iconic slantnose design a makeover, filling it with a lot of the technology you’d expect in a high-end supercar that works just as well on the track as it does on the road.
Intelligence operatives have used some innovative techniques to snoop on information without ever having to step foot inside a target building. A simple approach that involves lasers has been around for eons, and transforms a standard window into a makeshift bug.
Alexander worked in his workshop for years on a simple goal: to turn spools of everyday filament into a workable internal combustion engine. That is, anything with a few hundred horsepower to get the aging bones going. His third generation of this made-from-scratch engine, known as the AP3 Carbon D125, has recently met that target. The new design surrounds a 125cc single-cylinder four-stroke engine, which is commonly found in scooters.
The Pixel 10a by Google is without a doubt the best budget phone in 2026 (as far as we know), and there are many reasons for this. It will set you back a mere $449 (was $499) and provides a flagship Android phone experience that will fit comfortably into your hand.
Footage from the Robotics and AI Institute shows AthenaZero, a robot, juggling three balls with only its bare hands. There are no external cameras whirling around it, and no extra tools assisting in guiding the balls into place; only the robot monitoring, adjusting, and maintaining the rhythm as it learns from each bounce off its palms with every contact.
Chris Hackman had a dream growing up in the late 1990s that was shared by countless other gamers: a Game Boy Color that could be worn like a watch. He never imagined it would happen, yet here we are, and it is called the Time Frog Color, his latest project.
Maker ‘Ancient’ recently worked on a project that transforms standard fog into a small stage for 3D models. So you stand in front of it and see this green ghost, also known as Slimer from Ghostbusters, floating around in mid-air. You go to one side, and the perspective refreshes fluidly, as if the ghost is actually floating about in there. There is no need for special glasses or anything like that.
Casio built its name with watches and calculators, but it has now released a standalone sampler that fits neatly in one hand and encourages musicians of all skill levels to get started right away. Weighing just 315 grams without batteries, the SXC-1 feels robust and comfortable in the hand.
Engineers squeezed a high-end TV into a panel that is only 9 millimeters thick. LG calls it the OLED evo W6, and once hanging, it truly lives true to its “wallpaper” label. Two flat mounting pads and a couple of screws hold the screen tightly against the wall, leaving no obvious gaps. A ultra slim power board at the back connects to the nearest outlet, and that’s it. What about the weighty electronics? They remain out of sight somewhere else.
