Jake Rogers spent weeks in a garage turning permanent magnets and brushless motors into a palm-sized hoverboard that actually floats. His miniature board sits a few millimeters above a thick copper plate with no wheels, no air cushion, and no external power cable once the batteries are clipped in.
Jurgen started with a municipal Iveco 6×6 that once served a Belgian town. The body dates to 2005, while the current living package went on in 2024. He kept the manual gearbox, added cruise control and air conditioning, and rebuilt the rest around long overland trips and the practical needs of desert rally support.
Simon Sörensen is all too familiar with turning filament into machines that move on his RCLifeOn channel, so building a full size tracked vehicle a person could sit on and drive became the logical next step (or so we think) to see where ordinary plastic starts to fail under real weight and power.
Microsoft marked twenty-five years of Xbox with a limited translucent green Series X that sold out almost immediately after preorders opened. Fans who missed the official limited run found a stronger alternative from Tito of Macho Nacho Productions, who took a standard Series S and rebuilt it into a custom anniversary edition that follows the original prototype shape while using the same green color Microsoft chose for its own special console.
Jay Leno settled into the left seat of a Cirrus G3 Vision Jet on a clear day over Southern California, side yoke in hand and Matt Bergwall from Cirrus sitting beside him. Bergwall walked him through the takeoff sequence, thrust lever forward, acceleration building, then a pull at about 60 knots. Leno compared the sensation right away to one of his turbine motorcycles, only this time the ground was falling away instead of staying under the wheels. The single Williams International FJ33 turbofan mounted on top of the fuselage pushed the 6,000-pound carbon-fiber airframe upward without the usual propeller noise or vibration.
