Make your very own 3 foot high Tornado. While this wont be able to hurl cows, and is in no way “The Finger of God” It is a damn cool project. Plus, the plans to build it are FREE! So, why not try it? Be sure to send us some photos, and as soon as [...]
Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) embedded in each of its three S-shaped blades fire in sequence as the blades rotate, painting a video screen that appears to hang in the air. This full colour and motion image is clearly visible day and night.
