Adam Savage's One Day Builds: 1000 Shot NERF Rival

Cheers Scooter - I'd seen the video on my list but hadn't got around to watching it yet.

I just left this in the comments:

<Stands holding the gun in his hands for 1000 shots>
<Complains that his arms are getting tired...>
- Hollywood warfighting at it's finest.... :-)

This is interesting: a modular plastic spaceship building system: spaceship Lego, essentially:

They've put up the full video for the scratchbuilt/kitbashed model seen in the "Universal Greeblie" video. Turns out it's based on drawing from a Moebius graphic novel. This a really good video, especially to show anyone just getting into this kind of modelling.

Neither Adam, nor Tested, nor model-making (although Adam's plunger does make an appearance...), just a treat for all the bereft Kari Byron fanboys, and also Simone Giertz who's smarter, cooler and tougher than she would have you believe  :wub: :

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTNohfs2o70

Simone works with/for Tested some times. She became famous for making "sh1tty robots" (her terminology) a few years back, and now does that plus a wider range of science videos. And sometimes she blows up brains...
