For this project you will need potato starch, white vinegar, baking soda, water, and glycerin (which can be found at most pharmacies). The tools for this project are a stove and saucer pan, in addition you’ll need a blender, knife, and peeler if you’re making your own starch.

Most Wiimote accessories are pitiful mockeries of the real thing. Cutesy, plastic tennis rackets don't make me feel like Andre Agassi. And the Wii Zapper doesn't make me feel like a Dirty Harry. But this Virtual Archery Bow by Thomas Foo is a full [..] Read complete article
