But is it a viable alternative to a £200 lightsaber?

Quick masks from masks

Have just stuck on a pair of toe clips for the first time, but dismayed at how weak they feel...

Quite a few homebrew type options out there...

ELwire is brilliant :)



Perhaps on a smaller scale, this could be integrated onto a messenger bag, one big spiral, blinking with an arduino?

Messenger Bags

Not that im a Fixie Hipster or anything... but I could really do with a bigger messenger /shoulder strap type bag. I've got a small one that I use regularly that I picked up from TKMAX years ago. However, its absolutely tiny; it must be 15 litres at the most and really can't fit much in it. When I take my climbing gear with me to work it's bursting out of it throughout the day. and that's with my locks dangling on the outside
So I've started using my Arette 35 but its so bloody huge its ridiculous.
Saw Bre do a weekend projects on messenger bags for MAKE: a while ago, using ironed up bin liners and stolen vinyl from supermarkets... nice video guide

Also saw LFGSS has a nice merged post on some of the forumengers attempts



Also some nice project photos here
