If you've done any light painting, you must know the Orb. Usually you create an orb by rotating a string with a light at the end while doing a little spin. Round? yes! Perfect? No! What if you wanted perfect?

Hugo Baptista Took this to a whole new level by making his orbs with a drill attached to a Telescope mount. Here is his story about creating the tool. Isn't it perfect?

How to Do the Martini Diet

post from How to of the Day on 01 May 2012 10:00:00 AM. © How to of the Day

Despite its self-indulgent name, the Martini Diet is not a license to drink an endless stream of martinis. Actually, the diet gets its name from the idea that every portion of food that you eat should fit into a 3-ounce martini glass??if it doesn't, you're consuming too much. The easily visualized diet portions in this diet and the emphasis on quality food and exercise allow you to combine equal measures of indulgence and restraint.

Molger and Kassett united

post from IKEA Hackers on 01 May 2012 08:35:53 AM. © IKEA Hackers

Materials: Molger bench, Kassett boxes (largest size)

Description: I do like the concept of open storage but was sick of the dust collecting on the actually not that attractive bottles of cleaning agents and rolls of toilet paper.

So I bought two Kassett boxes in the largest size available which would be able to accommodate everything stored on that bench easily.

Since they were to high to fit in between the boards I took the bench apart, drilled new holes in the legs and put it back together. A simple measurement which created a lot more, easier to clean, room for storage.
