Combination of Supercar and Superbike
This is by far the weirdest diy i ever seen. The combination of Supercar and Superbike. I wonder is the bike the one controlling the direction or is the car steering wheel responsible for it? This DIY project done by Frenchman François Knorreck, took him over a 10 year span in which he spent over 10,000 hours building it from the frame up. The combining of a car and a bike definitely involve some tricky engineering to balance it properly.
There are a total of 3 exhaust pipes. The hubs and brakes come from a VW Golf GTI, the wheels are from an Audi 80, headlights and blinkers came from BMW and Renault cars, the bike’s headlight comes from a Kawasaki 1000 RX bike, the tail lights from a Citroën Xantia car and that’s a 3CL motorcycle used. The bodywork was made from 63 custom molds.

Child creates vacuum cleaner-powered Spider-man suit
Kids are getting smarter and innovative now. This kid by the name of Hibiki Kono used two 1,400 watt vacuum cleaners so that they have enough power to suck up against a wall. The end result is a super suit that is a little Iron Man and Spider-man at the same time. Maybe his idea should be mass produce for kids. As they always dream of being some marvel super hero. But of course the equipments produce should try to limit the height or have mattresses and harnesses while playing with it.

Batman Golf Cart
Golf is getting more and more popular these days. But the design of golf cart do not seem to have much changes. This just happens to have been created by a Warner Bros employee who works in LA. This batman golf cart definitely feel more robust and fast as compare to the old type of golf cart. Hopefully his creation will soon be a part of the tour of the studio, at least it should be added. There is no current tutorial or any hint on how this was made. This is just a picture that someone captured while on the studio grounds, so there really isn’t much information at all to go with it.

Classic Mac turned into iPad dock
Well you finally got yourself the latest and greatest in Apple technology, but the iPad is so large that none of the small holders will work to hold it upright. Sure, you could just purchase a cheap new accessory or you could get creative. Take your very old outdated classic Mac and turn it into a dock. Sure, it’ll make you look incredibly behind in the times, but you’ll get to remember the retro technology from not so long ago. You won’t be able to purchase this one, so you’ll have to get busy and make one yourself if you’re interested.
