Ponyhenge: The Rocking Horse Graveyard


Published on Apr 6, 2019

"Outside of Boston is a special place where rocking horses go to retire. They settle into the circle formation and become a part of Ponyhenge.

This roadside oddity was hatched when the land owner had a haunted house event and had a headless horseman decoration. That horse was an old rocking horse. When the event was over and all was cleaned up that single rocking horse remained in the field. Didn’t take long for other rocking horses to start appearing; Ponyhenge was born."

Rocket Powered Fidget Spinner


Published on May 30, 2017 TheBackyardScientist

"Ok thats it, Fidget Spinner trend is over, cause this is the best one ever!! ;) I built a custom fidget spinner out of 1/4in aluminum plate and strapped 3 E sized rocket engines.

Really, I just wanted to do this. I saw Stephens video and needed answers. Plus, this gave me an excuse to buy a Plasma Cutter ive been eyeballing for yearssss. (dont tell sandra I could have made this with a jigsaw..)

The spinner has a 6 inch radius, so it travels ~37 inches to make a full circle. Its spinning 88 times per second (5200 per minute), so that means the tip is traveling 276 feet per second, or 188.182 MPH. so yeah, 1000mph fidget spinner is pretty much impossible... Who will accept my challenge?"

Insane 12000 RPM Spinning Tops.


Published on Mar 3, 2017 Latheman's crazy machines

How he starts them at 5:98.

"This is a demonstration my unconventional Spinning Tops with a very high center of gravity.
I made them on my Chinese mini lathe and mini mill out of round and hex brass and copper stock, balls from ball bearings, threaded rods from the hardware store and 3mm rods from old CD-ROM drives and of course golf balls, a 2 € coin, a tungsten ring (ebay jewelry), ball bearings, etc. I didn't draw any plans, but the dimensions are not critical, so it's enough to eyeball the dimensions if you want to make them by yourself."

Fingers of Steel - Mini Skateboarding


Fingers of Steel from Sebastian Linda on Vimeo.

"Chris Heck fought his way up over the most dangerous, lifethreatening tricks, with numerous sore finger injuryies, and nerval breakdowns to where he is today.

Since winning the German championship in 2003, he worked everyday on his inventive tricks while phoning with his wife wife Anna, on his wooden kitchen table.

Through this hard training his fingers became harder than any industry steal you can buy.

His Pro Model, with a a red Skwirral, (which is his favorite animal, right after turtles and foxes) crowns his legendary 21 years of Finger Skateboarding.

Ladies and gentlemen.

Tim's Japanese Folk Toy


Published on Jan 19, 2017 Grand Illusions

"Tim loves visiting Japan, and one of the reasons is a toy shop called Tokyu Hands, which has 3 or 4 branches in Tokyo. They sell all sorts of wonderful toys, many of which you cannot find outside Japan.

Tim bought this folk toy back in 2001. It just seems like a bunch of sticks, but you can do some amazing tricks with it. Tim admits he has not mastered them all yet! Tim thinks it is called a Nankin Mat No 2."
