Tweak3D’s Homemade Playseat Cockpit with G25
Posted by craft on
February 28, 2009
We took a rusty old exercise bike someone threw out and turned it into a high quality racing seat for our Logitech G25 and Gran Turismo Prologue. I apologize for the video quality: It was shot during bright daylight with a Sharp DLP 5200 projector (120″ screen).
You can build something like this, too, and we’ve got the whole process explained in detail.

DIY: Homemade Lip Color
Posted by craft on

It’s easy as pie! Just use vaseline and any eyeshadow, pigments or blush. Dont throw them away, turn them into fun lip colors! Customize the color to your liking! Yes of course, it’s safe on the lips ( Most of your lip glosses are made from pure pigments anyways). So save money!
I use to play with my mother’s eyeshadows when I was a child. I applied eyeshadow on my vasaline moisturized lips and realize I created my own blue lip color! It was an amazing discovery for me, but I realize I was not the only one who did this.
Music
Classical Music are the best! Why else would Looney Tunes and Disney Use them?
