This is a really interesting Kickstarter project – build your own electronics with modular components. Something like Modulo might have kept Radio Shack in business.

Moleskine mods
There are a few cool moleskine notebook mods on Instructables, including a pencil holder and sharpener.

Matchbox Pinhole Camera
I love this, and I have to make one!
Here’s my latest contraption which uses 35mm film to provide square images of 24 x 24mm. Using this size means that you can get up to 50 exposures on a standard roll of 36 exposure film. Now that’s what I call economy!The image edges suffer from distortion that gives a “Diana” quality to the pictures. In fact, the images look very “toy camera” like indeed, except that the pinhole allows some really good close ups due to the DOF of the pinhole.
It’s also costs pretty much nothing to build – certainly a lot cheaper than a $100 Diana off ebay!
The results look pretty great:
And there’s plenty more pinhole eye-candy at his Flickr pool.
PocketMod: The Free Recyclable Personal Organizer
I’m going to print one up right now:
The PocketMod is a new way to keep yourself organized. Lets face it, PDAs are too expensive and cumbersome, and organizers are bulky and hard to carry around. Nothing beats a folded up piece of paper. That is until now. With the PocketMod, you can carry around the days notes, keep them organized in any way you wish, then easily transfer the notes to your PDA, spreadsheet, or planner.The PocketMod is a small book with guides on each page. These guides or templates, combined with a unique folding style, enable a normal piece of paper to become the ultimate note card. It is hard to describe just how incredibly useful the PocketMod is. It’s best that you just dive in and create one.
Compact Keychain
This is so cool. I must make it.
All you need is washers and rivets, and you have yourself a quiet, compact set of keys.
