Gauss guns, aka coilguns, are a projectile based weapon most commonly found in science-fiction but which can be built with today’s technology. They work by using electromagnets to propel solid slugs at a high velocity. This gauss gun, with a full auto feature, was developed by Delta V Engineering. Delta V is about making sci-fi […]
Making Link’s Master Sword in real life could kill you
In many ways this is an interesting video. It shows some modern expert blacksmiths making Legend of Zelda’s Master Sword. This is Link’s Master Sword. It is just a recreation of course but the sword itself is just cut from a sheet of steel. Does that mean it’s weak? Not at all; watch to end […]
The dice hate me!

Agent Coulson gathers his team from across the US to investigate the growing number of superheroes. This is a Joss Whedon (Jed too) project and it’s hard to see […]

Wizards without Coats: Vampire
Really? When did Vampires get groupies? What a drag! This is the dangers of making vampires seem sexy and popular. The zombiebox broadcast system (aka; the TV) has made the bloodsuckers a favourite of teen fans all across the kingdoms. This gives adventurers a whole new problem!

Geek Week is being kind to us. It’s given us up two and a half minutes of Thor: The Dark World in trailer form. We get plenty of Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Natalie Portman, Tom Hiddleston as Loki and Anthony Hopkins as Odin. We also get some teasers of Idris Elba as Heimdall. What about […]
