Check out the Plasma speakers created by member Tony Salsich! That’s right, these speakers use a ball of plasma to generate incredibly accurate high frequency sound waves. Fed by a

Derek Sanford - I've wanted to make a ring from Patrick Adair Supplies for years but haven't had access to a lathe. The project was easy and very satisfying; just a couple hours. I used dragon scale opal (not enough), copper powder, and cremains from my father and grandfather to make the inlay.
