Done

Finally on the display on Dremel's booth at the Assembly Summer 2010.


I like to build pieces that people can touch and use. As this was a project for a client I had
to place a "don't touch" sign on the table. People were really interested about this crazy looking build
and several visitors made a joke about iPhone's recent reception problems and how this unit with its massive
antenna could solve the problem. 

Conclusion

I'm glad you had the will to read the article this far. I really love to build things like this and
I'm sure not everybody find them appealing. The phrase "The beauty is in the eye of the beholder" fits
nicely here but then again, perhaps the aim of all this is not to make anything pretty to look at. "I do
it because I can" is another way to look at it and merging together totally different types of components
is a thrill and seeing it work in the end makes it all worthwhile. This at least for me.
So, if you have some ideas, even ones that may sound idiotic at first, please, share them. We have
seen PCs being built inside toilet seats, coffee maker inside a PC, computer mice built inside a real
mice etc. Not everything needs to be built but when we start losing our ability to come up with new ideas,
we start to die little from inside.
Whoah, that was deep... Well, I hope you enjoyed my little project and hopefully you picked up some
ideas or something from it that you can use later on your own projects. If nothing more, hopefully some
courage to publish something as idiotic as this in the internet.
