"Should we all start wearing radiation badges now? Imagine how much damage you could do to someone's body if you're not careful with this. "

"Interesting approach! Ultimately you still need to determine the position of the bird. I wonder if you can do it with contacts on the perch, separated by some small distance. Weight is only measured when the bird's feet are on both contacts. Like how heart rate monitors on exercise equipment work - you have to grab both handles and be touching both contacts at the same time. "

"Thank you for sharing The Carpentry Way. Helped me put things in perspective today. "

"I absolutely love this. And, as a product designer, I never realized how valuable a 4 minute quickly produced video could be to the end user. We often make instruction manuals that we try to make as general/universal as possible (and as slick as possible). But this has me thinking that maybe a quick and dirty video would be even more valuable to our customers. "

"How would you adjust the reading based on where the bird is perched along the cantilever? The perch would have to detect where the bird is, right? I can't think of any other way. "

"I wish every gym had rubber plates. We get it bro, you just did drop sets to failure. How about keeping 1 rep in the tank so you can lower those weights without dropping them. "

"I put mine in the freezer. Not a perfect solution but saves me from having to dry it out and prevents any funk from forming. "

"How do the rear brakes work? I can't figure out the mechanism between the seat post and trailer. Also, how bad do you want to see someone ride the front wheel by itself!"

"Why doesn't the fire fighting robot in the next post have an axe? "

""All-day battery life". Does this mean you have to recharge it every day? Why not include a simple bubble level for when the battery inevitably dies?"

"Great point. Maybe it makes it easier to return the bit to its place in the holder. "

"Love this design and the notch in the case. As an origami enthusiast, I'm really curious what the manufacturing process looks like. I'm guessing a machine takes a sheet and creates each long fold one-by-one, like an accordion. Then you would need a comb-like jig (same number of teeth as valley folds) to make the final folds in a partially manual process? Press the comb against the sheet where you need to fold the legs up and down. They probably aren't selling enough to justify a fully automated process. But I'm interested to hear other people's thoughts. "
