What do you get when you cross Scrabble with a Keyboard?

2009-01-20T17:57:00.004+11:00

Ever wondered what a keyboard would look like if it had Scrabble tiles for keys? This one of kind Keyboard has had so many responses that they are considering making a batch. The creator from Datamancer.net explains the concept:

"This keyboard was commissioned by a couple of friends of mine from back east who are avid Scrabble players. Most of the keys are made from real Scrabble tiles that were all hand-beveled (truly an exercise in patience/masochism!) and built onto a USB, clicky, mechanical-switch keyboard. This keyboard was going into a Mac environment so I decided to use brushed aluminum for the casing and round all of the corners to keep with the sleek, simple Macintosh styling. Near the end of the build, I decided that the keyboard looked a little too minimalist so I added some silver hardware and a seam to put a slightly industrialized twist on the design."

The Crayola Crayon Executive Pen is made with a brass body to give the weight and feel of a truly expensive pen. Turn the end to reveal the bold blue ink ball point. When you aren't busy using the pen in your next meeting, an included carrying case doubles as an executive pen holder. How said the work place can't be fun?

Weird Bed

2009-01-02T18:28:00.003+11:00

Whoever thought that a bed could look like this? Strange beds are nothing new, but one such as this definitely makes the brain reel!

Square Watermelons?

2009-01-01T12:33:00.004+11:00

What a beautiful display they will make in the Supermarket.
