For those of you with technical skills, a set of tools and some time on you hands (we know there are a lot of you), check out the projects by Limor Fried, a NYC-based engineer who focuses on open source hardware projects. She is a partner in a laser etching company that we noted a few weeks ago. Her projects range from from a simple bike stand (beginner's welding) to cell phone signal jammer (beginner's espionage), and all are extensively documented for the DIY engineer. Some of the more complicated projects are available as kits to save you the time of ordering the various components. Shown above is the x0xb0x, a full reproduction of the original Roland TB-303 synthesizer. She's got a nice set of photos documenting the assembly on Flickr. Fun!
