Each year for the last few years, Reddit has had a Secret Santa gift exchange. This is my first year in, and here's what I received from my mystery gifter! 
How neat is that! A nanoblock shuttle!! A big thank-you to the person who took the time to see what I was into :) There's a couple more photos on Flickr.

November 10, 2012 was McHappy Day and to do my bit, I thought I would head down to Macca's and have a Big Mac or two :) Parked out the front of the store was the DeLorean DMC-12 "Back to the Future" car!! How cool :)

The Doc was there to show people over the car - he let me sit in the drivers seat!! However, I wasn't allowed to take it for a drive :( Check out the full set of photos on Flickr

Every year I drag the kids along to the Melbourne Show. It's always a bit of fun. Looking at the animals, going on the rides, checking out the stalls selling everything from your name made from bent wire to rainbow coloured pens. I snapped a few photos while I was there.

  Plasma globes, as they go, are pretty cool. The HAL 9000 computer from '2001 a Space Odyssey' was pretty cool too, unless you were Dave. For whatever reason, HAL just did't like Dave.
Anyhow, I figured what would be cooler than a plasma globe stuffed inside a HAL 9000 shell to sit on my desk where I can bask in it's plasmary goodness!
Laser cut from 3mm & 5mm acrylic, this stands 250mm high and is 100mm square. Inside you will find a 3" USB powered plasma globe. Want to make one? Get the files from Thingiverse! Some construction photos after the jump!

Being a child of the 70's, arcade games hold more for me than these xbox things... I've often thought about buying one - a real one - for home. I've looked at MAME cabinets and all sorts of options, but at the moment I've only got a little place with little space, so what I needed was a little arcade machine.
I drew this up over the last couple of evenings in CorelDRAW. It stands about 130cm / 5" tall and laser cut from 3mm Acrylic.
 
I have uploaded the CorelDRAW files to Thingiverse, you can download the files and cut your own :) |

I've been a Ren & Stimpy fan for ages. One of the funniest characters was Mr Horse. So I had a crack at making a Mr Horse rubber stamp :)

After a year of work saving and planning, on Friday my 'secret project' arrived - imported directly from the manufacturer in China. A 60w Laser Engraver/Cutter. The delivery driver placed it at the end of my driveway and departed.
The first thing was - OMG! It's huge! The pictures on the Internet really don't convey how big this thing is!
No, it's not a mail-order bride called Cathy
More photos after the jump! |

Since the start of the year, I've been working on several projects. One of those projects is currently sitting on the back of a boat, due to dock in Melbourne on Friday! In fact, it's on this boat, the Safmarine Meru:
According to the Customs agent, I should take delivery in about a week's time. So, what's in the box? |
