This week on Maker Update: look ma, no jumpers, an E-Book with no strings attached, the return of the keytar, and a pinball machine with no brain.

This week on Maker Update: Getting your projects off the ground, The Maker Music festival, Robots with sucky handwriting, Bullet time, Joystick drift, and rare magnets and where to find them.

This week on Maker Update, an open source ornithopter, a self-solving Rubik’s cube, a farting baseball, a Pi piano light show, a Lithophane lamp, and turning wood on a table saw.

I recently broke down a used kid’s bike and was surprised how many cool materials I found that could be reused for other projects. Even just the parts taken from a single wheel could be reused a number of different ways.

This week, a Kalimba made from teeth, Arduino gives the Yun a second chance, hacking a greeting card sound machine, a giant button for $1, and 5 maker materials you can cut from a trash bike. This week’s Cool Tool is a Greeting Card Sound Player Module.
