    Name the inventions you like or made on your own. Plus you need to say the inventor.

    SPORK

    I like the spork it has puzzled me who actually invented the spork. So many ppl claime to invent the spork but who actually did. Does anyone know?

    Here's something I made. It's not a new invention, but it is quite unique. Its basically the product of too much free time, being in the vicinity of scrap metal, and knowing how to use a wielding torch.

    Its a 3/4 inch breech, one foot long barrel, has a rear door for loading, is mounted on a spring attached sleeve for recoil absorbment, and actually works! I've fired off some stuff with this thing until I started running low on firecrackers.

    This isn't a new invention but it's a table lamp I made last year. It's potentially dangerous because it doesn't have an earth wire :sweat:

    The light shade is suppose to face the other way but the my teacher posed it like this because it hides the wire sticking out of the far pole.

    i would have to say a cheese cutter. not a wire one but one of those with the prongs at the end like a giant fork and a knife thing in the middle where alls you have to do is slide the cheese cutter across the block of cheese and it cuts wonderful slices of cheese. but i have no idea who invented it. i just think its a pretty nifty invention:D

    the bagel cutter! not a knife. But its like a hollow plastic thing that is about the size of a bagel then you push the blade in to it. When you put the bagel in it and push down.. . . TA DA it has been cut! it really isnt that cool it is just easier than a knife.:p

    I'm currently working on creating an electromagnetic pulse cannon, also known as a coilgun. I'll post some pics when we have finished the prototype model.
