DESCRIPTION:
Relive tinkering with your Dad If you spent any time building technical projects as a kid with your parents, this is a wonderful gift for them: it brings back the memories of some of their proudest moments.I grew up reading "The Amateur Scientist" in "Scientific American" magazine, and built many of the projects (as well as the requisite radios and go-carts) with my Dad. Forty years later, I subscribed to Make: and realized that this is the modern successor to "The Amateur Scientist". The best mag for your brain and hands. Daniel R. Padilla If you like making stuff , or wondered how people go about inventing things, this is your magazine.I've been inspired to make all sorts of things, and have found that my kids enjoy playing with hand made things as much, or more than any toy we can buy at the store.There are also all kinds of great ideas for re-using technology.It covers everything from marshmallow guns to robots. Very entertaining and inspirational and a great supplement to a good scien. "Another excellent edition" according to Jack D. Herrington. The cover on this one is a bit deceptive since the large robot stuff is just a short article. But the rest of the magazine rocks! Great projects from simple marshmallow shooters, to a PC modded into the case of an Atari 2600, to robotic dogs and mice. There is ten solid pages on podcasting, both receiving podcasts and creating your own. If you thought the first one was great you will love this one.
