Pretty awesome 3D printed stuff!
And they never mention 3D printing...
A sign of the technical times.

Pretty cool gears !
All the physical examples would make interesting mechanical mobiles.

Just to defend the graphic artists out there, they're artists not engineers ;)

That's why they can do this. They don't "know" it won't work.

KFC and Buffalo Wild Wings are rumored to be funding clone research based on chicken fossils in China. One set has 4 wings, the other 6 legs. Isnt science wonderful! LOL.

"Rumored" What else can they get out of chicken? It would be stupid to modify any strain a drastic way when it is in perfect balance. Chickens are such a gift to humans and they are so different already, I wouldn't support an aberration of Nature.

Um. the winged fossil exists, but it was sarcasm, in case you missed it.
