Ask anyone who was an avid gamer in the 1990s what the greatest console game of all time is, and a vast majority will say GoldenEye on the N64. Many of us lost a good chunk of our childhood to the game’s fantastic multiplayer mode and its wonderful weaponry, including the dastardly remote mines which you can now enjoy in real life. More »
After getting teased with the trailer for Click. Print. Gun, Motherboard’s documentary on the 3D printed gun movement, we finally get to watch the whole thing. The doc takes a look at Cody R. Wilson, a 25-year-old University of Texas law student, and how he’s been building weapon parts with a 3D printer. More »
Tweaking the design of his bizarre pump-action Oreo gun, Joerg Sprave has built a smaller version designed to take office warfare to the next level (if the next level is a long two-hour talk with human resources). Made only using stuff you’d find around the office—like cardboard, glue, staples, and rubber bands—the pump-gun is able to fire euro coins, US nickels, or M5 washers. More »
Motherboard just released a trailer for Click. Print. Gun., its upcoming documentary on 3D printed guns, and you get to see a glimpse of the terrifying future that is having access to guns and gun parts that you can just click and print.

Here’s an argument to end all arguments: what’s the best weapon from a science fiction movie or fantasy movie or comic book or action flick or any type of movie where make believe weapons get invented? Is it the trusty light saber? Perhaps you’d rather trust yourself with Thor’s hammer. Or maybe even the ring from Lord of the Rings? Are you bold enough to pick Wolverine’s claws? You get the point. What’s the best weapon our human brains have ever thought of. More »
I think we’ve all had that moment sitting in front of a package of Oreos, fighting—or not fighting—the urge to try and get them all in your mouth with all due speed. Slingshot master Joerg Sprave has come up with a patently ridiculous way of upping that speed variable. So much so that you probably wouldn’t want your mouth to be the target. More »
There’s a war brewing over the use of 3D printers to make unlicensed guns and other firearms. But for the time being 3D printed weaponry is still a novelty, particularly this fully functional crossbow, which was created in a single printing pass, complete with a cleverly designed flexible working trigger.

We’ve all done our fair share of chucking paper airplanes at friends. And maybe, if you’re a real engineer, you’ve made some clever, paper-folding modifications that let your plane do a loop—or better yet actually land on target. Joerg Sparve has turned his eye towards those paper aircraft, and needless to say, the outcome can do damage. More »
You can try as hard as you want, but a set of adamantium claws are never going to spring forth from your hands. Nor will you ever be able to control the weather, fly, teleport, or read someone’s mind. The closest you’ll ever get to being a real-life X-Men is mastering this set of steel throwing cards like Gambit, minus the fireworks and bō. More »
