This special clock uses chrome ball bearings to tell time. A central spindle counts the seconds and orders the balls to be released at the appropriate time.
The bottom row is for hours and the top two are for minutes. The Roller Clock uses four C batteries (included) or a universal power cord (not included).
A clear acrylic lid is also included in case you wish to cover the clock. A unique gift. Read the rest of this entry »

Now you can wander around the house in the middle of the night with confidence, assisted by Two Lamps.

If we were handy enough to build our own sinks, we’d build one exactly like this “The Ripple” faucet, designed by Smith Newnam, which equates relative ball movement to the temperature and amount of water flowing out.
Hot water makes the LED glow red, while cold makes it glow blue, and the two hot and cold channels mix together in the open air to make for your desired temperature. Awesome ? Definitely. Practical ? Not so much.
Just try moving that ball around without accidentally touching the scorching water. [Flickr via Yanko Design]
