Cool Tools for Exhibits Folks
Everybody needs cool tools!
Here a few favorite websites in the "Making Things"folder of my browser bookmarks. Enjoy!
Let's start with Kevin Kelly's website, appropriately titled "Cool Tools" It's a compendium of continuously updated useful tools and techniques submitted by actual users. I always find something to stoke my gadget lust here.
Next up is Instructables a website devoted to sharing simple projects and hacks. Sort of a Web 2.0 for DIY geeks. Big fun!
Last is a one-trick pony called "This to That (Glue Advice)" It's just two simple pull-down windows that let you choose which material you want to glue to another material. CLICK and it gives you suggested adhesives (with links.)
Am I missing one of your favorite sites?
Let me know, and I'll include it in a future posting.
