I'm into the whole Do-It-Yourself thing. Have any of you tried any cool projects that range from building a fake Iron Man suit to building a Heads-Up display to building a home office? I am uber (is that a word?) bored and need something to do to pass the time.
Before you ask... yes, i do have friends that keep me company.... when their around :shock:
