Bamboo Motorcycle Seat

I've built a couple of things out of Bamboo such as a blow dart, and a spear to hunt Cane Toads, but never a tail section for a Custom. This guy built one one strand of bamboo at a time, laminating, fibreglassing and finally buffing it to the fine masterpiece you see below.

I've no doubt that he won't have a problem with strength as bamboo is the equivalent of natures carbon fibre.

It took a total fo 200 hours which equates to about 10 weeks of work if you remove morning teas / lunch / afternoon tea and water cooler chat.

Life Paint

The Swedes invent some cool things, this time Volvo have created a brand new way to decrease the number of pedestrian accidents occurring on our roads.What they call Life Paint is a reflective spray paint that can be applied …With Volvo being renowned for their owners being some of the slowest and most cautious on the road (In Australia it was often an insult to be called a volvo driver) and the company priding itself on safety it's no surprise they are the brand behind it.
