 |
Ever since seeing This is Spinal Tap,… I wanted a Marshall Amp that could go to eleven. But given the fact that I can barely string together two chords on a guitar, I never really saw the use for one of these iconic amps in my house – until today. |

 |
Jarno Smeets is either one bad-ass geek or a bold-faced liar. This dude appears to have created one of my lifelong dreams using kite fabric and engineering prowess. Smeets has built for himself and one pair of flapping wings that apparently allow him to actually fly like a bird. I… |
