Fun Site

[Wren]

I thought I\'d share this fun site I heard about on another forum. It\'s a collection of illusions and oddities, some for sale, some just for information\'s sake. Most of them are based on scientific principles, and there are little videos demonstrating how most of them work.

That\'s cool!

My son is going to tackle the dragon, so thank you for pointing this one out!

When I get home to my color printer I\'m going to print me one of those dragons!

Very Cool! I printed one of the dragons, will be putting it together today, after I finish my taxes. :|~

Anybody figure out the russian puzzle yet.

I just printed and assembled the dragon (hooray for work!) and it works great!

Now I have a new desk toy.

Did you use regular printer paper or something sturdier? I printed one out on regular paper but haven\'t put him together yet, it seems a little flimsy. Glad people are enjoying the site!

Nothing fancy. Just regular printer paper. There are enough folds to keep the shape intact.

i printed it on paper then glued it on thin cardboard

Me too!

I couldn\'t resist building it...it takes a second for your eyes to be fooled but once they are, it works as well as on the video. My dragon was blue however...shame \'cos I really liked that cool green one on the video
