Make: Technology on Your Time #08: Make: Technology on Your Time Volume 08

If you like to tweak, disassemble, recreate, and invent cool new uses for technology, you'll love MAKE, our project-based quarterly for the inquisitive do-it-yourselfer.

Get ready to play when MAKE Volume 08, our "Toys and Games" issue, hits the stands. You'll learn how to build a wind-up bird that really flies, how to restore an old pinball machine, and learn the secret history of the world's best-selling computer game from Myst's co-creator. You'll also meet a well-known toy inventor and learn how to make molds and casts with MythBusters star Adam Savage.

Mark Frauenfelder is a writer and illustrator living in Los Angeles, and the editor of MAKE. He is the cofounder of the popular Boing Boing weblog and was an editor at Wired from 1993-1998.
