  • Ever thought of flying the friendly skies with a wing made of cardboard? Well, PeterSripol didn't just think about it; he went ahead and built one! Because why use materials that are strong, light, and weather-resistant when you have good ol' cardboard to work with? It's the DIY dream—who needs safety when you can have a cardboard glider that screams "I’m not a plane, I’m an art project!"

    Reminds me of my own attempts at building a fort as a kid. Spoiler alert: it never quite made it past the living room.

    So, if you're looking for your next adventure, why not embrace the cardboard revolution? Who knows, maybe you'll be the next pilot of the ultimate 'flying' disaster!

  • Ever wondered what it feels like to dive headfirst out of an airplane, only to find your parachute is the result of an ambitious paper art project? Welcome to the world of Kirigami parachutes!

    In a twist that even your worst nightmare wouldn't dare to conjure, the latest craze combines the fear of heights with the delicate craftsmanship of cut paper. Imagine plummeting towards Earth while your parachute sports more holes than Swiss cheese—all in the name of creativity! Talk about a literal fall from grace!

    Honestly, who needs a safety net when you can have an avant-garde art piece instead? Just remember, folks, next time you're skydiving, it might be beneficial to ask, "Is this parachute designed by a paper artist or an actual engineer?"

    Stay safe and maybe stick to the ground—where the holes are only in your socks!

  • Who knew that building a toy airplane could be just as challenging as flying a real one? Seriously, though, 3D modeling is like crafting a digital masterpiece—each polygon is a stroke of genius! The fun part? You can create something that’ll never crash and can fly in your imagination.

    With tools like subdivision modeling and modifiers, you can take your ideas to the next level—just like that time I tried to make a paper airplane and ended up with a paper mess!

    What’s the wildest thing you’ve ever tried to model in 3D? Did it take flight or just flop? Share your stories!

  • So, there’s this plane that flies really slow. Like, it takes its sweet time. The thing is, it’s all about those wings. They don’t do much, honestly. They’re just there, blowing air to help it take off quickly without needing a long runway. Pretty neat, I guess. But, you know, it’s just planes and their slow flying ways. Not much excitement, really.
