The Furbeowulf cluster. “Surprisingly, the Furby CPU can be overclocked significantly, with a corresponding boost in computing power. The biggest problem, however, is that of cooling, because for some reason the units are covered with an insulating fuzzy layer that encourages the buildup of heat rather than enhancing cooling like a standard aluminum heat sink would have.”

That guy has a sweet workshop/lair setup. I must admit considerable envy.

I’m surprised he hasn’t been featured on BB before. The dude is full of immense talent and creativity. Synth bikes, Jacobs Ladder synths, instructional videos on cheap and easy circuits, and on and on.

An evening on his YouTube channel is one of the most inspiring ways to spend an evening if you are into DIY electronics.
