Here’s some more behind-the-scenes testing, this time with the new DJI Osmo handheld stabilized camera. While I was in New York, I stopped by the Museum of the Moving Image–one of my favorite places to visit in NYC. (The museum has an upcoming exhibition that will feature a piece by Adam, too!) For those who’ve never been, here’s a walking tour of the museum’s “Behind the Screen” exhibition that chronicles different aspects of filmmaking. Be sure to come back next week as we start another set of Weeks of Build!
Let’s Build: 3D-Printed Steampunk Scuttlefish!
This week, we’re starting a new Tested feature. Our 3D printing and rapid prototyping expert Sean Charlesworth stops by the office to share one of his recent projects: a 3D printed steampunk scuttlefish he designed. We discuss the design and printing of this project, and assemble the pieces to make this awesome tentacled monster!

Premium: Norm Test Rides the Tesla Model X
Hey guys! We owe you a bunch of premium videos, and Will and I just filmed our next Week of Build project, with a LEGO with Friends shoot planned for next week. You’ll see those on the site starting on the 12th. In the meantime, I’ve been testing the iPhone 6S Plus, and wanted to share some of the testing with you. Here’s a video I shot in 4K and edited completely on the phone, from the Tesla Model X Launch event this past week. Hope you like it!
Tested: How the BB-8 Sphero Toy Works
We recently visited the workshop of Mike Senna, a droid builder who has made his own R2-D2 and Wall-E robots. Mike’s next project is recreating the BB-8 droid featured in Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens! We discuss what’s known so far about how BB-8 was built for the film, how a remote-controlled model could be built, and take apart a BB-8 Sphero to see if we can learn anything from the small-scale toy!
