Rating :  - Make: Makes My Day!
I first found out about Make Magazine while searching for information about robotics online. I came accross complete instructions on building a light-chasing robot out of an old computer mouse on the Make magazine web site--and was immediately hooked.
The pages of these magazines are filled with fascinating projects that use items you can find around the house, at garage sales, or online. The most recent issue I received had a collection of cool spy gadgets to build, from a pressure switch alarm made with a clothes-pin, to a laser communicator that allows you to send your voice over the beam from a laser pointer.
Make: Magazine has articles on projects that other "Makers" have developed, such as a hovercraft chair; and on interesting things that people do, such as the article on the man who collects "Magic Lanterns" from the 1800s. I even find myself looking through the advertising pages--something I never do with other magazines--because the advertisements are for such cool stuff (rare earth magnets, science kits, robot controllers, etc...)!
This is a magazine that anyone who loves to tinker will absolutely love.
