Make, anything you want with everything you've got!

A friend told me about Make - He loves this magazine, which seems to be a portal into a vast world of creativity and techno-adventures in the language of GREEN: Recycle and Reuse.

I'm giving Make to my husband for his birthday. I call him Baron of Gray Matter, because he is not only very intelligent, an extremely good problem solver, but also a renaissance man, who can build and create anything he puts his mind to. He grew up reading Boy Mechanic - 1000 Things for Boys to Do. He keeps a 1915 edition on the shelf above his desk at home. Make is the perfect gift, for a man or woman like this!

As a subscriber, not only do you receive a hard copy of Make four times a year, but you have access to the digital version. Online, Make provides blog space, forums, podcasts, projects and a store.

Got kids? Make has great DIY projects like building a Blubber Bot or a Lightning Globe. Projects are a great way to teach them about being resourceful, solving problems, and green living.

DIY projects for almost anyone

For those who like to take things apart and make something new, this zine is for you. You can save a lot of money (and help the environment) by making some items yourself. The features range from the high-tech to the downright silly, and they have a separate website for projects and instructions anyone can upload themselves. http://www.instructables.com/
