Projects from the ninth chapter of The Best of Instructables Volume 1.
Shunning store-bought items for handmade, this maverick community of crafters believes in making things themselves, by whatever means necessary. Frequently, hefty ideas are constrained by thin wallets, limited tool sets, and modest materials, leading to a resourcefulness and flexibility that can rival a highly trained Navy SEAL.
With equal parts independent thinking, unconventional materials, and highly unorthodox methodologies, crafters on Instructables create objects that are both useful and personally meaningful. It's this tendency towards extreme personalization that makes a trip to Instructables such a treat.

So, the book itself is currently only available via the interweb, right?

Well, it is online, via places like MakerShed or Amazon, but you can probably find it in local book stores too. If not, I'm sure they could get it.

And you get a patch for buying it and taking a picture of yourself with it, right? What if I'm a sociopath and don't want anyone to see my face...?
