He comes up with some interesting contraptions, though as exemplified by that steering mechanism, it doesn't come close to being engineered, just slapped together with things not sized right or protected from being corrupted or injuring someone (like his kids). I liked the episode on his developing a better propeller using his 3d printer, but ultimately, it looked seriously undersized and not engineered. Any comments on how loud his drive sounds in that video?
Scary that he's out there living on his 2 little zero-elevation private islands off the coast of Panama with wife and 2 young kids, miles from anyone else…I'm sure it's a long way to a hospital---hope they don't need it.

I've watched this guy build three different solar boats episode by episode over the last three years. The shark slicer is just his latest creation. He's built a bunch of wild robot creatures too. He does some crazy things with PVC, fiberglass, and metal pieces.
Right now he's working on a solar powered bulldozer creation.

Sorry I couldn't come up with a snappy acronym this lovely Mardi Gras morning. Anyway I have been following this guy's projects and progress off and on for a while now, and maybe some of you already do, too, but maybe some of you will find this entertaining.
