This Russian V8 Sidecar Motorcycle looks amazing. There is no gas miser engine here, the big beefy V8 engine is sure to provide all the power you can handle and then some!

All it takes is 1600 volts and a bit of
I love complex machines that take lots of complex technology to perform a simple task. This Nickel-O-Matic Robot waits for a coin and then uses tons of servos and stepper motors to print a cool message on a wooden token.
