Iron Throne Made from Carrots
The rabbit who got this Game of Thrones style Iron Throne is one very lucky bunny. He goes by the name of Wallace the rabbit and after getting this throne, he has probably become a real tyrant. His human made the throne for him using nothing but carrots and cardboard.
You can watch it being built in the video below. In an odd twist, it turns out that the rabbit didn’t even eat this throne. The owner says that he ate most of it. The rabbit was probably worried about being poisoned in the early days of his reign.
May House Tar-hare-yen rule for a thousand years.

Brik Case Lets You Customize Your MacBook And MacBook Airs With LEGO
In today’s mass-produced market, individuality comes at a premium. There’s a number of ways in which you can make your personal items stand out from the hordes of other identical ones out there, but the Brik Case is one of the more creative ones we’ve come across. Made for MacBooks and Macbook Airs (2013 or later), the case simply clips on to your laptop and allows you to stick any number of building blocks on it from LEGO, Mega Bloks, PixelBlocks, KRE-O, and even K’NEX! It’s fun because you can constantly re-arrange them and modify your “artwork” to your heart’s content. A $35 pledge gets you a Brik Case as well as a bag of 100 1X1 Bricks, so you can get started customizing as soon as you open the package.

Squander-less Seating
As you might’ve guessed from the name, the Economical Chair was designed to minimize industrial waste. The calculated design enables production of 4 chairs per 4′ X 8′ international standard plywood board with no losses! For its curved seat and back, mass production of these simple shaped standard chairs can be achieved through a plywood bending technique. The result is cool, clean, conscious style!

Amazon’s Dash Button Lets You Re-order Everyday Stuff At The Press Of A Button
Amazon is all about eliminating as much friction between your wanting a product, and them delivering it to your doorstep; the more seamless and unintrusive the process is, the more likely you are to make the company money. Their latest effort in that field is the Dash Button, which lets you re-order everyday household items by simply pressing the button on a little dongle. Offered by invitation only to Amazon Prime members, the button is setup through the Amazon app, and connects to your WiFi. If you’re doing the laundry and you see you’re running low on detergent for example, simply press it; you’ll then be get a notification on your phone allowing you to either cancel, or continue your order. It’s a smart idea, and comes on the heels of a previous gadget, the Dash, which was a Wifi enabled barcode scanner. We’re not sure how popular that device became, but there’s a feeling Amazon is testing the waters with a lot of these things, and we wouldn’t be surprised if at least some of it eventually stuck as a normal, ubiquitous ordering mechanism amongst shoppers.
