How to make nerf guns better
I liked that they listed all of the products that you have to get to make the mod

Well written
well done and humourous intro. I so wish that more technical project type books were as well done as this one.

Encourage the kids to tinker
I really like the author's approach of "it's good to tinker". Far too often we do not encourage our kids to "just try". My son has not built the blaster yet so i can't comment on how good it is or how clear the guidance is. However, I've scanned it and the structure of the book appears to be excellent, breaking down the big problem into small manageable and interesting experiments.

Good Resource
I read this book in about 20 minutes and realized that i probably wont be building one of these but the information is very valuable!

A really fun read; look forward to my own blaster project
I didn't really expect to read this book from cover to cover in one sitting. I did simply because it is a really fun book to read.Written in exuberant style, it is one part instruction manual, one part autobiography of creative evolution, and three parts shout of encouragement to new tinkerers and old geeks (TLSF Death Blossom!!!). I look forward to giving my copy to a 10 year old neighbor who loves to build stuff and loves graphics and games. I don't think his little sister will thank me for setting him up to build a fully robotic Nerf launcher, but this project is such a great blend of fun and learning that it will be worth it.On technical note, this book is also a great little introduction to the wide range of capabilities in the "Processing" programming language. Prior to this, I thought of Processing only as the basis for the Arduino IDE. This book has opened my eyes to lots of new possibilities to use Processing to knit together all kinds of software/graphics/physical computing projects.
