In this special gadgets issue, we show you how to make a menagerie of delightful machines: a miniature electronic Whac-a-Mole arcade game, a tiny but mighty see-through audio amplifier, a magic mirror that contains an interactive animated soothsayer, a self-balancing one-wheeled Gyrocar, and the Most Useless Machine — the creepy mechanical box whose only purpose is to turn itself off (as seen on The Colbert Report!). Plus: how Intellectual Ventures made their incredible laser targeting mosquito zapper, how to use the industrial-strength microcontrollers called PLCs, and a lot more.

Hi, I was wondering …
Hi, I was wondering, I have an old broken Yamaha DX7 synth, European model. Do you know if there is a way that I can modify the keyboard so I can still use it for my computer? I mean, I want to work my way around the broken electronics from the DX7 because I don’t know how to repair it. I only want to use the keys so I can play the sound fonds from my computer, if that’s possible at all. I’m not an electronics expert, but I’m able to replicate or make things
