How to super clean your vehicle’s engine bay

Whenever I’ve gone to a vintage car show, I’ve often wondered how they get their engines so sparkling clean. Now I know! This comprehensive how-to video from YouTuber ChrisFix shows exactly how to wash, and then detail, your vehicle’s engine bay. It takes about two hours, from start to finish, to get your engine super-shiny clean. I think his “before and after” engine bay photos are particularly satisfying. Note to self: Keep this video handy for your post-Burning Man engine-cleaning needs. ( digg )

A ‘Roomba’ for weeds

The inventor of the Roomba robot vacuum, Joe Jones, has come up with something new: a solar-powered weeding robot called the Tertill. It will patrol your home garden daily looking for weeds to cut down. How does it know what’s a weed and what’s a plant? Tertill has a very simple method: weeds are short, plants are tall. A plant tall enough to touch the front of Tertill’s shell activates a sensor that makes the robot turn away. A plant short enough to pass under Tertill’s shell, though, activates a different sensor that turns on the weed cutter. Get your own weed-killing robot for $249 through the Tertill’s Kickstarter .
