Dick's Gadget Warehouse & Another Viewer's Video. Plus how to submit yours!


Our viewer video of the week started with the email below. It's a bit of a cheat, but we're calling it this week's Gadget Warehouse Video, because in a few years, it WILL be warehouse-worthy! But for today, it's cutting edge.
Hi Folks,
I thought I'd submit a little video about my favourite gadget, which is my Solidoodle 2 3D printer. Video is here:

In the video I briefly describe and show the process of producing a raised version of the TWiT logo in ABS plastic. One thing I forgot to mention in the clip is that the entire print process took about 45 minutes (shown as a time-lapse in the video).
Thanks for The GizWiz and all the shows on TWiT -- some of the best viewing on any screen these days.
Best, Blair Vessey / Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada

We'd love to include your video in an upcoming Giz Wiz Show. Here's what we're looking for: Your home made Videos -- two to three minutes long - in the any of the following categories:
I bought a piece of crap! Did you buy something you ended up hating? We won't get you a refund, but we might be able to give a platform to vent your disappointment. Remember, "family friendly" language applies.
I Invented This! Did you invent something? (Or did a friend or relative invent something.) We can't market it for you, but we can help get the word out. Show us what it is, and how it works. Even if it's a prototype, you can get our (and the audience) reactions.
My Gadget Warehouse! Okay, so you don't have a warehouse. It doesn't matter. Just tell us about your favorite old gadget(s). When and where you bought it, and why you're still hanging on to it.
My favorite gadget of all time! Show us what it is, tell us what it does and why you love, or loved it! It can be something you just bought too.
Post them on YouTube and send our producer, Jason, the link! We'll do the rest. (Or possibly nothing, but that's unlikely.) Remember, videos should be just 2 to 3 minutes long, 4 MAX! Low production value is fine. Even welcomed! That way our stuff doesn't look bad by comparison. We've set the bar low. Don't trip over it.
NEW! NEW! NEW! If we select and show your video on The Giz Wiz you will now be awarded with some sort of prize. It's Leo's way to get rid of all the "crap from Sky Mall" he's collected. So there's one more (so-so) reason to send in your video!
