Who Knew LEGOs Could Be So Deadly?

Jun 26, 2010 04:00 PM

Seems just about anything can be constructed with LEGOs these days. You name it- a printer, an engine, an ATM, guns... even a house!

Miter saw on a workbench.

Dave and John Xandega's circular saw is made with LEGO bricks, but the blade is definitely real:

"She's got a Lego 9V Battery Housing and Motor from our 'Z'naps' set (and swiped a longer patch cable from our Mindstorms goodies)... she spins a REAL blade, with the carbide tips removed and the 'Pockets' rounded off. The blade slips on the axle as well, so if someone DOES try to touch it, it will stop spinning!"

This LEGO "toy" sure ain't for kids...
