.50 Caliber Bottle Opener

Written by topgear. Posted in Gadget

For guys who like guns, beer, and awesome!

Opening a beer with your teeth is certainly manly. But losing a tooth in the process will only be met with jeers and laughter.

So, avoid the situation entirely and use your .50 Caliber Bottle Opener to get the job done right (and without massive periodontal fees). Let’s put it this way: if snipers can use this round to take out bad guys from over 1.4 miles away, I’m sure it can handle opening your brew.

Compleat Cup

Written by topgear. Posted in New Technology

Startup Radically Reinvents The Disposable Coffee Cup, Eliminating Plastic Lids

Called Compleat, the all-paper design has a built-in lid with sipping spout.

I buy many cups of coffee and habitually cringe when reaching for a plastic lid. It’s pretty hypocritical to make a point of avoiding Styrofoam, only to slap a petroleum disc on a paper cup. (And yes, I know that carrying a travel mug would obviate the issue.) Fortunately a designer named Peter Herman has come up with a greener, all-paper disposable cup that folds closed like a takeout container to form a sipping spout.

Herman spent two years of his spare time–he’s an architect at the Cambridge, Massachusetts, firm Ellenzweig–and made close to a hundred prototypes in the process of refining the folding design he calls Compleat.
