I am loving the Spock crafts! Phillip Torrone posted the coolest matzah anyone’s ever seen on the Craftzine blog. He used a laser cutter to etch Spock on matzah. Live long and prosper this Passover.

As a side note – this was our first ever reader submission! If you want some exposure for your Geek Craft, tell us about it!
More than meets the eye? Robyn Lee of Required Eating posted this picture of Optimus Prime made out of cans, taken by Matt Boulton. Apparently, there’s an annual contest in Vancouver where artists make all sorts of amazing sculptures from canned food. After the event, it’s all donated to food banks. They’ve got pictures of entries from the past four years – definitely worth a look.
Our first Weekend 10 installment is all about everyone’s favorite Star Wars droid, R2-D2.
Flickr user sugarlipscakes made this R2-D2 cake for Dave’s 30th birthday. Dave’s a lucky man.
The Contaminated posted this incredible R2-D2 case modification. Unfortunately, there’s no instructions or further information. Not that any of us mere mortals could duplicate this amazing feat of engineering anyway.
