Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories’ builds a 555 chip you may rest your feet on

A 555 timer chip might possibly be pretty versatile so far as integrated circuits go, but if it involves helping you’re taking a load off, well, it is a little… small. The other is correct of this version built by the folk at Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories , however, which makes up for what it lacks in transistors and silicon with some first-class foot-resting abilities. Better of all, the lab has provided a complete guide for building your own — that includes the use of a CNC machine and laser etching, although it could also be built the old fashioned way pretty easily (or scaled up to coffee table size, for that matter) if you’re so inclined.
