For this weeks challenge I want you guys to design an awesome gadget or machine. I don't want robots, but more along the lines of everyday mundane objects made cooler, so for example you could do a steampunk coffee-machine or a futuristic pair of shoes, that sort of thing. You don't have to create a character to go with the gadget, I'll be judging solely on the gadget/ machine it's self. I'll be interested to see what you guys come up with.
As usual, no entry limit and the contest will close at midnight Saturday (blog time). The winner gets to claim a custom made item from dblade to be put into heromachine, so long as the item conforms to his prize rules, which you can find here: http://www.heromachine.com/forum/the-heromachine-art-gallery/dblades-whiz-bang-item-dispenser/. Please read the contest rules before entering, have fun and good luck.
Rules for posts, contests, and challenges that I am hosting: Original characters only, no copyrighted characters, no characters based on copyrighted characters, no characters based on RPG’s or other games. The characters must be your own design and not based on any character that might be copyrighted in any way. I have the right to delete any post that I believe crosses this line without warnings. Only post characters that you have either created for this contest specifically or you know for certain have never been entered to a contest before. If you aren’t certain, don’t enter it, because I’m not going to go back through all of the contests and check.
I realize this isn’t what you had in mind but just for fun

By resting your hands on the handlebars and using the mouthpiece to give voice commands, you can use the motion-detecting software and holographically-projected jumprope to get the cardio workout without EVEN the risk of tripping!
Here’s my futuristic battery.

Ok, I’m not really sure what to do here. Considering the usual number of finalists we have on the poll is 5 and we’ve only got 4 entries, I don’t know if I should run the poll or not. I mean, not having to do a prize for this weeks winner could give dblade a bit of time to catch up on other new items from the Whiz Bang polls he did a couple of months ago. So I’m going to leave it up to you guys. If all four of you say you want me to put up a poll by the time I open next weeks challenge tomorrow, I’ll put up a poll. But at the moment, I’m declaring this contest void, due to lack of entries. Sorry guys.
Am I too late?
Here is my steampunk guitar gun:

@QuantumCookies- technically yes, you are too late, the contest closes as soon as I do my last post. But I guess I’ll allow it as that now makes up the 5 we need for the poll.
The poll will be up shortly. Oh and if anyone is wondering, yes, the contest IS NOW CLOSED.
