I made a new...

Muffler! Its the best one i have made by far. I don't have any models at the timeand i was really bored, so i gathered up some straws and made it. It will probably go on my next project, whatever that will be...

My thumb is all bandaged up now:

looks nice dude! i was thinking for a while of doing something like that. did you have different radius straws, or did you just cut a bit out of the one for the tip? and what happened to your thumb anyways? i never heard the story...
