Free Fonts From Japan

Japanese Fonts

 These are a true jem, you can never have too many fonts.

In the first half of 2005, the Fontleech blog was offering an almost daily portion of links to and reviews of quality free fonts. Among them, a lot of Japanese ones. Since the Summer however, Fontleech hasn’t really been updated anymore, and comment spam is slowly taking over the place. As I’m afraid the site may go offline one day on another, I decided to reproduce its links to Japanese type foundries with free fonts, and added some of my own links too. Here we go, in no particular order:

Camera Coil-Gun

Coilgun 

Now this is the sort of project I can sink my teeth into. What do you get when you cross a disposable camera flash with a bit of wire, and steel BB’s? A coil gun! Yeah… That’s the good stuff. Jeff provides plans and links to build your own weapon of choice. Have fun and be safe, if you can do the two at the same time. If not you can go as a pirate for next Halloween.

Soviet Underground Submarine Base

Underground Soviet Sub Base 

Someone was kind enough to post a bunch of photos of a once secret underground sub base in Russia. Loks like a cool place to wonder around in, reminds me of the video game Quake.

[A word of warning. The owners of the site must have added a bunch of them when people started to link to their page. Bad practice if you ask me. The images show up but it takes time. Make sure you have your popup settings set and all that before you click on the link. -John]
