DIY

These days, we are spending more time in our houses/apartments than ever before (probably). If you've watched every show on Netflix, played every board game you have, and gone through every hobby you have, we have just the activity for you: making paper airplanes! And no, making paper airplanes is not just a fun thing you did in your childhood. It takes expertise and skill to make a decent paper airplane, and there are many different styles depending on which style of flying you're aiming for. We made eight different tutorials for eight styles of paper airplanes, and they're all in this list. So, go get some paper and start folding! 

If you want to see other things fly, check out these Estes model rocket launches. Or see the real thing when SpaceX's Starship had a test flight. 

Nope, not even close, but that's okay. We'd be nowhere without the world proving time and time again that it is prone to frequent bouts of complete failure. 

Paper airplanes are a cheap and easy way to have some innocent fun, but it can be hard to make one following a video. Here are some super simple GIFs to follow along if you want to make the most basic paper airplane. You won't need anything more than a flat surface and a piece of paper to make this paper airplane. 

After a less basic paper airplane tutorial? Try our moderate difficulty glider paper airplane, or see our comprehensive guide for all paper airplane styles. To see more flying objects, check out SpaceX's Starship having a test flight, or these Estes model rockets launching.

You can't fault people for their resourcefulness. But you can blame them for when their innovation is a patently stupid idea. Some ideas become OSHA enraging safety fails while others become low budget DIY solutions. It's kind of up in the air, really.

This kind of story brings us back to the days of overthinking some school physics project, only to have one kid come in with the most simple solution and actually make it work. Here are some resourceful DIY solutions that have our respect.

YouTuber Pupsi has made a following for himself creating musical instruments and making musical covers of popular songs, all out of vegetables and fruit. The best part about it is, it works, and he is extremely talented. In this, he takes several melons to create a mashup melody of All Star by Smash Mouth.

They won't even know what hit 'em. 

Cats are the best, but living with a litter box isn't exactly an aesthete's dream. Get inspired with these real projects that range from simple IKEA hacks to complex custom-designed furniture. 

Most of us don't think twice about re-using a leftover cardboard Amazon box, and usually chuck it straight in the recycling bin. But not this guy. He makes insanely cool cardboard weapons from cardboard Amazon boxes that are inspired from video games, with a hot glue gun and some scissors. And he is inspiring us. The fact that he's making these weapons - let alone out of cardboard - is mind blowing. If you're a bit of a nerd or just like clever things, check out his amazing creations below. 

You know how it is. You're sitting around with your bros or your gal pals and have the immense need to take a group selfie.

No one has a long enough arm to capture everyone.

And there's no one around who can take it for you.

And all you have is a bunch of Slim Jims.
