As you may have seen on Channel 5's The Gadget Show, David Ackroyd (who's brainchild is this web site) has been involved in quite a few of their builds: building a soapbox racer in three days and the Ultimate gadget Chair, to name but a few.

David is often seen on the screen beavering away in the background, screwdriver or wrench in hand working on these gadgets..

Anyway, here are a few links to The Gadget Show's gadgets:
