I'd like to share some sites that I find to be great resources and DIY inspiration.
Hopefully they will be useful to you while making your ideas come to life.
Instructables
This site is incredible. It is a user-created site with shared step-by-step DIY projects. You need a Pro Account for downloading and uploading projects. But the costs are reasonable and the resources pay for themselves over and over again. You can find anything from making camping fire pistons to making your very own air-powered Star Trek style door. (and sounds exactly like the real ones)

Makezine
This site is a little more on the electronics side. It has kits you can purchase and articles on how to hack different equipment. They are better known for their magazine's on electronics, hacks, and DIYing. I'm a big fan of their Arduino, an open-source electronic prototyping platform.

Art of Manliness
This blog is pretty new to me. It's a men's interest and lifestyle site dedicated to reviving the lost art of manliness. It has a little bit of everything from how to throw a tomahawk like a mountain man to how to make your own canoe paddle.
