BOJ Build Part 2

Both BOJs have arrived at the Super Meyer Bros. household. American Science and Surplus was not kidding when they said these were boxes of junk. Think of the most useless junk you can imagine and this stuff is ten times less useless than that. All I can say is that we will have to exercise our creativity to a level it has never been before. If anyone has any project ideas, please let us know in the comments section; we’re challenging you to do the thinking so we don’t have too.

*A Super Mario Bros. game cartridge has been included in each picture for a size reference
