Plan B Fotokopierer: Turn an Expensive Copier into a Cheap Camera
The result of what appears to be some sort of student design project, the "Plan B Fotokopierer" is an accordianesque lens that clips to the scanning platform of a standard office-grade photocopier, turning it into the world's largest (and crappiest) Polaroid. At the least, it'll allow office pranksters to take candid shots of their anuses without risking a fall through a shattering plate of glass.
