Mostly finished. First time I tried to turn it right side out one of the seams came completely apart, there's others that might follow suit under load, we'll see.
The cardinal cracks me up. I feel an urge to fill it with sunflower seeds and bike to parks and feed birds!

This just tickled my funny bone today. Hubby and have started a daily blood pressure tracking thing. I leave our BP machine on the breakfast table.

We started using a melon, from the fruit bowl, to rest our arms on to raise them up to heart level.

Today Hubby told me he was 3D printing something to use as an arm rest.

Me. So we can eat the melon now then. :)

Also, LOL that he is looking for any excuse to 3D print things. :) #MarriedLife #3DPrinting

Hey #MiniaturePainting peeps, how do you feel about the different paint #storage solutions and what different sizes of bottles do you end up with.

I'm finally working on getting back to it after *many* years, and am trying to prep and get set up. Aside from general #craft paint 59ml bottles I've grabbed a Vallejo bottle and one of the squat GW citadel base ones for reference.

Saw some #3DPrinting solution in a recent video, but I think I need to design my own.

Thinking about getting into #3dprinting. Kid has multiple friends who have some of various levels and quality and has been learning Blender and is excited by the idea. And PLA is compostable in Seattle which removes some of the waste concern. What nice but not super advanced printers do you like?

First print came out well, though there's definitely some accuracy issues with my printer. Small enough to ignore for now but the lines are becoming more inconsistent. Maybe the gear that drives the filament needs replaced, it's about the only part that hasn't been. Maybe I'll treat myself to a new FDM printer for Christmas. This is from my defence walls set so there's about 6 more days of printing #3dprinting #wargaming

I finally finished this custom USB Controller using a 12 position switch. The customer will be using it as a USB MIDI Controller where they want to select 11 different settings.

It's a bit taller than I'd like but the switch is pretty tall and I need a certain amount of space for the PCB and controller.

The enclosure is 3D printed and so is the knob. The multi-color prints for both came out great.

This sculpt is taken straight from her e1 art, but damned if I'm going to get her eyes bright green when they're this fucking small. I also couldn't paint her tiny-ass ID badge or the text on her right sleeve, because there is NO access to that.

And before you ask, I have the dancing shoes so she can deploy on high ground.

@jubei @504DR @gerrymcgovern A *very* unsophisticated search for shark vacuum brought up these parts for #3dPrinting printables.com/model/888803-re

Of course I can’t know if these are anywhere near what you’re looking for.
Either way, there is many parts and accessories available if you have access to a 3d printer.

A more elaborate search is likely to yield better results. Or design your own spare parts and share.

My custom version of a painter's point. I have a bunch of the traditional ones, and they work great for panels and wider workpieces, but are almost useless for narrow workpieces.

When I was making my grandson's crib, I took a few furring strips and drove a bunch of drywall screws through them pointing upward for finishing the spindles. They work reasonably well, but aren't very flexible.

These should work great for smaller workpieces.
