Ordered upholstery fabric (fake leather) for the Eames knockoff chair, plus some appropriate upholstery thread of matching color. Plan to look at a (vintage!) heavy duty sewing machine this weekend for the project, as someone will draw and quarter me if I attempt upholstery on their machine. (saw many YouTube videos of people doing upholstery with that particular machine--apparently it's pretty robust-- so it's capable of it). We'll see when I eventually get to it, but having the supplies in hand will make it possible and overcome "project friction" #random #diy #projects #sewing

Update for Further Development

This month, it was a massive month for us when it comes to the build system and Terminaux. The build system witnessed many improvements across different areas, including, but not limited to:

  • Introduction of the tools repository that any project (of course, not just C# projects, but non-C# ones, such as Node.js and Rust projects) can use.
  • The build system actually uses the vendor scripts found under the vnd directory, which increases flexibility.
  • All projects, such as Nitrocid, BassBoom, and Terminaux, now use the tools repository as a submodule instead of the project-specific build scripts.

In addition to that, we are proud to release the above repository with full documentation about how to adapt your project so that it uses this minimal and extensible build system. Then, we have actually started working on the upcoming version of Terminaux, which we will release when we feel that it’s ready for public use.

Now, we are announcing an important change to our plans for the next week. We will pause development of all projects for one week starting from March 30th as we are evaluating our plans for the coming weeks to make sure that we fulfill our promise to you. After one week, we will resume development of all projects, but we will employ different strategies to ensure high quality.

The blog will still get new articles, but we will resume normal project announcements after the one-week brownout. This way, we’ll make sure that we provide continuous updates regarding all our projects.

It’s a rare weekend when the weather is marginal and I’m sick enough I can’t go out. So I started a project I’ve been meaning to do for a long time: “refinishing” the workbench.

I built this nearly 18 years ago and the top was getting really chipped and dinged from various woodworking projects and disgusting from various bike and camping fluids. So, new top and some new internal structure and compartments as well.

Next up, reorganizing the tools on a larger peg board.
