I didn’t line them up very well and my lighting isn’t very good but I’m chuffed with the print quality! Points for naming the dude in the top one 🤔

I had no idea about the story behind this brain worm of a song! From the thread, turns out the story has a nice ending www.stutteringhelp.org/btos-song-un...

" It is compelling that their former manager, the famous Gary Bachman, got on top of his stuttering through speech therapy and for many years has been a highly successful realtor in his hometown of Winnipeg "

I tried it. Needing to wear glasses was a problem, I couldn’t make out what was happening and I didn’t want to keep wasting money on immediate game over 😭

Itch needs more granular detail for this disclosure, for now I assume it means "I asked the machine and this is what popped out". Which is fair enough (within certain limits) if that's what tickles you, but charging for an ai conversion of someone else's IP using the original game assets?

I have been experimenting with my own UV printer for keycaps. Just want to make sure my ink doesn't rub off with use so investigating adhesion helpers and spray varnish. Partly so I can make a mechtrum-ish zx80/81 with my @tynemouthsoftware.co.uk Minstrels :)

Found pics of my old 3d printed R2 robot. I expect it went in the bin during our big 🇨🇦 → 🇬🇧 move.

It's so weird to see stuff from my childhood as museum exhibits next to things that in my mind are legitimate museum pieces. This is the Domesday Project BBC Master and laser disk setup at @tnmoc.bsky.social

Finally printed but I should have used dowels instead of push fit. Now I’m gonna have to glue it 🤦‍♂️

Turns out using OpenSCAD your Makerworld models can be tweaked using a gui customiser like the old Thingiverse did :) Adding Arduino enclosure customiser now makerworld.com/en/@makerhacks
