✍🏻 Interested in 3D digital sculpting? Some friends have been interested in getting started with Nomad Sculpt, so I did an impromptu livestream yesterday on Twitch to introduce the interface and tools that I use frequently. I've lightly edited & shared part of it on YouTube: youtu.be/kv3ooFBhrg8

I was asked about all the recent Instagram reels I've been posting, THINKING I was spending a TON of time downloading my VODs and editing them in DaVinci Resolve. So I shared how I've been making these clips on Twitch and made it into a YT video: youtu.be/7MCo4ZNlbjc Enjoy! #twitch

My first print with the @snapmaker U1! The U1 came with black, white, red, and yellow filament (500g spools), so I decided to print a white Glizzy! 🌭🦎 Expect more variations of Glizzy to be printed on my U1 -- what toppings should I add next?

Looking back, I seem to have created a pattern, and I don't like it. Number of YT videos published: 2023: 8 2024: 6 2025: 4 In 2026, I'm determined to break the pattern and beat last year's numbers. I'm aiming for 18 new videos in 2026. Watch me.
