Emily @mle.bsky.social · 13/07/2026Long time, no update. This is what I've been up to: Building a tall bike out of junk bicycles I've found on the streets. 2191

Emily @mle.bsky.social · 08/06/2026I've come out of my writing hibernation to write a funky little post for @theautopian.bsky.social after witnesses a ~strange occurrence~ last week. www.theautopian.com/why-starting...theautopian.comWhy Starting A Diesel Engine Can Overpower A Force Created By The Earth Itself - The AutopianHey Autopians! It’s me, Emily, whom you might remember from a few things I’ve written here, like about how I 3D printed new rubber gaskets for my truck, or how I built an e- bike out of junk that I sc... 2205
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 08/06/2026Why would they not? lol. Let us not attribute imaginary qualities to our opposition. It's a recipe for underestimating them. 110
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 08/06/2026Ok, but you specifically said we should bring back dueling. That's not going to go well for anyone, especially people on the left, many of whom want nothing to do with guns 100
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 07/06/2026A huge swath of the right is just itching to get out their weapons and kill leftists. I don't think this would go the way you want it to. 100
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 07/06/2026Dreamt I was fencing with a woman while the song "What I Am" played in the background The woman had just been fencing against a friend of mine, and she was a cheat and a sore loser. She lost to my friend and was insulting her. When I stepped in to defend my friend, she challenged me to a duel. 150
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 01/06/2026My algorithm here broke again and now it only shows me people's pictures of plants. This is actually a huge improvement to this site. 4150
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 31/05/2026I don't recall and I'm not home right now, but yes, it's a dual transistor in a can. It's two 2n916 000
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 31/05/2026that's very cool. I tried making an LED out of a chunk of silicon carbide crystals last year, and it kind of sort of worked, but not very well 010
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 31/05/2026This has not been an in-depth study. This is my first attempt, so I have no idea if there are clay bodies that are more appropriate than others 110
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 31/05/2026there's no scooping. The clay is stamped with those traces while it's still moldable. The difficulty is glaze-firing a piece of ceramic with copper powder and ending up with conductive metal when it comes out of the kiln 150
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 31/05/2026This has been a quixotic quest for no reason other than to see if i could do it, but I did do it: I've created a ceramic circuit board with copper traces that I can solder components to. Here's a little astable multivibrator circuit running on stoneware. 1624846

Emily @mle.bsky.social · 21/05/2026no, everything shrinks by 12.5 percent when fired, at least with this particular clay body 020
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 21/05/2026sadly, it does. the 0 means "0 percent color vision," and only colorblind people can perceive it 140
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 21/05/2026I could see that improving the resolution, but not the strength. If I printed the stamp and die wheels in that orientation, they would be getting flexed along the grain whenever i emboss a letter. that seems like it would be weak 000
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 21/05/2026Final project for ceramics class, well half of it. It has a mate that's not pictured here 41465
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 20/05/2026I do have a 3D printer. It's how I made the holder for the switch. I don't think an FDM printer can create fine-enough details for this kind of thing though. I would probably need a resin printer for this 130
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 19/05/2026Did you know you can use a Dymo labeler to make a headlight symbol if you're willing to take the labeler partially apart and emboss by hand? 2401
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 18/05/2026It's a perfect day to be a cat with a semi-secret nest in the garden 1572
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 14/05/2026And here it is done! This is a wild-clay glaze and wild clay stoneware. This bowl, like my recently finished mug, is 100 percent made of materials I gathered myself, without a single store-bought or studio-supplied ingredient. I loooove how this glaze looks. 1171
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 14/05/2026Time for some progress shots. Here's the bowl as bisque ware, before firing. 130
Reposted by EmilyDarcie B @bakeitso.bsky.social · 13/05/2026Reminds me of my favorite photo of my grandfather, who was a great guy notwithstanding this depiction: 1357
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 13/05/2026Yes! It's a wood-ash glaze made of ash from a friend's potbelly stove and clay from his ranch 010
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 11/05/2026Thinking about how well a refrigerator could run on solar power alone, without a storage battery. If some space were sacrificed in exchange for thermal mass (jugs of water), how well would it keep things cold from dusk to dawn while it's unpowered? I bet pretty well, if you didn't open the door much 672
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 10/05/2026Necessity breeds practicality. The civility was because we didn't want to get into violent conflicts with people defending their homes. 010
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 10/05/2026 We didn't have computers anymore, and i thought a typewriter might be valuable for record keeping. I had to leave it behind though. It was heavy and until we had found a place to settle down, it didn't make sense to have to tote it around. 110
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 10/05/2026We had gotten pretty efficient at our jobs, but i also kept seeing other stuff i wanted to bring back, like a working typewriter. 100
Emily @mle.bsky.social · 10/05/2026If no one was living in the building, we would go to the kitchen to look for food like dried rice, beans, pasta, canned vegetables and fruit, etc, and to the bathroom to look for painkillers like NSAIDs and opioids, antibiotics, inhalers, aspirin etc. 100
