Plastic is horrified to learn it is disposable support material.

A rectangular bracket is being 3D printed. The support structure for holes in the side resembles a screaming face.

The voidcats have picked up on my exhaustion from a week of cycling after several months off, and joined me in solidarity. Thordis Longleap is between my feet and Snorri Silvermane has taken up station on my desk chair

A photo take by Kit lying on her back showing one leg with a black cat in between Kit’s bare legs. A wardrobe is in the background and an enormous cardboard box that contained a kitchen sink and has been retained as a cat castle. An armless black office chair opposite the bed holds another black cat. The photograph has been pretty brutally processed to try and bring up the voidcats in a dark room.

Stop wriggling human, or i will be forced to use the death ray.

An attempt to photograph the belly up repose of sleeping cat misfired when the flash triggered. Cat is looking g at camera with glowing green eyes.

How is it #FFFriday already? Until right now I thought it was #FuckYourRulesThursday. Add coffee until braining occurs.

First ride with a new (to me) water bottle. How do i get the cap off? Oh, you’re supposed to bite then suck. Not sure if squicked out or wondering if they make larger sizes…😳

When the spout of this water bottle is squeezed a slit in the tip opens. No squeeze, no drink.

Ooof. If you know what a DB9 is your back may ache. If you just soldered 80 of them, it’s hecken rooted, gurl.

A bin full of 80 hand soldered DB9 loopback connectors. Another 80 to go with resistors instead of wires. And yes i know DB9 isn’t the official name.

When life gives you solder burns you make moggies.

A polyester blouse has had iron-on kittens placed over two holes caused by splashing molten solder. This is why we wear lab coats, girls.

@metaning are you interested in commissions for works in steel? A client has asked do I know anyone who can make a miniature scale model for display of their ornamental garden product

Respawn toasted sandwiches for lunch because the rest of my family likes bourgeois font-abuse bread

Slices of one inch thick bread being cut in half to make sandwiches. The packaging features at least 8 different fonts.

Okay, I am ready to try replacing the lightning port assembly which goes UNDER the main logic board. Tomorrow. There is no guide for this procedure, I have proceeded, Wile-E-Coyote-Like, right off the edge of the Mesa of Sanity and am about to find the bottom of the Casm of Hubris.

A very disassembled iPhone which, 42 parts in (or out!), is not yet disassembled enough to replace a broken charging port.

Pausing, as you do, to construct a driver to fit a never before encountered Bizarro Apple Screw◽. As possibly the world's only roboticist jeweler hacker, I am up for this.
