@trashpandacos I've always wanted one of those! Ohhh, so much fun to be had...

@beanyzilla Small problem - I'm part Scottish, from the highlands. If there were more of me, I'd have to battle them to the death. There can be only one. 😋

But really, there's lots of places that can use a spare hand, on food prep or serving or all sorts of things, if there are more mes 😊

[MKProps @MKPropsShop]

Whew. Thanksgiving week is always such a mess for me - so much cooking! But I really enjoy it, and getting food out to folks is always a good thing. Added bread takeouts to my menu this year, using measuring spoons I modeled/printed😁

Now to figure out where I was in props...

[MKProps @MKPropsShop]

@AKrCosplay Woohoo! Congrats! 😁 Now the fun part - preparing for moving 😣

@trashpandacos I just do a quick dunk to cool/clean, sometimes more if there's a lot of built up sanded material, and let it be damp when I bring the sander back into play. The sanding pads aren't made for wet sanding, though, so they will fall apart pretty quick, unlike real wetsanding paper

And I meant TPU for the rubbery work, not PETG. Ugh. Loading up for a new print and my fingers got confused.

[MKProps @MKPropsShop]

Yay, internet back. It's strange, but as soon as I ship off a prop, I usually make a spare, just in case something goes wrong. Worst case, I've got a kit ready to make a new one. Had fun with this, the bipod legs extend as a single print, and rotate using a PETG rubbery joint

[MKProps @MKPropsShop]

I was mostly worried about the friction hold for the rotation on the bipod, but it worked far better than I expected! Even though that's basically how Gundam model kits do their joints, too...

@AJLoCascio Moderna here for all doses - second dose took me down for most of the next day (felt like a head cold, run down, slept it off), and my arm was sore for the next several. Booster was similar intensity, but went away faster

[MKProps @MKPropsShop]

Oof. Got captured today to move appliances - big chest freezers, stove, etc. I tried to get the printers working for while I was gone, but a couple failed while I was away. My robot minions are not yet ready to overthrow the world, I guess...

Suddenly saw that one of my printers - in the middle of a 20 hour print - had its extruder fan stopped/jammed. Quick pause, disassemble very carefully, clean, reassemble, hit resume.. and fingers crossed that this all works

[MKProps @MKPropsShop]

I cannot believe that this is now day four of not being able to find my 9v connector terminals. I had a bag of them. I'm emptying my work area.. and still they are missing. I might have to harvest from previous projects in the short term until I can get a new delivery..

[MKProps @MKPropsShop]

@bepcosplays Ryuko, or Midnight. Both have lots of fun options..

[MKProps @MKPropsShop]

@AlexLarder @beanyzilla It totally is! My new cute and warm friend 😁
Now to make more looms and hats, and spread the cozy joy...

[MKProps @MKPropsShop]

A friend picked up a knit hat weaving loom.. thing. Wanted a bigger one, so I modeled it up and printed a test case. They handed me back a hat a few hours later, with some ideas on how to improve it. And now I look like a ski bum 😁

[MKProps @MKPropsShop]

@silverfang09 I have that and the reverse problem as well - keep hearing about movies coming out in 2022 and thinking "sheesh, far future of 2022, I'll think about that when it's closer.. wait.."
