Pre-winter break means it's boat time! Print time under 1 hr, aiming for the highest number of pennies before sinking. @PerkiomenSchool

Two spooky words for you today:
Drone ghost

More to come @PerkiomenSchool

[Allison (Bishop) Rodgers @growAllison]

My advisees are weird and delightful, y'all.

It works! I tweaked Berkus' design a bit to fit my cylindrical extruder, but extruding tubes is incredibly satisfying!

a new design for hollow extruder dies https://t.co/SnR6pTq2nc Thanks, @fuzzychef!

[Allison (Bishop) Rodgers @growAllison]

@PancakeBot @PerkiomenSchool Yes, exactly! They're getting better each time, and snacks are good motivation for us all 🥰

[Allison (Bishop) Rodgers @growAllison]

Maddox was PSYCHED that he got to take the Eiffel tower pancake. Working on speed/pressure settings on the @PancakeBot but it's going well! @PerkiomenSchool

[Allison (Bishop) Rodgers @growAllison]

@PancakeBot @PerkiomenSchool I'm going to pretty confidently say that both of those things did not happen 🤣 - we've got some new folks operating the machine and it's been a learning process for them!

[Allison (Bishop) Rodgers @growAllison]

I got to make buttons for @BannedBooksWeek
Thanks, Ms. Sweeney! @PerkiomenSchool

[Allison (Bishop) Rodgers @growAllison]

Simon finished his Jitterbug!
I love seeing different folks come to work on their soldering each week during club time!

Tiny @PerkiomenSchool Panther pancakes coming soon to a @PancakeBot near you!

[Allison (Bishop) Rodgers @growAllison]

It's a printer build day! Luke, Grace, and Sam are working on their @Creality3dP Ender 3s!

My Additive Manufacturing class teamed up to make two chess sets! One group's silver pieces play their upside-down black counterparts. Queen (of England) and Rook (Empire State Building) pictured.

Please say hello to Brynn's giant frog. I love him.

Ok, so were college recs more or less stressful to write before word processing software?

Because getting to edit them again and again without having to retype is great! ...but not so great for deciding when they're done

[Allison (Bishop) Rodgers @growAllison]

@PancakeBot @PerkiomenSchool I'm sure we could! They just started griddling them by hand to feed the masses 😂

[Allison (Bishop) Rodgers @growAllison]

Innovation Center managers Anya, Kaya, and Liza (not pictured) are making pancakes for @PerkiomenSchool this morning! The @PancakeBot is working great - but we jumped to circles to feed more folks faster!

[Allison (Bishop) Rodgers @growAllison]

@PerkiomenSchool It's a book about? From? The TV show gravity falls, and there's a secret letter from one of the characters inside @gravityfa (@TheMysteryofGF ?)

Colin has decided it's not Caesar cipher, but Vigenere. They're meeting up later to keep working on it

[Allison (Bishop) Rodgers @growAllison]

Chloe's book has a section that we're pretty sure is in Caesar cipher. Colin is teaching her to code in Python to automate decoding it! @PerkiomenSchool

[Allison (Bishop) Rodgers @growAllison]

I have a lot of joy from the @PerkiomenSchool Institutes Fair chaos that just happened -- knowing that Ty managed to get his K'nex pinball machine in the loading dock and into the dining hall & let folks play is *chef's kiss*
