Firing up the v1.0.0 backyard pizza oven for the first time, I guess I went too hot too fast. Fortunately I can scavenge another rock from work and try again.

So years ago I got some stretchy ribbon stuff from a PT I was going to. It's kind of gross now and not as bouncy. I clearly need some new stuff. But where to get decent ones? There's a PT down the street from me but it's, I think, over priced. $5 Below sells it but, I think, it's probably trash. Where does one find some huge rubber straps for a good price outside of a bdsm dungeon (and i only ask because I want green and red, not black).

So I come from a 3d printing background and the whole idea of sharing is pretty prevalent there. It's kinda odd to me that there isn't a community based around sharing digitized art for embroidery. Or is there one and my old-ass just can't find it? Or are there enough other people here to share with? I'd love to start one by sending my Frank&Bride along.

Work in progress. It'll be a gas station style shirt with Frank on one brest and the Bride on the other. The final shirt is charcoal gray. I'm breaking needles and missing stitches but at least I'm going through a lot of thread too. Frank is in gray and purple (the Bride will be too) because those were our wedding colors. Yeah, we're that weird family that overdoes Halloween.

Hey gang. I just got a Brother machine and I was curious if that sort of thing was welcome here? Or if you all did it strictly analog?

Hey gang, I'm on the fence about ordering a Prusa Core One. I have a mk3 and love it but I'm ready for an upgrade. Anyone here have any experience with a Voron 2.4 though?

Right now I have the mk3 and a Kobra Max. The Max is OK for big stuff and I could pass on the mk3 if I got the One. But I could probably get by with just a 300x300 Voron.

My concern is that is it more a project than a go-to printer? I got a lot of that out of my system with my first printer, an AnetA8. That was more upgrading and tuning than printing. It was fun and I learned a whole lot, and I recommend a path like that to anyone interested in doing more than plug and print. But at this point I have more interest in printing than tinkering. And I still get a lot of that with the Max anyway.

But a core xy that's 300x300 does have an appeal. And the Vorons are pretty sexy looking too.

So a million years ago, back in the 1980's, we used to play Escape on rainy days when we couldn't skate. I went looking for an old copy so I could force my kids to watch the movie and play the game with me when I discovered there's a new version. Does anyone here know if the two versions are similar?

My take on the JRockett 45. It's a Malcolm Young tribute. Now I just have to learn to play like him.

Big Cheese by Lovetone clone. I added a blend knob so it'll be a little more bass friendly. Waterside decal. And a uv led.

I discovered Joy Division through an old skate video I had on VHS. I also discovered Jane's Addiction on the same tape. This was before they hit radio with Been Caught Stealing. I can't hear Disorder or Had a Dad without thinking of the other. I also found Tenor Saw through the same tape. Alva Backyard Annihilation for those that are interested.

Finally got to try etching. The pattern is the pcb layout of a classic Pi. Bonus point to anyone that can name the typeface, or at least where it came from. Man, I love these big Boss style knobs. I got a 10 pack and I'm almost out already. Next diy project is a Lovepedal Cheese clone with a dry blend add on.

I know in my last post I said I was going to do an etching on a Big Muff next, but I didn't have the right photo paper. So I tried doing a print on water slide for my GGG Brassmaster. I can say this is my second favorite fuzz but the build is not for the faint of heart.
