Updated Back Patio with wood tiles – Jun26
We love our back screened in patio but the green “astro turf” had gotten long in the tooth. My sister Lori suggested tearing up the carpet and replace them with some IKEA Wood tiles. Luckily my sister is good at these types of projects and came over to lend a […]
G-Man Shadow Box – Using 3D printing Jun26
This one has been on my mind for a while. My “brother from another mother” Jim acquired some fantastic items for me (a long time ago) and I had them stored for way too long. I finally decided to tackle this project and designed some special 3D brackets to hold […]

Artemis II 3D print Apr26
I was so captivated by this past week’s return trip of the Artemis II Orion spacecraft. Seeing these brave astronauts complete this incredible mission brought back memories of when I was in first grade and we were all gathered in one classroom to watch the Apollo 11 splashdown. This inspired […]
More upgrades to my P2S 3D printer Apr26
One the things I love about 3D printing is that it’s a tool to help solve problems. The first issue is humidity, this is bad for filament since it’s hydroscopic (meaning it absorbs moisture) and that is bad for filament since it causes print quality issues. So I found a […]
