I'm working on uploading a daily, or approximately daily, video from my webcam to YouTube. I think it will be most interesting when the weather turns ugly but could be entertining otherwise.
At least I hope so ...
I have been unhappy with my older Foscam camera. It wasn't bad exactly but the night-time performance wasn't the best any more. The images were really fogged and indistinquishable. So I went looking for a new one.
I settled on Amcrest as a brand. They had recently bought out Foscam (I think) and had a wide range of affordable and not-so-affordable cameras.
One of the items that I am most proud of designing and yet is extremely simple is my Vertical Tube Holder.
This will help organize your tubes of medicine or toothpaste in your medicine cabinet. There are two size suitable for most tubes you can find. Or just resize one of these to fit whatever tube you have.
I'm taking a leap of faith here and enabling comments. I do have a couple of way to reject bot comments that seems to be working well. But comments are new here and we'll have to see if they are effective.
Hopefully the experiment doesn't end up like this!
rigid.ink, the UK premium filament manufacturer, has just publish the The Ultimate 3D Print Quality Troubleshooting Guide 2018. This new guide covers in detail 44 different and common printing problems. Well illustrated and very readable, it describes the causes and potential solutions for all of these issues.
I have already come up with some small changes that I want to try on my next print.
Give it a look ...
I'm a puzzle guy. And this one looked like fun. I also had a few grams of "free" sample from rigid.ink. I say it that way because I had to pay shipping from the UK to get it. But that's OK, I got 34 grams of bright green PLA to play with.
Another bit of history.
Trans World Airlines was originally called Transcontinental & Western Air. This advertising plaque was in my father's collection of memorabilia.
I came across this signboard that my father used when he was captain of a flight. This was probably used on the Douglas DC3 and Lockheed Constellation aircraft as by the time he got into jets I don't think they were used any more.
A friend of my son's was going to a comic convention where Nolan North was to appear. My son wanted to make a 3-D printed Ghost with a Deadpool styled face. The friend was to ask Nolan to sign it. What I made had an Adafruit Circuit Playground within it that I programmed with a light show and some small audio clips of Nolan's phrases.
