X-Wing reinforcements
With the holidays, I managed to expand my X-Wing collection by a little bit. Admittedly there are a lot more ships currently available, but I am trying to limit myself to only old-school settings – I have limited interest in either the Prequel or Sequel forces. Specifically, I am only collecting Empire, Rebellion, and Scum…
Watch Tower Assembly

by
Over the holidays, thanks to the new printer, I managed to finally finish printing the various individual pieces for the Watch Tower project. The last big piece was the roof tile – all one single piece and a rather long print. With my old printer, I just didn’t trust it enough to risk that length…
Norm, the goblin rogue
New printer, new projects. The first such major effort is a re-attempt at printing custom miniatures for our gaming group’s Pathfinder stories (and potentially others). With the old printer, this was not a practical option – the resolution was simply not there, and it was far too unreliable. With a Prusa i3 MK3s however, it…

Over the holidays, I managed to acquire some more silicon mold making material, so my plans to craft chocolate dice are back on the schedule.

As part of the holidays this year, I am upgrading my 3d printer to a new Prusa I3 MK3S, which is expected to arrive some time today. I opted for the kit version, which will give me a project to work on while I am off of work for a bit. However, this leaves my…
New video format

by
Going to try out a different format for our video sessions for the gaming – the level of engagement on each one is almost non-existent. Honestly, I didn’t expect anything else – it is a long dry session of watching other people play a game. But after some prompting, it was suggested that one issue…
Holiday Shopping

Trying a new strategy this year, since the kids are old enough to start taking responsibility for presents. For each of them, I gave them a task of making a list of presents they wanted to find for other people – parents, relatives, each other, etc. For both, I gave them a basic price range,…
