What project are you embroiled in? It’s it going well? What hangups are you running into? And, dare I ask, are you having fun with it?

    Alright, like… every part of this is awesome. WaybackMachine proxy, photo scanning your shed… this is GREAT! I would like to recommend using something like OnShape instead of blender, though. I’ve never found blender to be super helpful when trying to put together diagrams and such. I used SketchUp for a bit, but found it too restrictive.

    Lastly, another web-tool I’ve found to be ENORMOUSLY helpful with optimizing building materials purchases/usage is opticutter. It was hugely helpful for my most recent cabinet building project

      Thank you! I would describe myself as intermediate at blender, so after a quick search for construction tools just decided that it’d be faster to use blender than learn a new tool and potentially be limited by whatever it supports. I’ll definitely check out opticutter though!

          Currently I’ve been scouting Craigslist for 90s tech and along with just some crt Tv and monitors found the commodore 1702 display, and a really good collection of essentially all 90s classics laserdiscs.
