PapyrusBrigade<p>With Doug Ford losing his bid to demolish Toronto's bike lanes this week, I make a shirt using a scrap of bike themed fabric I had.</p><p>I cut it on the bias for stretch, and extended the fabric with some scraps of light blue. </p><p>The body came together quickly. But after wrestling with how to properly finish the neck and arm holes, I realised I needed to read some actual instructions. The internet is still a pretty good place to learn. </p><p>The end result is quite comfy. </p><p><a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Bikestodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Bikestodon</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Sewing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Sewing</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Making" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Making</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Toronto" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Toronto</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Biketo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Biketo</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Cycleto" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Cycleto</span></a></p>

lime<p>It is done \o/</p><p>This is a goodbye present for my friend and colleague, who will resign her job next week. She is a huge <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Minecraft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Minecraft</span></a> fan, so I made her an <a href="https://beige.party/tags/axolotl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>axolotl</span></a> out of epoxy resin, put it in a fancy resin cube and lit the whole thing up with addressable LEDs. I would have used simple fairy lights, but I didn't have any 🙈 ... So I used what I found in my cupboard, which was WS2812B's and an Arduino Nano.</p><p>Making the axolotl was a bit of an experimental adventure, but it worked well.</p><p>I call it cute-alotl, because it turned out way too cute 🙈 </p><p>It has two USB ports at the back, one for programming the Arduino and the other for power. Unfortunately the Arduino cannot power the required 1.5A for the LEDs.</p><p>It also has glow in the dark powder mixed into two back walls, so it will continue to glow when powered off.</p><p>1/</p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/epoxyresin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>epoxyresin</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/resinart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>resinart</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Minecraft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Minecraft</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>electronics</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/making" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>making</span></a></p>
Quixoticgeek<p>Today has been a good at the maker space, one member was rebuilding their bbq in the welding area, another was repairing a fan, I was working on my little d-bit cutters, and a group of young students were working on doing the composite lay up of a part for a solar powered boat.</p><p>I love the way people are working on such varied and interesting projects. The community of support and knowledge sharing is also wonderful. </p><p>Today has been a good day. </p><p><a href="https://social.v.st/tags/Making" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Making</span></a> <a href="https://social.v.st/tags/MakerSpace" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MakerSpace</span></a></p>
Quixoticgeek<p>Things! I made things!! I pair of custom D bit cutters. The top one is 88° and designed for deburring 90° holes. The lower one is 92° and is for milling mitre channels in brass. </p><p>They still need hardening, and sharpening, and in the case of the deburring one, gluing into the handle. </p><p>But I'm pleased with where I got them to today. </p><p>Finally actually achieved something in the workshop. Been stuck in such a rut recently. </p><p><a href="https://social.v.st/tags/Making" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Making</span></a> <a href="https://social.v.st/tags/Machining" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Machining</span></a> <a href="https://social.v.st/tags/MakersHour" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MakersHour</span></a></p>

Quixoticgeek<p>Whilst I've not been making much recently. I did reorganise my member box. I used to have one 35l XL really useful box with everything in it. I've now added a 9l box and put all my machining tools in there. For most projects I only need this box, and it's a lot easier to grab from the shelf and take to the machines. I may want to 3s print some organiser bits in there for the collets etc... too. But for now. It's a good quality of life improvement.</p><p><a href="https://social.v.st/tags/Making" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Making</span></a> <a href="https://social.v.st/tags/Machining" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Machining</span></a> <a href="https://social.v.st/tags/ReallyUsefulBox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ReallyUsefulBox</span></a></p>
