I am shoveling against a tide of crap today so I will have to do it next week.
Anything in particular you would like to see?
Sunday Funday
Quick post to let you all know how things are going.
Last week was my in office week so getting stuff done at home was limited since my commute one way is 45 minutes and I still have family stuff that has to be done.
This weekend was eventful, my youngest daughter’s birthday was Saturday (she is now six) and my Anniversary was Sunday. For some reason my wife has put up with my shenanigans for 18 years now. Amazing.
More amazing is it doesn’t feel like it’s been that long. We’ve known each other for 23 years now. Met in college first day, it was painting class and she walked in and I knew she was the one. Just took me a while to convince her.
Anyway, Dragon is being finished up. Have to make a UAC for it on the 5N so I am doing that now. Then the one variant that has a hand needs one built. I should have it posted up this week. I am halfway done with the Incubus as well. Once the Dragon is finished I am diving back onto the Sabutai and knocking that out ASAP.
Thankfully, things are cooling off outside because today my AC decided to break, again. Calling the repair people on Monday and hopefully it is an easy fix. Oh, and I didn’t win the lottery. Dang it.
That’s everything for now. Hope you all had a great weekend.
Tutorial Tuesday – Stamping it Out
OK, I am still having issue with loading videos here. I downloaded a plug in to handle MP4 formatting and it was loading and then crashing it at the end.
So, I am sorry, but here is the link on the Patreon to see it
Happy Birthday to Me
September 30th was my birthday and I got to celebrate it by putting together a new desk my wife got for me. My old desk was put together as a temporary solution about six years ago when I started working from home part time. The idea was I could put this one together in the shop really quick with materials I already had and then make something better later on.
Well, one think got in the way of another and I never got around to building something better. I will say, it had a LOT of usable space but it kinda dominated the room. The new desk, well, lets just say it is very cool and does everything I need it to do and has space to hold everything I need.
And yes, it even has a cupholder. There are LED lights on the riser shelves that I need to hook up, but I’m pretty happy with how it is right now so I am going to get back to work finishing the Dragon and working on the other two.
Thursday Progress Report
So there is progress to report (yay team me). The Dragon is coming along really well. Legs should be done tonight or tomorrow.
There is no progress yet on the Subatai but I am jumping on that this weekend. I also have progress on the Incubus which was going to be a surprise but I am terrible at keeping secrets
So that is everything for the week. There is also a Hollander being lined up next so hopefully that will be started by next week.
I know I have slowed down on the production. Work, honestly, has been overwhelming and I am applying to a new position that will hopefully bring some sanity back to my life. Prayers are appreciate on that one!
Tutorial Tuesday – Bevels, Boxcutter, and Unions
Due to formatting issue, the video is posted on the Patreon this time. I will have to look at add ons to support video over here or what format is supported.
Here is my first video ever. Covering beveling, Booleans using Boxcutter and HardOps and joining two object using Booleans.
I highly recommend Boxcutter and HardOps. This is not a paid endorsement or anything like that, they are just very handy and you can get it here. Well worth the price in time saved modeling and flexibility https://blendermarket.com/products/hard-ops–boxcutter-ultimate-bundle
Any questions, comments or anything, please post them up. First try so it may not be great, but I promise to try and improve.
