  1. Do you have some time spare this weekend? Do you like making stuff?

    Come to the beautiful city of Dortmund and visit a pretty special Maker Faire within the DASA exhibition!

    Wanna have a chat about FOSS, repairability, (embedded) computing, or anything else? Do you just wanna grab a Tux / Fedora sticker?

    Meet me at booth 17 with my old friends from Fablab Lünen!

  2. Hmmmm. I just came across a recipe for #HandSalve made with #Tallow that doesn't involve essential oils -- only herbs!

    How to Make Herb Infused #TallowSalve
    November 13, 2018 by Marisa Tolsma

    "Ingredients:

    1 1/2 cups grass fed tallow balm
    1/4 cup dried comfrey leaf
    1/4 cup dried plantain leaf
    1/4 cup dried calendula flowers
    1/4 cup dried chickweed leaf
    2 tbsp beeswax

    Directions:

    - Melt tallow balm over a gentle heat until it is liquid.
    - Pour needed amount of tallow balm into a quart mason jar.
    - Add dried herbs to liquid tallow balm and stir to incorporate well.
    - Create a double boiler by placing the mason jar on a cloth inside a saucepan with water.
    - Heat the water until it comes to a low simmer.
    - Let the mason jar full of tallow balm and herbs sit in the simmering water for at least 3-4 hours, but much longer is better. I often let mine go 12 hours. Just keep an eye on it and replace water in the pan as it evaporates.
    - Strain herbs out of tallow balm using a metal strainer lined with cheesecloth.
    - Put the jar of herb infused tallow balm back into the double boiler, and return it to the gentle simmer.
    - Add the beeswax to the herb infused tallow balm.
    - Once beeswax is melted, stir to combine well.
    - Pour hot mixture into tins or jars to store.
    - Allow tins to sit until salve is solid.
    - Put lids on containers and store in a cool, dark place."

  6. @dwillobeck good of you to leave it alone! Ive seen a bald-faced wasp here in my flowerbed, but never seen a nest. Ominous, you say?! 👀😅

    I’ve come to love bumblebees and paperWasps after reading up on them. I used to have a bumblebee queen with broken wing in my care for a few months. #BumbleBeeatrice Right now, I have a guest paperWasp who can’t fly well in the terrarium I’ve made for her. #PeppaThePaperwasp

  11. @spiegelmama Thank you. I believe the default instinct of every creature is to survive. This paperWasp has done well to get on my sock. lol

    Selfishly, I’m curious to know how long she’d live in comfy captivity. Once, I took in a bumblebee queen with a broken wing (#BumbleBeeatrice ), and she lived in the terrarium for a few month.
