Weekend project: complete.

I’ve been wanting to totally overhaul my old iPod for years. Dead hard drive, dead battery, dead headphone jack, knackered case. Now it’s even better than it was when I bought it in 2006.

Personal music players peaked here… it’s just such a good device.

This $10 3D Print Saved My $10000 Telescope Setup

My Takahashi telescope and ZWO autofocuser? Not speaking. Totally incompatible. So I did what any overly caffeinated space nerd would do: I fired up the 3D printer and manifested an adapter out of thin air and PLA.

Did it work? Somehow, yes. Did I measure anything properly? No. But now the focuser talks to the telescope like they’re old friends—probably trauma bonded.

One $10 part. One $10000 rig. One dangerously false sense of engineering confidence. 🔧🧠🔭
