  1. So as part of a personal #project to make A Thing, I needed to make a component Sub-Thing. And I couldn't think of a good way to do it. Part of it involved 3D-printing, but there was something else needed, and I wasn't sure what I could use to do that part of it.

    And after a few days, my brain (which works by batch jobs, for weird research requests like this) said "Hey, remember that episode of How It's Made that showed a jeweller doing enamelling? Something like that might work."

    So I just did it for the first time, and damn if it doesn't work. It turned out about 90% success, with a few minor blemishes here and there, and I'm certain I can do better on my next try.

    How It's Made is a Canadian national treasure.

  6. Germany‘s first and only broom factory on the Fediverse seizes the moment, produces a rainbow broom and becomes German Mastodon‘s darling in the process.

  9. A quick #howitsmade for this #blacksmith leaf while I eat lunch. You start with a square bar. This is 1/2"/12mm. You heat it up and forge a point at the tip. Next you hit it over the side of the anvil with half face blows (hammer halfway overlapping the anvil) and rotate it 90° and do the same thing again.

  13. This was fascinating.

    Reusing the cashmere material from a damaged sweater, deconstructing it, cleaned it and reworked it into a new sweater.

    The pattern making was true art + craft. Weaving machine is fascinating, complex.

  14. Did you miss my stream yesterday? Well, it lives on as VOD, which I have embedded on my website (because why drive traffic to YouTube when I can drive it to myself?). Catch up on the making of "A Hidden Room in My Mind Palace" from my recent album:

  17. A while back
    @OneBlindMouse and I agreed to post more process threads about our music, so I am getting started on that. Let's talk today about "Apocalypse Pilgrim," a track from my compilation album Is Life in Dreams Are Made Of?

  18. Koukám na #HowItsMade a je tam blok o diamantech.

    "Až se příště podíváte do výlohy, pochopíte, proč si kámen vašich snů nemůže dovolit."

    A tak... Netřeba přece být hned pasivně agresivní.

  19. K #HowItsMade na Max...

    Mají v tom trochu bordel. 😄 Prvních 8 dílů první série je nějaká Remix verze zaměřena na sporty.

    Né, že by to vadilo, ale ty názvy dílů tvrdí něco jiné 😆

  20. Jak si to člověk pouští na tom Maxu, tak je celkem vtipné, jak se to vlastně připravovalo tak, že v půlce budou reklamy 😄 #HowItsMade

  24. I made a video on how I bent this Fallible Luv thing I have been wanting to make for so long. It's nice an bright, and I bent it with my own fallible human hands.

    I used to think human fallibility was a negative way of looking at the world, but now I think it's a good thing. Rationality is sometimes boring.

    Hey this tube has no neon in it- just Argon gas and a drop of mercury :). I did use neon electrodes though- so I guess that makes it neon?

  26. I just rented a huge bdsm playground for 3 days in Spain starting today. We had a few empty days in Madrid and I guess I couldn't think of anything better than adding 1000 km to our road plan.

    The good part is - I'll be able to play with lots of cages, chains and crosses hmmm...

    anyway, if anyone here is in the area between Alicante and Valencia - contact me, let's play and make some hot content.

  30. My favorite song? Well, like picking a favorite child but unlike that situation, no one's feelings are gonna be hurt so... I'd say "Psychedelic Ghost Story" overall but it's close! "The Mystic Swims..." is very close for me and there's nothing I don't like.

    But I guess "Dream Vessels on the River of Time" works the least well for me in hindsight.

  31. And the #MPC of course... 85% of the effects on the album are from the MPC. I used a bunch of its plugin synths. Its #workflow and capabilities shaped the album from beginning to end. And unlike #Ableton, which is an incredible program, I am able to get into true #flowstates with the MPC.
