  1. When I bought a 3D printer quite a few people said to me “Isn’t that just a waste of time, won’t you just be printing useless nonsense?” And I pointed out that 3D printing is incredibly useful and lets you create practical, functional solutions to problems. To prove my point, here is my latest print. The problem was I didn’t have a model of the Liberator from Blake’s 7, and now I do. #Blakes7 #Liberator #3DPrinting

  2. Growing up, although we never talked about it much, I knew my Granda had been a navigator in WW2, flying on Liberators. There was a photo he always had on display, of his crew next to the plane.

    A couple of weeks ago we visited the Imperial War Museum in Duxford, and I got to see one of the few remaining Liberators for the first time.

    It was amazing to see it, but also very sobering in all sorts of ways.
