I recently assembled a 3D printer kit. It was actually more fun that i imagine it would be building it. I'll post some pics later when I have a chance. Im currently waiting on a part from China. Taking For-Eve-Er. But maybe in a week (or two )
Ive been alao getting back into recording music off internet sources using only my PC and a DJ mixer. Its a lot of fun and u get free music in the process.

Would like to get one of those sometime. Or maybe a CNC milling machine if there is an affordable version of that.

That's super cool!

I'm pretty sure there's kits out there, and tutorials on how you can make your own CNC machine with a Raspberry Pi and an arduino if i recall correctly.

I want to make my house into a paradise for my kittehs!.. Like platforms on the walls and tunnels and bridges and shit for them.
But.. I rent.. And will likely never be able to afford to buy a house, so this dream will likely never become a reality
-------------------- Nothing is true, everything is permissible. Our laws make law impossible; our liberties destroy all freedom; our property is organized robbery; our morality an impudent hypocrisy; our wisdom is administered by inexperienced or mal-experienced dupes; our power wielded by cowards and weaklings; and our honour false in all its points. I am an enemy of the existing order for good reasons.

A lot of times when I get a big box or multiple boxes then I make forts and tunnels for my cats. They get bored after a day or two and then I can switch them up.
You could make it, just make it all free-standing stuff. Start with a carpeted tube and fort and add one thing every month. Post pics too please!

Do...do you guys know who bubbles from Trailer Park Boys is?
He made a whole micro living attraction for people with kitties
-------------------- Only hope can give rise to the emotion we call despair. But it is nearly impossible for a man to try to live without hope, so I guess that leaves Man no choice but to walk around with despair as his companion.

Still pretty buggy, the web scraping stuff was slapped together and it runs slow and pulls some undesired stuff from some of the tables.

You're so lucky to live close to nature like that - hope you enjoy it every chance you get, because I'm super jealous.
Yeah, it's a lot of work for sure and really time consuming. I have my wife to help, but no grandparents or family in the area to help babysit. We make it work and it's getting easier and easier. I couldn't imagine trying to raise a kid while being single.
I do enjoy the nature as much as possible. My front window actually has a view of the whole Bay Area and I can see the sun setting over the bay and mountains every night and I enjoy that as much as I can. Besides that I do a lot of hiking around the bay and through San Fran. I try to get out to somewhere like Yosemite or the Avenue of the Giants at least every month or two. Last month I went through Death Valley and that was super pretty in a desolate way.
If you ever want to come visit the area and check out some awesome nature sights then let me know. I could put you up and show you some sights. I try to accommodate travelling Shroomerites when ever possible.
Ya will do! I'm trying to get out to the left coast for a bit, maybe next fall. I have to go to a wedding down south, and I'm thinking I might take all my vacation time around then and fly west for a bit. I'm sure it's spectacular out there in the fall.

pirate-blues said: South Africa seems gorgeous and kinda dangerous, and having had a little bit of experience in not so nice areas, I can safely say that the amount it really affects your day to day life, even indirectly, is crazy. Any idea of where you'd like to land?
Yeah, it is beautiful and dangerous. But we kind of pride ourselves on being tough sons of bitches. But everyone is getting pretty tired of having to look over their shoulders.
I'd firstly like to go to Cape Town. Not really that safe, but mainly just for the social atmosphere, and connections - where I live it's mostly for families and not so much for young adults.
Ideally I'd like to emigrate to somewhere...not sure where though. If it's at all even possible and WW3 doesn't break out or some crazy ass shit.
Really want to experience first world living...
South Africa's infrastructure isn't that bad in comparison with the rest of Africa, but definitely not great. Generally I feel safe where I currently live, but you still have to keep your guard up. Shit can get real.
Yeah, I believe it. I worked with an organization for a long time as kind of a software consultant. They were all over Africa in the most remote regions in like Benin, and Malawi. Whoo boy trying to get them a cohesive video conferencing platform that was in their nonprofit budget, and useable over vast swaths of the continent and in the US was a pain in the ass. The digital divide is real, for sure. There's just absolutely no infrastructure in some countries.
Cape Town seems super cool though, very cosmopolitan. I'd love to see it one day myself and dive those glorious shark infested waters

Damn, a CNC milling machine would be epic. I used to work at a company that made custom-built automated machines and they had a couple Mills. They are huge, powerful and likely very expensive.

My brother's ex-girlfriend was in the Peace Corps in Benin and he spent some time over there with her. I think they were trying to dig wells for clean water or something.
Holy crap does he have crazy stories about that place!

I'm picturing something from a kit where you could snap in a Dremel or something as the cutting tool. I have a couple of those lying around and they are able to cut through anything I'd be likely to work with.

I've recently gotten hooked on the AvE guy's channel on YouTube.
He's a millionaire from YouTube revenue and he spent a bazillion Canadian pesos on a badass CNC machine for his garage that he messes around with.
If I had my choice of any vacation anywhere in the world I would choose going to hang out with him in his shop for a week.

Damn, thats wild.
It blows my mind that YouTubers can make so much money. Wish i had the creativity to start my own channel....
One of my hobbies back in the day was video-editing to a specific song to make its own music video. I used to post on YouTube but got in trouble for using copyrighted material.

I'm putting together a standup act to take to an open mic night. I don't expect to get famous or anything but I would love to have the stage and a mic as an outlet in my life.
