Update 2 – Getting Set Up Part 1: Lighting Before I get started making video I need to sort out my studio, starting with the lighting. Here’s a shot of my old setup: The ‘greenscreen’ is a green bedsheet stapled to some 2X4s, I have 4 lights, 2 of them clasic Redheads at 32k color […]
I wanted to teach the kids airbrushing, and I’ve always wanted to make a lightsaber. We made them in pairs, with each pair painted to the right age level. Geena wanted Anakin’s from ‘Clone Wars’ and Rose wanted Obi Wan’s from ‘A New Hope’, so it worked out perfectly. Anakin’s was new and shiny, easy to paint. […]
If I knew what I was getting into when I started… who am I kidding, I still would have done it. Anyway, here’s a video overview:
BMO is a character from our favorite family show, Adventure Time (if you have kids it’s a MUST watch). I made a family project in 2015 to teach my wife and oldest daughter to draw/animate on their Cintiq’s by creating an animated BMO in Flash/AS2 and get it working on a 5″ LCD/Raspberry Pi with […]
Thought I would share with you guys a few of the 3D printed objects we have around the house, some of which are very practical, some not so much. On my Workbench: Small parts box From Rose’s (my oldest) Desk: Marker stand, 3D pokemon game deck From Geena’s (my youngest) Room: Fantasy swords with sword […]
This was supposed to be cooler, but I blew the voltage step-up converter/regulator mucking about integrating a lithium battery charger, so I’m running the power directly through an output on the board and now the blutooth module isn’t getting the right voltage to work. I have parts on order but for now it’s still pretty […]
So I had a bunch of extra parts laying around and decided to do a 3D Printed family robot building class with some friends for giggles.These are the same as the xMatters robot in one of my above posts, except for the programming. These ones walk around until the ultrasonic range finder (the eyes) detects an […]
Zelda: Breath of the Wild – 3D Printed Sword and Tablet (and stacks of rupees in the pouch to give to her friends) Rick and Morty: 3D Printed Plasma Pistol and Portal Gun
Test 1: Lower power engine on the MK1 (same one in post above): Test 2: High Power Engine on the MK2: The MK2 is slightly wider, requires less pieces, and is slightly shorter, the fit for the engine is also better and the nose cone tolerances are looser to make the parachute deploy easier.
