Bumped in to old lost friends last night who I hadn't seen for over 20 years. They had another friend and we had occassionally knocked boots a long time ago. Lots of mutual fun both knowing it wasn't more. Sadly found out they'd passed suddenly in very early 30's. Asthma. So sad. X

Got access to a #lasercutter? Did this today, grab an accurate measure and work out the height of marks needed to turn a discarded jar into a measuring device! A quick @inkscape of the measurements and then to the #lasercutter! #reuse

Tonights #sewing adventure. These bags sometimes get called "stash and go" bags, made from 2 circles and some binding. It's less good than the pictures look but a good exploratory first go! #making

Wow someone just sent me this pictures of their #HEXA #rocket build. They bought a kit but have swapped out a few parts and done an amazing paint job! #opensource

Kinda odd that the first @FreeCAD V1.0RC version I open should be on a @RaspberryPi pi400!

Just blogged about the cheapest new #Meshtastic device I've been playing with. For £9.60 the XIAO ESP32S3 Wio-SX1262 is really straightforward and easy to get up and running. #opensource #lora https://concretedog.blogspot.com/2025/03/super-affordable-960-meshtastic-xiao.html

Here's one from the blog archive. Making #3Dprinted vice jaws from pop/soda bottle filament! https://concretedog.blogspot.com/2023/10/desk-vice-restoration-3d-printed-jaws.html If you dig my random blog make me prioritise it more buy hitting that 'kofi' button on there and buying me a coffee!

I'm working hard this week on #SOURCE issue two, an experimental quarterly "pay as you feel" magazine about #opensource. As a sneak peak we'll be looking at getting started with #godot, using #logseq and #syncthing for a 2nd brain system, simple ways to contribute to #openstreetmap and the #termux application for android! Should be out in Aug (or earlier!). Issue one was an experimental issue looking at Computational Fluid Dynamics with #FreeCAD DL here.. https://concretedog.blogspot.com/2025/05/source-issue-1-out-now-computational.html?m=1Boosts welcome!

Been reading the #RepRapMicron wiki this morning. Really exciting to see this progress. It's a great example of why #opensource is brilliant in that @vik was inspired and informed by the #openflexuremicroscope design. Also love the cats section in the documentation :)https://reprap.org/wiki/RepRapMicron

Looking reasonably likely that #SOURCE magazine issue 3 will be out tomorrow! 27 pages of supercool #opensource tutorials relating to opensource hardware! I'm off for a lie down now after laying all those pages out!

@hackaday huh Miele are the only company I've ever had a cease and desist from (posted a 3D printable spare part).
