  If you're at #EmfCamp, you should have hydrated hours ago. I should have hydrated hours ago. Hydrate now.

  Delivery driver needed a date of birth this morning... "Date, Month, Eighty-Number" "Nineteen? Eighty-Number?" ... I was mildly dumbfounded. He asked twice.

  Super proud of Sam/LMNC this evening, irrespective of whatever the final score looks like. And his journey and posts have been a combination of chaos and joy.

  Heads up dual UK citizenship people, you may be denied entry back to Blighty after the 25th of Feb if traveling back on a non UK passport. IE passports are fine. This appears to be quite short notice, and quite stupid. https://www.reddit.com/r/ukpolitics/s/X3R9IGz88Y

  Whichever civil servant of member of the royal household pulled that gift off deserves a digestive with their morning tea. * It's shiny. * It has his name on it. * It's military adjacent (it's off a damn sub) 10/10 on the appeasment gift index.

  Updated PrusaSlicer configs finally contain profiles for the Voron Trident. And they look pretty good! Might use them as the basis for some new configs, rather than my previously tweaked Voron 1 profiles.

  An unmedicated @awfulwoman@indieweb.social just deleted her web server at #oggcamp. On purpose. 👀 She may regret this shortly.

  Cheeky ask, but does anyone have a 0.4mm Nozzle X in Volcano flavour that's going spare? Can pay pennies. UK please. #3dprinting

  @leigh_hackspace are hosting a retro day and LAN party on the 23rd of November. https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/retro-game-day-and-lan-party-tickets-1963182842730 Does your childhood smell like 8 bit, 16 bit or even 32 bit? Yearn for square pixels in a resolution you can see? We're going to bring in all our old systems (Spectrums, Commodores, Ataris, even some vintage Macs) and hook them up for people to play with. Most will have fast loading and an array of games to choose from. In ou...

  @leigh_hackspace refurbished this Santa sleigh for AIM North West. https://www.aimnorthwest.org.uk/ We stripped it back to wood, added a roof, cut the side away (with reinforcements), designed and cut a new reindeer, repainted, added upholstery, then added 12V audio and lights. It's loud. A few more bits to finish when it's dry, but it's now out on rounds. This turned in to a full Hackspace project, with input from lots of members. #santa #sleigh #sleighride #hacks...

  Been a busy weekend. Finished putting the roof on the new pod at @leigh_hackspace. We're almost done with this build. Far pod is rented, near pod is being used for metalworking (for now). The build has been a group effort, and workshops should be back to their usual dysfunctional state, as opposed to the current non-functional state by the end of the week. Main space, electronics, Pi room and social room are all still available. #hackspace #wigan #leigh #manchester #makerspace #bolto...

  "Your princess is in our castle now, Yeah she's gone." That's the roof done. Time for a coffee, then to load it. @leigh_hackspace

  @leigh_hackspace were asked to print several sets of terrain for the Tabletop Tavern Warhammer players. Used 3DQF Battleship Grey PLA, and ended up using every printer available,and several home printers. Finished with hours, *hours* to spare. On the plus side, we now know the faults and tuning needed on every printer.

  FrankenWinder printed its first Benchy at @leigh_hackspace. Donated Artillery Sidewinder X1 from 3DQF, Hemera tool head from one of our members, E3D Volcano hotend, BLTouch, and Klippered. A few refinements to go (the current .8mm nozzle is a *bit* brutal, but all we had for the Volcano), but this is now looking serviceable. Oh, and we have a second machine and another Hemera, so ... building another. That gives us *three* large(ish) format printers, including the Voron 2.4. #Hackspace #ma...

  Finally had 30 minutes to play some Trinity, got through the white door, noodled around on the other side and experienced my first death. That got weird fast, and was not the direction I expected that story to go in. Rather enjoying the writing on this one.

  I am unnecessarily excited to read that "Coyote vs. Acme" is getting a release in August.
