  @yvan@toot.ale.gd twin headed wooden thing, yeah! Pretty sure they're the same for the cr10, too

  Umm, no, they flew around it, not landed. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cj60nkd8nrko

  @recantha@mastodon.social but hey, democratising technology to allow access and learning for all...

  @Maker_of_Things@cupoftea.social so much chipboard in this one. And the feet are under the arms, but they're a separate module that's badly nailed to the main body - I expected a cross bar that went from front foot to front foot!

  By the way, any furniture makers out there; Why is there a black, woven plastic, sheet on the underside of sofas and am chairs? What is the purpose, other than to collect loose change and crumbs? #makersHour

  Ming update: she's a little more active, but still floppy and sleeping a lot. She's on two lots of painkillers still, so she's probably fairly stoned. She IS eating, little and often, and finished off the last of her rescue fluids from a saucer by herself. She's washing, but she hasn't slapped valencia in ages, and she's still not right. Hoping it's the painkillers, and that when we withdraw them, her appetite remains.

  #makersHour lovely peeps, alas I shall not be in attendance. Thoroughly shattered thanks to what's been going on with ming. Keep falling asleep. Hopefully I'll catch you next week 👍

  Valencia is cross that poorly Ming is getting all the attention, so she stole my phone and took a selfie #CatsOfMastodon #cats

  Took the back off a p1s trying to locate the squeak that's tripping force sensor 1. Failed to fix, but it's at least oiled up nicely.

  Autowok: @MakersHour Q1: Say hi, and tell us what you’ve been doing this week. #MakersHour Took the back off one of my printers, trying to fix an intermittent error. I don't think i solved it, but the printer is freshly lubricated now, at least!

  @MakersHour@cupoftea.socialAutowok: @MakersHour Q2: Were you a maker as a child? If so, what? #MakersHour I've always made stuff. Changing a computer game contents using a paperclip was my first, but all through my time working with #playschemes and play buses we made things, and my mum ran a soft toy business who supplied the local Lions chapter with lions for a long time, and i helped with that too.

  @MakersHour@cupoftea.socialAutowok: @MakersHour Q3: How many tools do you have? To the nearest significant figure… #MakersHour Haha ha haha wow, erm, few hundred, if I include every screwdriver and hex key!

• Post #733338

  Autowok: @MakersHour Q4: If you are struggling with a make, what do you do to over come it? #MakersHour Pretend it doesn't exist until the Idea Worms threaten rebellion, then get to research!

  #projecthailmary releases in cinemas today. Thanks to my health, I can't do cinemas. Really really want to see this film like almost no other before it. *sigh* will have to grab it on stream.

  Crescent moon. With my phone. #photography

  Ming isn't well. Not washing or eating. Not drinking much. Got poo in her fur and had to be showered, which she didn't fight. Hasn't corrected her messy fur since. Vet tomorrow, but I'm rather worried. And skint. She did eat Greek yoghurt from my finger, but not from a saucer.

  Ming has been admitted for tests. She's lost almost half a kilo (she's still 4kg, she's not skinny)

  @MakersHour@cupoftea.socialAutowok: @MakersHour Q5: They say "The pen is mightier than the sword", what would you make to prove that right or wrong? #MakersHour Gunblade, obviously!

  "Auto leveling failed, the task has been stopped" force detected on sensor 1. Again and again. Grrr. Printing now, but it's annoying.

  Took ming to the vet today, one of her ear polyps took a claw during an itch and made it bleed. Despite cleaning the wound, it's got really inflamed, so in she went. Got some steroid drops and there's some oral steroids as a backup. £105.

  AutoWok on #makershour: I may not be here tonight, hectic here at the moment and part of it is printing, so I'm trying scheduling. Anyway, children, without a doubt. Or maybe the music egg that rotates a night sky over simple versions of ancient landmarks as the music box inside plays.

  AutoWok on #makershour: There's a couple near me, but they're mostly fabric craft. Nothing wrong with it, it's just not my field. I'd like them to stock filament, but then i don't actually go outside very much so I doubt I'd be a customer.

  AutoWok on #makershour: A3 I made my own detailing brushes from a toothpick, cotton, superglue and a few stolen bristles from another brush!

• Post #673713

  AutoWok on #makershour: A4 I am not. Why? The aforementioned not going out of the house very often. Not through lack of desire.

  Addressed to the household by name, individually referring to us by our first names as if they're familiar with us. Enough to make our skin crawl. Euw. No phone number attached. Scared I'll ring and ask what country Farage is in this time. Notable there's no candidate mentioned. #ukpolitics

  #makersHour really sorry, forgot, hectic here again. About to eat, too...
