Whew, that is one wordy title, but I literally can’t think of any way to condense it anymore… I am currently building a more efficient and less labor-intensive way of vacuum pumping my vacuum-sealed bags (check out my previous post). Anyway, I was originally planning on using a hydraulic actuator to push the …

So, we are in full swing of the process of packing and moving to my new home. This isn’t our first rodeo, so we have a bit of experience on what to expect, and how to conduct the move. One of the few new products that we are using this time is the vacuum sealed …
I finally found a good source for elastic bands. This roll should cover my needs for the foreseeable future, or at least until I get these 500 parts out. Here is the plan.

I need to make a decision. The elastic at the back of the mask can be one of three materials, each with its pros and cons. A. Rubber Band Price per Part: Link Pros: Cheap, Easy to Sanitize Cons: Look Cheap, Might be Uncomfortable if Worn For Long Periods of Time B. Velcro Link Pros: …
Here we have it. More than a month after starting this project, I finally have the finished product! It has been a long time in the making, and I have dreamed of this completion. I finally got the visors from Mr. Kwon from Fabrico. Exactly 500 priced at 60 cents apiece, equating to a grand …
“Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away” – The Beatles I don’t know about that, but yesterday I did laser cut the Bill Cipher Wheel from Gravity Falls that will serve as the clock face. I really liked how it turned out. I drew the shapes that is associated with the wheel by hand, …
I think this part of the process is pretty self-explanatory. All my work yesterday led up to this job. I finally got it to work with a bit of work and a lot of luck. It still is not even close to a good solution the problems I am having, but that will take some …
