Alright, finally part 4 into this series! Last time we ended with all of the model halves glued together. This time, we get to deal with one of the byproducts of that: the model gap. [picture of model

This past weekend I was at California Extreme, and man was it a lot of fun! In case you're wondering, California Extreme is an annual arcade expo in (where else?) California. There's tons of pinball machines

Apparently I don't pay attention to things happening in the community, because I hadn't even noticed until now that I (along with some other fine folks) was featured in a couple other steemiter's (probably

So after last time where I heated and carved the pieces to give them a more passable appearance, I still had one problem left - namely, a bunch of pieces. For reference, here's what that looked like: The

Sorry it's been a while since my last post, life has been pretty busy unfortunately! But I'm back with my second post to this series, and today I'm addressing some of the issues from last time. Specifically

Just a fun little model I found over at Pinshape. Here's my attempt at it: And on the build platform: Of course what good would it be if you couldn't hear it??? Here's a short sample of my wonderful musical

I've been exploring my creative side more recently, so for the past few days I've been working on this forest dragon model created by user dutchmogul on thingiverse. It's a very new thing for me and while

@rok-sivanate wrote a great post a few days ago about scarcity mindset and crypto, it's definitely worth the read. In a nutshell, he talks about using crypto and the blockchain (in particular Steemit)

I know I'm not the first to admit that as great as Bitcoin is, it still has it's share of problems. I also believe that we should actively discuss these problems where appropriate since otherwise the protocol

It seems like you can't make any references to Bitcoin without someone inevitably making a reference to tulip mania or that it's some variation on a ponzi scheme, and saying Bitcoin is in this huge speculative

So I ran a 3d print last night, and in the morning I woke up to this beautiful bit of plastic carnage: There was some debris in the back: And don't forget the nozzle: I'll be honest, when I started the

These ones always make me smile: Thanks for your support! I'll continue looking for new/interesting ideas to write about (I already have some in mind!), but I am also happy to take any suggestions for

Hi Steemit! I've been poking around the site, writing a couple blog posts/comments and such for about a week now and I figured I should probably take some time to actually introduce myself. Let's start

If you're like me, with the recent surge in Bitcoin you may have considered cloud mining as an alternative to buying it at market price. On the surface it makes sense - you pay for a mining contract which

Just thought I would share this fun little print I did recently... It's a marble machine! Although I guess technically it doesn't use marbles - it actually uses 9.5mm ball bearings, but whatever. It's

What is the best way to get new followers on Steemit and to give the most to our following? Will you read this post because you might learn from my experience in making nearly every kind of mistake possible

So this is something I've struggled with a lot: why didn't I buy Bitcoin back when it was cheaper? I'd be rich right now! I'd have more money, more financial freedom, more everything. Why didn't I make
