I hope everyone had a fun and safe Christmas. Mine was a big difficult with the resent loss of a family member. Did our best to keep up with traditional. As all ways the food was awesome. There was even enough left over for today. Made sure to make extra dressing. The weather was very nice, a bit of sun and no wind. After eating spent the day listening to the radio. In the evening watched three movies.
Have printed more things off with my Elegoo Mars. Have been trying out didn’t types of models and sizes. After printing off Leo from the TMNT > here. Found a He-man figure. It was bigger than Leo so didn’t want to waste too much resin. There is an option in ChiTuBox to hollow out the models. Then you can put small drain holes in so the resin inside can come out. It turned out great as you can see for yourself below. That file can be found > here.
Should have shared this all ready. A few post back talked about my Elegoo Mars and the first print I will make after the test one is Leo from the TMNT. You can see the file > here. All so in that post show the file in ChiTuBox. Well it turned out great. After it was cured. I wet sanded were the supports were attached. The glued it together with Gorilla super glue. Very happy how it turned out. You can see for yourself in the picture below. Thinking I might try and paint it. Since then have printed a few more things. Now my goal is to make my own 3D models. Have started to with Tinkercad.
The first Sunday (which was yesterday) is traditionally the day we put up your Christmas Tree. This year is much different. There is one less person around to help. So now it’s all up to me. Was hard at first but got thought it. Forgot at first we had a one string of white lights. Looks a bit odd. However still think it turned out ok.
Had the most perfect day (May 5, 2019) for the first ride of the year. My motorcycle is a, 2006 Yamaha XT 225. Have gotten it ready some many times it doesn’t take long. The tire pressure was a bit low in both but that happens every year. Got the battery in quick and had it fired up in the third starter push. It ran great. Checked everything over and seemed fine. Do have to get it inspected this year. Will get them to go over it really good. Just hope the weather stays some what fine. Want to start taking it to work.
The t-shirts I made for the YouTube channel, I’d Rather Watch Paint Dry, came in the mail the other day. Set up a Redbubble store. Wanted to see what the shirts looked in in real life. So ordered two, one of each design. Took about week and a half to be made and shipped. As for the t-shirts. Must say they look pretty good. The people I showed them to like the black one best. If you are interested is get one for yourself or some one else you can do so > here.
I hope everyone had a fun and safe Christmas. The weather here was fine. Not too cold and little wind. As all ways the food was amazing. All so as all, ways ate a bit too much. Thankfully there are many leftovers for today. Spent most of the day relaxing and listen to Christmas music. Then some TV specials.
