Day #2 of new nerdy hobby. Mixed my own maroon-ish colour today, and went a little more complex with boots/belts/buckles. Ignoring bases for now.

Pancake motor and BMG Clone fitted to my #Ender direct drive setup. A little less weight for it to throw around whilst I play with acceleration settings.

OctoPrint data in Home Assistant! Is there anything HA doesn't do??

The fan shroud helping make a...fan shroud #Skynet

I watched a great video from Sonic Spookhammer showing how to paint a NightSky Miniatures Panzer 38(t). I fancied a go, so I thought I'd challenge my FDM printer to the task (resin is cheating right? 😉) Came out pretty good for a bed slinger!

First small print with a PEI bed. Didn't stick well until I increased the bed temp to ~75

DIY DoorCam complete and fully functioning. Raspberry Pi Zero, with wide angle The Pi Hut ZeroCam, using motionEye OS and a retired iPhone 7 networked over the WiFi. #RaspberryPi

Another failed #Windows update with a lovely black screen. Gets worse every year.

Need to come up with a simple yet exciting project for my daughter's STEM/Science Fair day. I've got access to 7000 'things' at The Pi Hut warehouse...but I'm struggling with mixing simple with exciting 🤔 (plus my daughter needs to understand it and be able to explain it)

And it's complete! My most challenging print to date, hours and hours of printing gears, shafts, idlers and more. Taking it to my kid's science fair at their school tomorrow, I just hope one of the teachers appreciates the hours that went into this 😴🫠 #3dprinted #UltraDad

The code writing at 0:04 really tickled me 😄

He will be known as Terrence 💀

"Have you got a target price in mind" 🙄 No. It must have a price, what's the price? Will you just give me the damn price? Or, if you don't like that answer, £0.01 is my target. There. How does that work for you?

Designed a #gridfinity 1x1 for my #Miniware TS80 soldering iron. Managed to get all the bits on to a single 1x1. I'll upload to Printables at some point.

Yes, it's the world's most compact soldering station 😍

The SQFMI Watchy is now available in the store! We've been playing with our Watchy for a few weeks and it's a lot of fun, especially when you start bringing in your own #Arduino libraries and customising the example code. thepihut.com/products/sqfmi…

Wanted to see how Vinted works, so I bought this old, discontinued Google VR thing for a few quid. I'm so irrationality excited about receiving this dated tech!
