Given the number of car projects I have lined up, I figured I would buy myself a Christmas present and open up a brand new can of worms 🙂

VW O7K 2.5L inline 5 engine is in the shop!!

$250 and a bit of a hike to get it but I met a cool seller.

Got the harness labeled up and stripped off all the stuff I won’t be using.

Next up some 3D scanning.

This particular one will be going in my D2 S8 along with a turbo and a six speed manual.

Working on a family of LowPoly versions of our pets.

The orange one is printed in TPE rubber and has become a favorite chew toy for Muppet.

When my print farm isn’t doing real work, it’s making Christmas decorations.

Snowflakes, Deathsars and Tree toppers

Upping my 3D printing game.

New Phrozen Mega 8KS large format reading printer and cute station arrived today. Wash station is on back order.

Upgraded the cube too so alll my supplies are in the drawers with dessicant to keep open spools dry.

🙂

Also Todd Michael filled a big hole to keep some heat in. Thanks

Some assembly required!

I also ‘unf**ked’ my Lab cube so I have somewhere to work.

8 fu***ng love this 3D printer! (Bambi Pabs Carbon)

This is a screen recording of my IPhone while I am sat on my couch at home and it’s beavering away. It also can detect print defects like spaghetti and it pauses and sends me a message. The software is top shelf and it just all works right out of the box with no issues or tricky setup

Worth every penny of my bosses money :)

Following up on my Thanksgiving post about shifting my focus to me. I have been busy in my ass all year to be ready fand r winter, winter being race car build season that stretches trough spring to summer.

I worked on the building to keep the city happy. I worked on my tooling, I moved things about a lot so I can have an efficient work bay.

I procured tools and worked on skills.

I sold things

Well winter came today and we have snow on the ground, I am ready (mostly)

This week I intend to launch a new YouTube series of my winter builds. The physical build will be my 1997 BMw m3 wide vacuum dry GTR with NA LS my digital build will be the manta GT/HT ((Hayabusa Tubo-HAydn Taylor)

Links later this week of my next 6-18 months.
