    Got started on a new angel drawing! 😃 Originally, the docahedron was going to instead be a sphere, but I’m really glad I settled on the docahedron core, since it gives a nice little contrast to the smooth form of the rings!

    I finally decided on what my next keyboard build will be, a travel variation of one of my existing designs. I’m going to take a spare circuit board from my last one (damn minimum order quantity!!!), break it in two and throw away the numpad part, then laser cut and/or 3D print a case for it that’s as thin as I can pull off. I have thin, blank keycaps that are PBT, a polyester plastic, so they should respond well to having Cricut infusible ink being heated by my laser. My red never comes out more than a saturated pink, but I’m going to send each one through twice to do a two-color design based on the old Timex Sinclair, possibly the world’s worst computer keyboard, but one with some cool identifying legends. Seriously you guys. The T/S1000 (aka ZX-81) was literally so bad that half the design is BASIC commands on a layer, simply so you wouldn’t have to type “GOTO” and other three- and four-letter words.

    Ordered a new wind indicator for my sailboat. The old one doesn’t spin freely anymore, must have been damaged by some high winds over the last couple weeks or something. I am hoping it arrives in time for me and my buddy to figure out how to install it this weekend.
