What have you made?

Slammed the ole lady and made a baby 6 months later he's 6 months old.

Been cracking away at my final university project, it's a 3D printer enabled bike shoe.There's a carbon fiber shank in there and the ffabric just stitches on, whole thing uses no adhesives to bond it. Tested this and it's not quite as stiff as a bike shoe, but walks pretty well. It was designed for bikepackers in mind, so that's cool. This was the first testable prototype from a improvized pattern, I'll sew some nicer stuff the next few weeks.

That's dope. So you reckon you could swap the bottom pieces out once they wore? That'd be a cool feature granted the rest of the shoe doesn't smell like dog shit at that point.

Is that a universal thing or just me? I don't normally have smelly feet but after like 2 years of wear and tear my shoes smell like straight up dog shit, no matter how much I clean them. If I wear a newer pair of shoes all day, no smellz. Old pair of shoes, dog shit. HALP.

Do you still have your rabbits?

Do you still have your rabbits?

I sold the one I restored. Still have my GTI.

Yea basically every part is replaceable. Even the fabric can be replaced separately of everything else. This is a really simple pattern to sew and sort of the secondary to my focus so far. So you could put on a thick one in the winter and thick in summer. You could also just chuck the fabric in the wash, no glues here.
Idea is that it's open source and anyone can access and modify patters as they would like. Do that for free, but could make business by selling fabric uppers, molded rubber parts, etc etc.

Veneer longboards:










A Prosolution Plus frame here:








Canoe seats: And here.

You made all that? That's very cool.

[Bunsincunsin]

did you use a torch on that table?

Yes, I used an oxy-acetylene torch to silver braze the scalloped feet.

You made all that? That's very cool.

Sure did!

A couple of newer projects:

Walnut Coffee Table






Earrings

Made this lamp out of an s13 coilover. Recently brought the collars and lower mount to work and sand blasted them and painted them the same purple as my engine bay.

So I need some furniture for my new apartment since I don't really own any. It's a small studio so a lofted bed frame is almost necessary. Looking at existing furniture, nothing really seemed like it was what I wanted or wouldn't work so I took some measurements and modeled one up in Blender to get a rough idea of how it might look and get a better understanding of what materials I'll need. I'll also build a tall bar table for eating/games whatever off of it to help hide the radiator and keep things nice and tight. Here's the mock up, now it's time to build it!
