A closely cropped shot of a Chrysler minivan showing the front grille, bumper, license plate, and a partial license plate frame with the underlined text "Millenium Falcon". The license plate a California blue plate with the number (E)792098. I only mention this level of detail to give the visually impaired the same chance of stealing my identity based on a cop plate from another state that my dad stole in college sometime in the 80s.
A video of a voron trident 3d printer in operation.
A printed flow rate test sitting on the print bed of my voron trident looking more like spaghetti than a good print.
A massive two story painted mural on the side of a brick building with a two columns of pro union / pro labor statements. The first column: “Protect your interest” “Register and Vote” “Join COPE, COPE works for you.” The second column: “Buy union label” “Patronize union shop card” “Use union services” “The job you save may be your own”
A screenshot of the Immich app interface indicating that it is syncing 90981 total items with only 322 completed.
Three samples of a 3d printed radius gauge for the back of a set of calipers sitting on a 3d printing bed. One is attached to calipers to indicate how the tool works, another is sitting right side up but not attached to calipers to show the relief to fit the caliper bolts, and a third is flipped over to show the embedded label that has the equation required to use the tool.
A screenshot of the freecad user interface showing a model that has two recessed cylindrical pockets. The pocket parameters are open in the window and show that it is has the type: "two dimensions", the first length is 3.5mm, and the second length is -0.5mm. This creates a feature that is 3.5mm deep with the lower 3mm of the cylinder pocketed and the top 0.5mm of the cylinder remaining solid.
A pic of the underside of a large single layer 3d print showing good line adhesion and even texture.
A FreeCAD window with an sketcher error showing the notification panel centered at the very bottom of the window overlaying the Report viewer.
The control panel user interface in freecad, the notification area tab is highlighted to show its settings. There are a variety of settings in the form of labeled checkboxes and input fields. These allow disabling or modifying the settings for the notification window and what is displayed there, but other an input field for the width of the notification window there are not settings guiding placement or location.
A golden retriever is lying on a light-colored rug near a glass door, looking a bit sad or tired. In front of the dog is a metal water bowl with a pink outer edge decorated with paw prints and bone shapes. The dog appears to be resting but has a longing or disappointed expression.
A screenshot of FreeCAD showing a simple rack for holding spools of wire. The feature tree shows that I have not been diligent or responsible with naming my features.
A stack of simplified gridfinity bases sitting on a 3d printer bed. The bases that have margins on the side that custom fit them to the drawer dimensions.
A two sided, maybe magical, die showing the N face.
A small blue 3d printed die showing the Y or N on its two faces. It's clearly so much cooler than flipping a boring old coin.
Two gnome game pieces sitting on the bed of a 3D Printer. The left gnome is all in blue and has long braids sticking out of their hat. The gnome on the right is in red and holding a lantern with a large beard covering their stomach.
A video of bees busily flying to and from three beehives in a small overgrown apiary. If you look closely their legs are covered with yellow pollen on their return.
An old 10V 5VA doorbell transformer mounted to a round electrical box cover. The neutral and hot leads come out the back and rest on the stone countertop. There is no ground wire to be seen as it does not exist.
A close-up of a bee colony on a honeycomb frame, with numerous bees crawling over the frame. The frame shows a pretty solid presentation of an arch of capped honey, an arch of pollen, and a center area of brood.
A cute, cartoonish hamster with a unicorn horn is holding a heart in its paws, surrounded by flowers and leaves. A small potion bottle, adorned with a heart is sitting next to her. Stars and hearts float in the sky above her. One weird deformed fish-bird also floats in the sky to make sure everyone knows that no one with any aesthetic sensibility had any hand in creating this and it’s the machine regurgitation of actual art.
The balance cock (a cock is a bridge attached on only one side in watchmaking) sitting next to the balance wheel showing an intact and un-bent, but clearly unattached, hair spring.
The clean seagull st36 movement parts laid out flat on a sheet of clean white paper on my workbench.
Yuck. A 250ml wide mouth mason jar with completely cloudy water. Hazy shadows of what are probably watch parts are seen at the bottom.
The same st36 movement as before in the same vise. The movement is now mostly stripped with very little still on it. But the pallet fork and pallet fork bridge remain. The blue varnished screws of the pallet fork bridge are removed and sit atop the bridge.
An ST36 movement in a small 3d printed vise. The only disassembly done so far is the removal of the reverse threaded screw from the crown wheel. The screw sits on the crown wheel upside down.
The various components of a disassembled ST36 pocket watch movement all laid out in a 3D printed tray.
Two filament swatches sitting on the top of a workbench surface. One looks pretty decent. Not perfect but at a better than 90% quality. The other is hot garbage. Separating at the walls, rough and melted, truly one of the worst prints I’ve ever printed.
a graphic cut away of the tool head on the new qidi plus4 with the text "integrated throat nozzle design" and with a blue outline highlighting a hot end that looks like a bambu clone.
A set of six watchmakers screwdrivers sitting evenly spaced along a row in a mostly *vertical* orientation in a simple 3d printed stand, on a workbench. The screwdrivers are only identified by the color of the knob at the end of the screwdriver. Behind each screwdriver is a container for spare tips for each size. The containers have a rubber o-ring around each that matches the corresponding screwdriver knob. A small Iggy the Bigfoot logo graces the front of the stand. An ST36 pocket watch movement sits in a 3d printed movement holder in the foreground, in the background is a Weishi No. 1000 timegrapher.
An animated gif showing a stealthburner tool head from a voron trident 3d printer marching back and forth across a part being printed on a print bed. The part below shows that the color has changed from a marble white to a bright yellow in the middle of this layer indicating that the program did an automatic pause for the filament change.
A sample set of Moebius oils next to an American quarter dollar coin. The oils are labeled 9010, HP1300/9104, 8200, and 941. Supposedly this is what you need…
Four jars of honey. The left is almost a coffee color, very dark and opaque. The middle is two small jars stacked with an amber, medium color and is translucent. The right is a very light color and pretty transparent.
A light, almost champagne, colored honey canned in four and eight ounce quilted ball jars.
A pile of new potatoes, mostly Yukon golds and Masquerades. The potatoes are freshly dug and I cleaned and sitting on a garden bed.
A closed “rugged” style case sitting on a workbench. The case is mostly a dark gray color with the latches in an accented yellow-green and a cutout in the lid in the design of the pine64 logo showing the same yellow-green inners.
An overlay on the r/ghostery subreddit says “Unreviewed Content This community has not been reviewed and might contain content inappropriate for certain viewers.

The post is partially obscured, the remainder that can be seen is a post by u/DolanGrayAyes titled: Ghostery is not blocking ads on Youtube The visible content is “since yesterday I noticed the extension for chrome is not working properly, they block the visual part of the ads, but you still have to wait a few seconds and hear them. do vou” Obviously very harmful.
A closeup shot of honeybee comb showing a few young bees chewing their way out while the nurse bees mill about.
a screenshot of my linkding installation showing just how similar it looks to pinboard. It has a search bar at the top, a fairly basic list of links on the left and a huge list of tags on the right. It's not as "designed" as Linkwarden, but its simplicity is way more functional for me.
A Kitchenaid 600 mixer with the top cover removed and exposing the motor, control board, and gearbox.
An apple watch showing Plan: No SIM Status: No Connection
A medium quality photo of the top cover of the storage compartment on the light cycle car. It has indications of 3D Printing but would certainly pass muster for a casual observer and might not even be noticed by someone who wasn’t always looking for layer lines.
Two half pint bins of blueberries being held by children’s hands.
Two bird feeders suction cupped to a window. One is perfectly round. The other is melted into a distorted mess.
A photo facing up towards the canopy. Filtered light and little hints of blue come through the foliage of a pair of apple trees.
A photo of Snoqualmie falls and the Salish Lodge, which stood in for the Great Northern Hotel in exterior shots when shooting David Lynch’s Twin Peaks. Wildflowers adorn the hill in the foreground.
A queen bee in the center of a photo of a hive frame. The queen is surrounded by a bunch of worker bees. Nectar can be seen shining in the cells beneath them.
Two white water lily blossoms with a yellow center and hints of pale pink against a background of their foiliage.
A flat screen tv showing a detailed image of the head of an ant.
A queen bee surrounded by her attendants on a frame from a beehive.
A transparent black Anbernic RG353VS sitting on a countertop with the loading screen from Super Mario Brothers 3 on the screen.
A small wild rabbit sitting on a grassy path.
A queen on a frame of bees. You did a good job on the first hive build out. Do you have it in you to do another?
A carton of eggs showing a bunch of tan and blue and olive colored eggs of all sizes.
A 14 year old gray kitty napping in the sun on a table covered in a bright red and pink table cloth. Her fur is lit up from laying in the full sun. The screen of the sunporch is seen behind her and beyond that the edge of the forest.
A golden retriever sitting on a lawn. She’s shot in as if a portrait with only her head and chest in the frame. She’s in the shadows but it’s a clear sunny day based on the lighting of the trees behind her. Her tongue hangs from her mouth in a contented smile of sorts.
A close up shot of a langstroth frame the queen is seen in the lower third and the rest of the frame is filled with workers.
A yellow and black bumblebee snacking from a pink rhododendron flower.
