The Project Workbench: May 2013
http://mattmunson.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 24, 2013. TARDIS Build Update - Part 13. Painting is now well under way, and this post sort of focuses on that effort. You don't have thirty bucks to spare? Well then, don't paint. The money you spend on that respirator could very well save your life. Best money you will ever spend. And if you're thinking "Yeah, but lung cancer happens to OTHER people. People who spray paint all day." Wrong. With that PSA out of the way, let's cut to the chase. That paint really brings the tardis together!

Wednesday, December 24, 2014. Asking For Legal Help On Social Networks and Online Forums Is A Terrible Idea. In this post, I'm going to write down a few thoughts I've had over the years about the topic of seeking legal advice online from non-lawyers. But first, I'll start with a brief and concise summary of the entire post, in case people are fans of TLDR:. Do not ask people online for help with your legal problems. Hire a lawyer. The End. I've seen the following scenario unfold dozens, if not hundreds o...

Thursday, July 25, 2013. Dexter props - Kill Knife, Blood Slide Box, ID and Wallet. If you're a fan of the Showtime program "Dexter" then you'll recognize all of these as THE iconic props from the show. It's not a very prop heavy show, that's for sure, but if there are a few pieces that are memorable from it. it would be these. Shown here are the Blood Slide Box, the Kill Knife, and the ID and Wallet. I've since forgotten where I got this ID and wallet holder, but they are really great. I believe the...

The Project Workbench: Superman Returns Costume - The Project That Simply Will Not Die.

Friday, August 7, 2015. Superman Returns Costume - The Project That Simply Will Not Die. Regular readers of my blog will know that the Superman Returns costume build has been the longest running project here. I started it in maybe 2007. Much of the delays are caused by me becoming frustrated. There are MANY technical challenges to getting this suit finished. Many. The good news is that I have a mold taken from a screen used cape, so the micro diamond pattern is on lock down. Which also presented it's own...

Monday, September 29, 2014. I was recently asked to write a brief bio of myself, re my experience as a maker of things. I wanted to post it here, since I thought it turned out decently.

The Project Workbench: April 2013

Sunday, April 28, 2013. TARDIS Build Update - Part 10. Welcome back for update 10 on my TARDIS build. But first, a bit of a PSA. Had my thumb been about two inches in the other direction, or had the piece of wood pushed my hand a tiny bit over, I wouldn't be typing this blog entry. I'd be in the hospital recovering. Racking up medical care bills. I started by getting the pyramid aligned on top of the base. You can see from this pic how uneven the edge is. I then trimmed it down roughly, using a coping saw.

Monday, January 26, 2015. MattMobile - More Gun Door Progress and Drive Shaft Tunnel Work. January of 2015 is shaping up to be a very productive month in the history of the MattMobile. In hindsight, 2014 was pretty slow, but I accomplished MANY great things on many other fronts. The MattMobile definitely languished, though I am hoping to correct that this year. One of the tasks that has been on the todo list is knocking out the two circular windows on the canopy. And now back to the gun doors. Here's the...

Thursday, January 30, 2014. Before I start this blog post, I must give a shout out and heads-up to a fellow Batmobile builder, Tim. Tim is building the BatBerry, and has been elegantly blogging the heck out of his build. If watching someone document both creativity and tenacity, then Tim's blog is for you. Http:/ batberry.wordpress.com/. I learned recently that a physical mockup is a million times more valuable than just measuring stuff out. Little details are easy to overlook, and you can very easil...
